Igra Staklenih Perli - Igra Staklenih Perli - 8/10
Right: Mindblowing progressive rock has been made also in Yugoslavia. This record dates back from 1978, but it sounds like it was made in the glorious first half of the decade. One could describe this as space-rock, but more far out than the natural point of comparison, Gong's You. If Gong were on drugs, they'd have made a record like this. Uh, never mind. Anyway, Igra Staklenih Perli have the standard bass guitar/electric guitar/drums setup, but supplemented with some weird kind of synth or keyboard. The vocals are in English and fit in excellently with the music. It's the guitar and synth sounds that send the music into outer space - sometimes in a manner a bit like Gong, and sometimes like Le Orme's Felona e Sorona. Moreover, the highlight of Igra Staklenih Perli, the track "Putovanje u Plavo", has some Magma-like chanting, which is combined excellently with the synth effects and the outstanding guitar playing. An important aspect of the music is the scales used, which give the music a unique Arabian/Mediterranean sound. However, there are two problems. Firstly, the sound quality is bad - it seems that the CD was recorded from an old LP. The comparison to Biglietto per l'Inferno is obvious: The bad sound quality fits the atmosphere, and doesn't really ruin much. Secondly, the record lasts for no more than 28 minutes. But still, when it fades out, it feels just long enough. The little music that you get is absolutely packed with moments that will give you shivers, so not checking out this record is a mistake.
