By this point you should all know that "proggy" and "jazzy" are two flavours I enjoy the taste of very much. Throw in "funky grooviness", and you've got the makings of a pretty epic meal. Seen in this light, today's marathon of proggy goodness from Boston's Native Construct is a multi-course smorgasboard.
"The Spark of the Archon", the first single from Native Construct's upcoming debut LP Quiet World, is nearly nine minutes of smoothly flowing ideas and instrumentation. The mostly "proggy", "jazzy" and "funky" grooves are further supplemented by some blast beaty flashes of metal and some orchestral flashes of cinematic grandiosity.
You shouldn't be bored at any point during the running time of "The Spark of the Archon" (especially since the guys in Native Construct have put out a guitar/bass playthrough video so you can watch the magic unfold) but things aren't ever disjointed enough that you find yourself lost and confused. You prog fans should get familiar with these guys before Quiet World drops, so get started right this minute.
