Synopsis

Product Description
The Norwegian band Gazpacho have been described by one critic as "classical post ambient nocturnal atmospheric folk world rock". Difficult to pigeonhole, the influence of bands like Radiohead, Muse, Marillion, Talk Talk and Porcupine Tree are evident. "Tick Tock", their fourth release, is sort of a Rock Opera of epic proportions, based upon the obscure French writer Antoine Saint-Exupéry's book "Wind, Sand and Stars" and is produced by Steve Lyon (Depeche Mode, Cure, Paul McCartney). "Tick Tock" places Gazpacho amongst the leading intelligent modern rock bands of the decade.
 

CD Reviews

Powerful, intense, deep, amazing
Ricardo Haskins | Dallas, TX United States | 05/03/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I saw this group at ROSfest, 2010 and with each song they became more amazing to listen to.

The group is from Norway and as difficult and pehaps unfair it is to name a group or two

that they "sound like", it is naturally what is done. This is quite unfair, since this band

have their OWN very distinctive sound. If I may, if one weren't paying attention, they might even

trump more recent Marillion almost in a corner.



They band admits they have a tremendous influence from Porcupine Tree, so they

are most certainly prog. Very melodic and mesmerizing. Impossible for me to describe more other than to

say a flavor you will not find matched anywhere and perhaps you will indeed insist on having more and more.

Well done Gazpacho. I am truly led to say...wow..."
