ALBUM REVIEW
ANKH’s latest album fittingly titled “Expect Unexpected” is a great mix of electronica, pop and progressive rock genres. Hard to peg this album in any one category as it offers such unique characteristics and musical forms. The opening track “The Trick” for example plays in the electronic pop space and is a very catchy tune reminding me for some reason of a modern day KRAFTWERK. The following song ”Love Supreme” is a drawing from the work of KING CRIMSON. Throughout the album ANKH get into some great instrumental grooves and jams. The listener is never bored listening to this album as it offers so much variety in both mood, and tempo variation. The vocals are mostly sung in Polish and generally play a sub-servant role to the instrumentation. This album is a homerun for sure and for those looking to experiment into some new earth shattering territory should definitely check this album out... (J.Unger)
