Aisles, Profuna Ocean October 27, 2016 - Extase, Tilburg (NL)
With three studio albums and an eleven-year career, Aisles has become one of South America's most acclaimed
progressive rock bands of the past decade. The band has played in South America and Europe, and their albums have
been released in Europe, North America and Japan. Aisles are from Chile and have just released their fourth album
Hawaii and were- after seven long years-back in Europe. They did a tour that brought them to Belgium, France,
the UK and the Netherlands. It was obvious that I never would have forgiven myself if I hadn't attended one of
the booked Dutch shows. Being a lover of their music since their debut The Yearning (2005), I had to see
them. Therefore our team made a trip to Tilburg to see the band perform at Extase, a rock café with a small concert
stage, a stage which the band had to share with two other acts (Profuna Ocean and Little Eye) but
of course not at the same time!

Aisles
All I can say is that their mix of South American passionate Latin music and European progressive rock music is for me a perfect marriage of musical styles. Maybe I had wished they could have done a two hour long set but then again what they offered was of such a high level that I already was satisfied with what they came up with. In the end the entire show on Dutch soil just made me speechless. The musical craftsmanship of the band and perfectionism that they brought with the songs to their audience had totally blown me away! I had a blast! Gracias! Hopefully it will not take another seven years to see them back on a European stage! Henri Strik (edited by Robert James Pashman) |
