Orchestra of the Upper Atmosphere - Theta Five

The fifth album by this adventurous improvising rock group. This time round an expanded 8 piece version of the band improvised in the studio for two days in October 2019. These live recordings were extensively reworked and arranged over the following months with the addition of composed vocal and instrumental material. The end result is the band's most expansive and adventurous work to date, with a greater emphasis on improvisation not seen since the band's first album but the improvised elements are contrasted strongly with the rhythmic and lyrical passages where the voice and some tighter structures come to the fore.
