![]() ![]() But then three, four, five and six more, I was hooked on this band. So I managed to suffer through a few other albums until I got farther down the list and came across this band to which I had to ask myself, “with a name THAT long how bad could they be?” By the time I finish saying their name I will have gone through a song or two. But I digress and that music like beauty is in the eye of the beholder buuuuuuuuuuuuuut………. Whilst surfing through a friend’s folders of albums I came across one larger folder called “Sounds Like Pink Floyd” which immediately caught my attention and after a listen through quite a few of the bands he had in this folder I was about ready to throw in the towel as most of them were awful interpretations of Floyd classics with some butchered beyond recognition. Newspaperflyhunting founded in 2006 in Bialystok, Poland, a five piece of what the band describes themselves as Prog/Post/Space Rock with a couple of full length albums out, a compilation of the first ten years and two Eps under their belt and a name that’s more than a mouthful to spit out in one shot. One typically and ignorantly often associates Prog music with the UK, Germany, some Scandinavian countries, the US and France sad to say but it’s true, however, Poland has given us quite a few bands over the years in the world of Prog with the likes of Exodus (1976-1985), Light Coorporation (since 2007), Millenium (since 1999), Quidam (1991-2002, 2004-current), SBB (on and off since 1971), Satellite (since 2000) and probably the most well known Polish Prog export, Riverside (since 2001) and it’s bassist’s Mariusz Duda side project, Lunatic Soul (Albums on and off since 2008) to which I allowed my ignorance to get in the way and thought they were British. When one thinks of Poland one doesn’t automatically have Prog bands pop in to their heads but more things like food and wars past instead. ![]()
