Cobalt Wave - Men. Mind. Machine (2025)

 

The debut album from this band from Poland.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

This is a new name to me. I found their album through Bandcamp. As I am interested in the Polish art-rock and neo-prog scene, I got it downloaded.

The music on this fifty minutes long album is indeed a blend of neo-prog and art-rock. Marillion and Believe is two good references here.

The music is as per usual from Poland both melancholic and melodic. There is a lot of really interesting details scattered around this album. The guitars are at times half-acoustic and the guitar harmonies are very good. Ths sound is good too on the mostly mid-tempo music. 

The vocals is good and there is no doubts this band is a very fine addition to the melodic prog scene in Poland and Europe.

Check out this good album.
