about

SBB's second western album, originally recorded in 1978. Seven shorter, extremely diverse compositions confirming the great inventiveness of the legendary trio - accelerated, progressive themes and moving songs with an idea.

SBB spent most of 1978 on performances all over Europe, and was the first Polish performer to stand on the stage of the Roskilde festival. In September, the band found time to record the next studio album. The material was released both in Poland and in Western Europe. Mixed by Conny Planek (producer of Kraftwerk and Ultravox, among others) - it brought more compact compositions than before, but just as thrilling and intriguing. The dynamic “Walkin’ Around the Stormy Bay” for numerous synthesizers and two drums contrasts here with the pastoral “How Can I Begin”, while the Beatles-like “Why No Peace” contrasts with “Loneliness” reminiscent of Pink Floyd.

-

Drugi zachodni album SBB, nagrany oryginalnie w 1978 roku. Siedem krótszych, niezwykle różnorodnych kompozycji potwierdzających wielką inwencję legendarnego tria – rozpędzone, progresywne tematy i poruszające piosenki z pomysłem.

Większość 1978 roku SBB spędziło na scenach koncertowych całej Europy, będąc m.in. pierwszym polskim wykonawcą, który stanął na deskach festiwalu w Roskilde. We wrześniu znaleźli czas na nagranie swojego kolejnego albumu studyjnego. Wydany zarówno w Polsce, jak i na zachodzie Europy materiał – zmiksowany przez Conny’ego Planka (producent m.in. Kraftwerk i Ultravox) przynosił utwory bardziej zwarte niż dotąd, ale tak samo porywające i intrygujące. Dynamiczne „Walkin’ Around the Stormy Bay”, na liczne syntezatory i dwie perkusje, kontrastuje tutaj z pastoralnym „How Can I Begin”, a piosenkowe, beatlesowskie „Why No Peace” z przypominającym dokonania Pink Floyd „Loneliness”.

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper

Mysterious, yet nostalgic, Isolubilia is truly an ode to the romance found in the pursuit of a mystery. Musically rich in turbulence and serenity, majesty and humbleness, this album made me feel both lonely, yet understood as an isolated individual. Perhaps we're all fellow romantics, looking up at the same night sky, trying to wring our own meaning out of the stars. I hope that pursuit never ends. The John

This supergroup from Berlin is the true heir of the improvising King Crimson of the 1973-74, 2000, and the 1997-99 ProjeKcts periods. Amazing! Advise not to do ironing, dishwashing, dogwalking, or child care while listening to it. Frank Hadlich
