Post Description

Progressive rock as a philosophy of life! A wonderful vision! For many prog fans still until today almost inconceivable! But times are changing to happiness, because SUPER DRAMA do not attempt this vision be more just vision to allow, but actually to realize: "we intensely feel the world as an artist and are grateful to receive music in our special human constellation and to express, in the all' this resonates." But now we, the listeners on the series, are to follow these vibrations - and we will enjoy it!

However we should look back before a little, because only a so conceptually sophisticated publishing philosophy such as the PROGRESSIVE from the House of promotional records seems designed, appearing in bold Digi-book, progressive musically highly demanding sound Cosmos, which is equipped with exceptionally descriptive text including a sophisticated conceptual history, which is connected to the album, possible in Germany to make such extremely expensive. The label was the first step to Oliver Wenzler with "the?Book"the seven STEPS TO THE GREEN DOOR - a CD which also strictly limited with"bloody", hand forged Krestovozdvizhensky nail and an over 50seitigen Digi-book was published. In the book was the "sound" story about questions of responsibility to read self or a higher power in English and German language.

Now, two years later, is a thick, this time 60seitiges Digi-book in front of me, which carries the title "the promise" and the already a lady with high academic honors, Mrs Prof. Woisetschläger, determines in advance with SUPER DRAMA again: "in the tradition of the old Progheroen SUPER DRAMA presents excellent compositions with their first work, which must not hide behind the big names. Sophisticated rhythms, combined with rich sound, emotional vocals and the music very appealing texts make an exciting sound noise." And you must have not graduated guaranteed, to hear what verbally with gives us woman Professor on the way.

The "Progheroen summoned up here" are really more than full-sounding name, by CARAVAN of SOFT MACHINE and BEGGAR'S OPERA to GENESIS ranging. But it also a very demanding prog band in the background sounds, which naturally forms the roots of SUPER DRAMA : ARGOS! Because with the keyboardist and vocalist ROBERT GOZON as well as bass player and flutist THOMAS KAMORUDEEN, two ARGOS musicians behind the band, which deals on their behalf with the "unfolding of all being" and behind these pants not religious phantasms, but on "the promise" sought the wisdom of Rilke's hiding: "In us God hits the eyes", to get to the bottom and you in an almost 60minutgen giving artwork and content and meaning. An album so inherent in not just any tragedy, but that makes the attempt, with the right stage and the corresponding musical and textual dramaturgy to recognize tragic and deliberately to avoid, because it makes knowledge prior to faith and not waiting with ready-made answers, but with still open questions. I'm wondering how they the little Prince was already, but just not the Bible, which rather spread works of the Devil with their apparent moral answers, that allows for no more questions and with any criticism at the same time question the universal faith of the critic. That is the real tragedy of Super, which tries to uncover SUPER DRAMA with "the promise". Content and music go hand in hand with on an equal footing. They form a unit and not admit in fact that one without the other is taken into account. 

Little SOFT and not by machine, but still loosely reaching ROBERT Wyatt's vocal level, Robert Gozon submits the texts in all clarity and sometimes tragic, sometimes stones could soften just the stones, which play such an important role in "Turn The Stone". Actually that could hesitate raised without another claim that SUPER DRAMA Canterbury move Germany and this unusual way of playing true to develop their music to small epics, are not afraid to incorporate folk and melodic in the ear and jazzy elements sent in their complex, sometimes even experimental music. This music feels bound, strictly on the text so that you necessarily should lead in the run-up to the conceptual history, starting with the "retributive justice" and ending with the "great promise" to heart. Over the text, the music to understand - seems to be the obvious intention of SUPER DRAMA . Who to engage, will quickly realize that this intention actually works and so this album that continues big 70s GENESIS-era plus CAMELschen Neoprog, with the twelve-minute long track, "the promise" even on the whole is exactly the way, the good music, no matter in what drawer she may also put, should be: the successful and valuable in every combination of Word + touch + instrumental implementation. 

CONCLUSION: "the promise" is full of musical depth and lyrical Weis and beauty, which in the end the "Kantian imperative" with his message: "Treat each way, as you want to be treated yourself!" is inherent. SUPER DRAMA what a wonderful Union between music and text not also provide evidence of this with "the promise", but especially in the progressive rock can be carried out and should be. Instead to indulge musically about Tolkien's "Lord of the rings" fantasies and to alienate, which only gives out the supposedly sophisticated music and who dismisses the accompanying texts that are worth barely a hoot, as superfluous accessories with textual fantasy Schwurbeleien from the handset fair also on texts value. For this "music" listeners, the conceptual Symphony of SUPER DRAMA is not created, although it sounds musically in places but also as the fantasy-addicted prog heroes or, for example, as a NEAL MORSE, who but just still embarrassed can touch us BEARD sounds convincing, still with his SPOCK'S with his conversion of texts. There's finally listen to the textual anti-MORSE and the musical Pro-MORSE. Thank God!
