Knight Area October 21, 2018 - 't Blok, Nieuwerkerk a/d IJssel (NL)
Most songs Knight Area performed came from their latest two albums Hyperdrive (2014, see review) and Heaven And Beyond (2017, see review). As usual, the encore Mortal Brow came from their debut album The Sun Also Rises (2004). In this final track Mark Bogert pulled out all the stops and showed again his craftsmanship on the guitar. Great! During and after the show attention was payed tot the new and seventh album of the band called D-Day. On the 6th of June 2019, it will be 75 years ago that the allied forces started to free Europe from the German occupier. On that date Knight Area wants to release the album and perform the music in a large venue. To make this happen, they started a crowdfunding campaign in order to raise the money for this event. Check their website www.knightarea.com and see how you can contribute to this desired performance! Don't hesitate, because as far as I am concerned Knight Area is the number one progressive rock band of the Netherlands! Nico Schouw (edited and translated by Peter Willemsen) |
