REVIEW(ed):

“Now a messenger comes from a place that has bled…”

‘CYNTHIA’ is the long awaited album from @qyburnmusic & my word, it’s been worth every day of its extended gestation.

The Los Angeles-based artist/producer/legit human Connor Strader invokes “some kind of ethereal dance paradise with an underbelly of sex and corruption lurking just beneath the surface” by tapping into his first loves of Genesis, Rush, Yes & Jethro Tull across a 9-track spread that seamlessly coalesces these proggers w/ a heavy penchant for goth’d out & dark_waving theatrics. 

“She Breathes” is the table setter that opens the album & legit sets the tone of what’s to go down over the next 8 tracks w/ it’s dulcet tones, prog_gothing & multiple sick ass sax solos…. while the title-track finds our “master necromance” holding court & spreading the dark word by dropping another banger ass track for his fellow conjurors that’s chockful of synthetic dread, ominous beauty & deeply plaintive tones

“Loose Lips” is a delightfully string laden & piano-led lead ditty that operates within the cosmos while the transfixing “Ruby Red” finds Strader bringing the cosmically spooked goods across 5 ½ mins of dialed-in & dark_waving ProgPop, where every foggy chant & crystalline synth hits hard AF.

Elsewhere “Succubus” lives up to its sinister namesake while “Carson of Venus” is just the late night comedown we needed as treated guitars set the bed for a passioned croon & “Letting Go” picks the BPMs the fuck up while sending us to the nearest darkened dance floor.

Closing things out in proper bookend fashion, “Mythic Dawn” brings an epic feel, one that truly does pay homage to these mystical prog heroes but also packs plenty of NewWave touchstones ala Real Life, Bowie & a club-ready beat while mixing in plenty of percolating synth & medieval organ all of which lay an ideal bed for Strader’s commanding (yet airy) vocal.

Qyburn’s ‘Cynthia’ is the truth & these 9 tracks are all the proper proof you’ll need to realize he’s a force to be reckoned with.

Kate Bush: The Hounds of Love (180 gram, Fish People, 2018)

The first spin of 2019, Kate Bush’s Hounds of Love was the fifth album from the English singer/songwriter. It saw her fortunes turn after the poor performance of her previous album The Dreaming.

A musical masterpiece that just keeps you running up that hill.

SEASONAL_SONG_DISORDER: // “Now a messenger comes from a place that has bled…” // “RUBY RED” is a seasonally apt choice for those looking to add a whole heap of danceability to their October. // @qyburnmusic’s cosmically spooked little ditty finds the Los Angeles-based necromancer/legit nice guy Connor Strader bringing the goods across 5 ½ mins of dialed-in & dark_waving ProgPop, where every foggy chant & crystalline synth is a reminder that Strader’s craft is steeped in loving devotion of the purest form.

Steven Wilson - PERSONAL SHOPPER (Official Audio)

Have now, have now, pay in another life

Kickstart the future, accept this loan

Fill in the form, you're pre-qualified

You're now the sum of what you own

Buy now, buy now, have a better life

Close out transactions without remorse

Apply for credit, it's your given right

Buy it all then buy some more

Buy for comfort, buy for kicks

Buy and buy until it makes you sick

Buy for England, buy it all

Buy online and in the shopping mall

Sell it on then buy it back

Buy the shit you never knew you lacked

Buy the update to compete

Buy the things that make your life complete

Consumer of life, hold my hand, extend your rights

It's the power to purchase to excess

That sets you apart and can give you the ultimate high

Abuser of our time, if there's something that you want

You don't need it, but have to concede it's making you happy

And that's all that matters to you

Buy the box set and the kind of stuff

You've bought before a million times

Buy in green, buy in blue

Buy in patterns 'cause I tell you to

Buy the dream, buy the spin

Feel the bite down of the trap you're in

Buy the lies that I tell

Lap up everything I'm here to sell

Buy now, buy now, at a better price

Give in to excess, lose control

Just keep on spending, never compromise

Rack up more debt and fill that hole

Buy for comfort, buy for kicks

Buy and buy until it makes you sick

Buy for England, buy it all

Buy online and in the shopping mall

Sell it on then buy it back

Buy the shit you never knew you lacked

Buy the update to compete

Buy the things that make your life complete
