Our Take

In a musical landscape filled with cookie-cutter pop tunes and generic indie rock, Van Der Graaf Generator's "Still Life" is a refreshing splash of eccentricity and artistry. This album, released in 1976, showcases the band's unique blend of progressive rock and avant-garde sensibilities, creating a sonic journey unlike anything else out there. From the haunting vocals of Peter Hammill to the virtuosic instrumentation of Hugh Banton and Guy Evans, "Still Life" is a masterclass in musical creativity. The album's epic tracks like "Pilgrims" and "La Rossa" take listeners on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, with intricate arrangements and unpredictable twists and turns. While some may find Van Der Graaf Generator's sound challenging and complex, for those willing to dive in headfirst, "Still Life" is a rewarding and immersive listening experience. The band's refusal to conform to traditional song structures and sonic conventions sets them apart from their peers, solidifying their status as true musical pioneers. So if you're looking for something a little different, a little weird, and a whole lot of wonderful, give Van Der Graaf Generator's "Still Life" a spin. Who knows, you might just discover your new favourite band. Keep it quirky, keep it cool, keep it Van Der Graaf Generator. Pitchfork approved.
