Senogul - III (2011)


The third album from this Spanish band.

Senogul was a quintet with a lineup of guitars, bass, drums, minimoog, keyboards, percussion and some Spanish vocals.
They had help from numerous guest musicians who provided woodwinds, synths, drums and percussion.

I reviewed their 2007 self-titled debut album for # 1 of this blog back in June 2015. You can read this review here.

Senogul gives us fifty minutes of mostly instrumental music. There is one short vocal track here and that is all.

Their music is a mix of jazz and King Crimson like eclectic prog. There is also some Spanish folk rock influences here and some symphonic prog influences.

The music is pretty dark and brooding throughout.

The music is also melodic and contains a lot of interesting details and twists. There is a lot of twists and turns on this album.

This is indeed a good album which will appeal to every eclectic prog and jazz fan out there. This is also the last sign of life from this band but I hope we will hear some more from this band.
