Juzz - Juzz (Expanded Edition) (2024)

Reissue on CD with two extra songs of this album released, only on LP format, in 2018 by the Galician band JUZZ. An unlikely, but more than successful, cocktail of progressive jazz rock seasoned with RIO suggestions, stoner avalanches and post rock and free jazz fury. All flavored with the elegance of the Canterbury scene.

"Together they create a kaleidoscopic and bombastic sound mixture, dilated and enriched by superb individual moments, but also with a common approach, thus creating eclectic raids, sometimes heavy prog moments, but overall brilliant themes. This is a brilliant album, and with these two new compositions, it is only even stronger and more complete". (Goran Čabrajić, New Dawn Of Prog)

"These guys are amazingly great players, their style encompasses an aggressive hard jazz that makes itself known on the opening track, “Rathenow Towers,” where one might well encounter something like "The Inner Mounting Flame" if Jimi Hendrix were in the band, but after the keyboards and sax take the lead, one detects this is a pure jazz with heavy progressive rock leanings and the absence of any vocals; nine minutes later the listener is ready for that proverbial cigarette". (Peter Thelen, Exposé)
