"GAZPACHO'S SUPERB ‘FIREWORKER’ PRESENTED ON DIGIPACK CD INCLUDES 16-PAGE PRINTED BOOKLET

For over twenty years, Gazpacho have reigned as the kings of atmospheric & affective art rock. 2020’s observation, ‘Fireworker’, is no exception. In fact, it’s undoubtedly among their greatest achievements, as well as one of the most profound pieces of music you’ll hear from recent times. Gazpacho’s career has been full of great performances & glowing praise, they’ve played festivals such as Be Prog! My Friend, Night of the Prog, Midsummer Prog Festival & Cruise to the Edge, where they delighted audiences.

Conceptually, the album follows the band’s tradition of blending grand philosophical quandaries, stimulating literary leanings & haunting personal turmoil. In a way, it acts as the culmination of the themes & techniques that’ve decorated earlier collections, combining the fatalistic isolation of ‘Night’ & ‘Missa Atropos’; the ill-fated narrative drama of ‘Tick Tock’ & ‘Soyuz’; & the hefty theological/scientific contemplations of ‘Demon’ & ‘Molok’. Beyond that, its central premise (that humanity has always been controlled by an infallible & omniscient creature determined to propagate at any cost) means that ‘Fireworker’ comes across like the overarching umbrella under which all of its predecessors occur.

Keyboardist Thomas Andersen elucidates: “There’s an instinctual part of you that lives inside your mind, separate from your consciousness. I call it the ‘Fireworker’ or the ‘Lizard’ or the ‘Space Cowboy.’ It’s an eternal & unbroken lifeforce that’s survived every generation, with a new version in each of us”.

This edition of ‘Fireworker’ is presented as a digipack CD & includes a 16-page printed booklet".
