Instrumental Quarter - Traffic Jam

Beautiful and intricate instrumentals from Italy's Instrumental Quarter. Most modern instrumental bands play guitar rock, surf, or tracks that seem like throwbacks to 1970s progressive rock dinosaurs. These guys play soft, serene, mentally absorbing music that concentrates mainly on skill and craft. The interplay between guitar and violin in critical in many of these pieces...giving them a slight classical influence. Guitarist Paride Lanciani is a true innovator in his field, constantly pushing the limits of his playing to reveal new levels of competency. On violin, rhodes, and theramin is Davide Arneodo...who seems to play off Lanciani's riffs with ease and perfection. Rounding out the band is the solid rhythm section consisting of Gabriele Grosso (bass) and Luca Bleu (drums). Traffic Jam is a flawless collection of thirteen tracks with staying power. Also included on this disc are four videos of the band performing live.
