Free Music Review: Hellborg carries on without Lane
Hit: 5 Stars
Since the early eighties, when Hellborg first appeared playing for Mahavishnu, he has continued to impress not with just his technical virtuosity but with his compositional skills as well. Although Lanes passing is continually felt in his more recent releases (Kali's Son and now Art Metal as well) this is still an excellent album that continues Hellborgs recent interest in Indian Music while adding an interesting Rock/Metal touch to the proceedings. Eklundh's playing is fantastic and his more Zappa inspired melodic sensibilities work better with Hellborg's playing then I would have thought. Anyone interested in music that spans the globe with virtuosity to spare should definitely pick this up.
Other Hellborg Albums to Listen for include
1/ Temporal Analogues of Paradies
2/ Icon
3/ Ars Moriende
...to name a few.
To give an example Hellborg's recent music is similar to Shakti (Steve Vai.. What!! not even close, although him and Hellborg did play together briefly on a P.I.L. album in the mid eighties.), but with a much more experimental/metal edge and more attention payed to song structure rather then jams... although there are Jams a-plenty. Pick up Art Metal and more Hellborg albums, you won't be let down.
Art Metal Poster
Jonas Hellborg launches a new platform for integration of east and west, a project called Art Metal. Borrowing the aesthetic of contemporary metal expanded with Indian and jazz improvisational disciplines, it is a proposal for what a new musical canvas could be. With long time collaborator, South Indian percussion master Selvaganesh, he explores this new path with two legends of the metal scene, Jens Johansson (Yngwie Malmsteen, Dio, Stratovarius) and Anders Johansson (Yngwie Malmsteen and Hammerfall). Completing the ensemble is Swedish guitar phenomenon Mattias IA Eklundh. The music has been slowly brewed over 18 months to find the spaces where the elements of the seemingly disparate musical traditions can comfortably coexist, even gel into new forms of sonic art.Jazz Music CDs
