| Whether you consider them progressive rock, avant-garde, or a part of the knottier Rock In Opposition camp, there's little doubt that Thinking Plague are one of the most inventive, original musical ensembles working today. They take a bit from all the aforementioned styles, as well as from jazz and modern classical, and transmute it all into something wholly unique and distinctive. Though A HISTORY OF MADNESS is as cutting-edge as can be, there's a very definite through line to the compositions, and a melodic sensibility that's forward-looking without being off-putting. Deborah Perry uses her voice for everything from atmospheric effects to complex harmonies, continuing to push the envelope on the role of vocalist. Drums alternate between driving martial rhythms and jazz-rock syncopation, while keys, guitars, and winds create a constantly shifting latticework that offers delightful surprises at every turn, as rewarding as they are challenging. |
