Four years after ” Circulive New View “, the third studio album by the Americans Circuline is released , once again for Inner Nova Music , a New York label founded in 2014 by Andrew Colyer , leader of the band .

The American band’s proposal ranges widely between apparently distant genres, always starting from a clearly progressive basic setting: with ” All “, for example, we navigate in progressive territory, with a proposal balanced between the old style influences of  Starcastle and Relayer , groups clearly devoted to the old-fashioned Yes , and, remaining in US territory, the compelling dynamism of  Kansas and Spock’s Beard ; “ Tempus Horribilis ” boasts an almost Canterbury-like final direction (unfortunately not sublimated by the initial post-rock , frankly not very contextualized), while  ” Third Rail ” presents interesting glimpses of an almost medieval nature and ” Temporal Thing ” and ” Say Their Name ” boast clear and highly appreciated  fusion influences.


That said, ” CORE ” certainly deserves attention, looking to the past with renewed interest, always proposed in mature and renewed terms, if not courageous, due to a modus operandi that is never standardized and/or predictable.


For collectors, it should be noted that the work that arrived in the editorial office is sublimated by a beautiful digipack package , embellished with two posters (each measuring 50x30cm) and a slightly smaller insert.
