Editorial Reviews

SPIRITS BURNING is a one-time band made of the best musicians (Ancient or modern), and that performs progressive rock, new musics, neo-psychedelic and Krautrock. The keyboards player Don FALCONE (Ex-TRAP & SPACESHIP EYES) is here accompanied by guitarist Daevid ALLEN (GONG), drummer Gary PARRA (TRAP), singer Malcolm MOONEY (CAN), drummer Paul WILLIAMS (QUARKSPACE) as well as guitarist Steven WILSON (PORCUPINE TREE). Numerous other guests greatly contribute to make even better this adventurous music that re-visits the complete palette of its participants’ original styles. Recorded in 1999 on the label Gazul, "New Worlds By Design" presents an explosive and surprising cocktail ! The miracles of technology allow the participation of the legendary Robert CALVERT, despite the fact that the legendary HAWKWIND singer is now deceased !

4.0 out of 5 stars Spirits Burning - 'New Worlds By Design' (Gazal/Musea), October 24, 2004

This review is from: New Worlds By Design (Audio CD)

Seventeen tracks of true avant garde progressive and indepth psychedelic assembled by none other than Don Falcone.He had apparently spent 1996-99 sending out notices to various space/prog/psych musicians to invite them to be a part of this brilliant project.No one should be at all disappointed.It's just SO much better than the two Spaceship Eyes discs that I've heard.'New Worlds...' features at least one member of F/i,Tenth Planet,Anubian Lights,Darxtar,Can,Quarkspace,The Brain,Porcupine Tree and Daevid Allen,who shows up on a handful of tunes providing gliss guitar as only he can and vocals.Good space rock tracks would be "Arcturus",the atmospheric "Beautiful Stealth","The Unknown","Smart Messages In The Sand",the thirteen-minute mindblowing "Ticking Of Science"(one of the better tunes on the entire disc) and "A Real Creeper".The more electronic cuts are "Solar Campfire","Triquetrium Delight","Secret Invention" and the potential rave favorite "Avatar".Do keep in mind that each song has a different line-up.A great CD to own.
