Spaced Out: Spaced Out
Soloing is tight, expressive in a novel way, leaning towards instrumental rock and then back to jazzy fusion in a balanced way. Too many times groups attempt fusion but are stuck in progressive rock ruts. Spaced Out avoids this pitfall. They maintain this reviewer’s focus better than say, uh, that Dream “Cinema” outfit. Know what I mean?
Spaced Out pulls off plenty of great fusion acrobatics with two excellent guitarists, a super bassist, killer drums, with very creative synth programming and nice keys. In fact, bassist Fafard is as good as Stu Hamm. Take my word or just listen to the song “Glassophere”. Great debut!
