Noa - JOURNEY TO BABEL [2020] & DAGGER IN MY MIND [2022] LOSSLESS

 Noa – Dagger Of The Mind [2022] LOSSLESS

Prog Rock, Jazz-Rock, Fusion

Excellent Japanese underground Fusion with symphonic underlines, some great atmospheric moments and plenty of technical exhibitions.No less than highly recommended. 35 years after their debut album "Tri Logic" released in 1987, and after the release of their self-recorded cover album "Journey to Babel" in 2008, the current members of the band, led by former Aqua Police drummer Ichiro Takezako, have joined forces with Prism's Cher Watanabe on keys, Hirofumi Mitoma of Mongolian on guitar, and Yoshiyuki Sakurai of HAL/Shingetsu on bass. The four members of Noa, a treasure of the progressive jazz-rock world, are led by Ichiro Takezako, former drummer of Aquapolis, Chel Watanabe (Key) of Prism, Hirofumi Mitoma (Guitar) of Mongolia, and Yoshiyuki Sakurai (Bass), who played in HAL/Shingetsu.
