Neue Aera
Aerabian
Last copy! Led by original AERA ( HUMANUM EST/ HAND UND FUSS) - bandfounder, composer and guitarist Muck Groh and his colleagues from "the early days" , drummer Wolfgang Teske and violinist Christoph Krieger, completed by bass player Jonas Gruber (son of Muck), flautist and sax player Armin Fleissner and guest singer Pia (on 3 titles), now its time for NEUE (NEW) AERA. Founded in 2008 NEUE AERA, first of all, was a "just for fun"- project. But very soon the musicians experienced that the old (and new) magic was (still) there and - like in the early seventies- Muck took over the leading role and composed new stuff without denying his roots of the "old" AERA-period, heavy influenced by a progressive jazz rock and hints of Arabian/ Oriental -sounds. Guitars all over, played with incredible power, heavenly melodies, terrific hook lines, pure strength, alive and kicking, lovely vocals, emotional violin interludes, superb flute and sax playing, all held together by a perfect playing rhythm section. NEUE AERAs album "AERABIAN" is open - minded and innovative, a logical continuation of AERAs early albums " Humanum Est" and "Hand und Fuss" , a real killer. 11 Tracks, playing about 65 minutes. Booklet cover is based on an painting by Muck Groh.
