Our Take

ARABS IN ASPIC have delivered a wild ride of an album with their latest release, Iv-Vi. This limited edition record is nothing short of a psychedelic rollercoaster, taking listeners on a whirlwind journey through space and time, with dashes of prog rock and classic British whimsy thrown in for good measure.

The opening track, "Iv," kicks things off with a bang, blending intricate guitar riffs with haunting vocals that transport you to a trippy alternate universe. The band's ability to seamlessly blend genres is truly a sight to behold, as evidenced by the epic seven-minute odyssey that is "Vi." From the soaring harmonies to the blistering guitar solos, every moment of this track is a testament to the band's mastery of their craft.

But it's not all high-flying antics and mind-bending melodies on Iv-Vi. Tracks like "III" and "IV" showcase the band's softer side, with dreamy synths and delicate acoustic guitar work creating a sense of intimacy that is truly captivating. And let's not forget the limited edition packaging - a visual feast of vibrant colours and intricate designs that perfectly complement the album's otherworldly vibe.

In conclusion, Iv-Vi is a must-listen for any fan of progressive rock or anyone looking to escape the mundanity of everyday life. ARABS IN ASPIC have once again proven why they are a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, and this limited edition release is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone lucky enough to take a spin on their cosmic carousel. Cheers to that, lads.
