With a full fledged nod to hard rock Hammond driven bands of the late 60's and 70's, Wicked Minds executes a tight and edgy, post-psychedelic groove; complete with crunch laden guitars & hard driving rhythmic punch; but it's that organ, with that Leslie speaker captured as if you were standing next to the cabinet, with the horns spinning out of control & the overdriven 12AX7's on the verge of a meltdown. The music leans on the 'song-oriented' scheme of things, with the occasional jam session interplay between the guitars and organ, where they crank out thundering tracks through and through, where cuts such as the 'Sabbathy' "Withflower" and the chaotic rock of "Drifting" keep the record's impulsive vibe in overdrive while darker numbers such as "Before the Morning Light" & the tripped out "Return to Uranus" invoke a haunting mood in the record. Live at Burg Herzberg Festival is an ecstatic live performance, where these guys keep the groove loose, but not to a fault; there are points where you almost forget that you are listening to a live album due to the fact that there is a lack of sloppiness during the performance; the finite spontaneity just comes natural for the band. This a release that fans of Argent, Rainbow, Black Bonzo, Deep Purple, & early-Uriah Heep dare not miss out on.

Can't say that I know much about this Italian band called Wicked Minds, other than the fact that their new CD Live at Burg Herzberg Festival 2006 is a pretty smoldering slice of psychedelic & progressive hard rock, sort of like a mish-mash of Uriah Heep, Nektar, Deep Purple, and Atomic Rooster. Lots of Hammond organ and guitar freakouts permeate this sucker, a live album recorded in Germany back in 2006, which features songs from their two studio albums From The Purple Skies and Witchflower, which were released in 2004 and 2006. In a way these guys take a similar road as Black Bonzo, except they leave out much of the symphonic prog influence in favor of a harder edge organ/guitar based heavy rock formula. The lead vocals of J.C. Cinel sound very much like the late Heep singer David Byron, and tunes like "Drifting", "From the Purple Skies", and "The Elephant Stone" have that lovely, swirling Hammond sound that Ken Hensley made so famous, here courtesy of Paolo 'Apollo' Negri. On guitar is Lucio Calegari, whose melodic yet fiery guitar playing adds that extra edge to these songs...when he kicks on the wah-wah pedal, look out!
Most of the tracks here are pretty lengthy, including the bombastic 20 minute juggernaut "Return to Uranus", and give the band more than enough space to boogie out and strut their stuff. Live at Burg Herzberg Festival 2006 comes across as, when all is said and done, an utterly enjoyable retro trip for lovers of 70's progressive hard rock, and es-Those Who Can not Get Enough Hammond organ In Their Life. Recommended!

WICKED MINDSLive At Burg Herzberg FestivalBlack Widow - imp. Already this live shows the band playing at Burg Herzberg Festival in Germany, showing the band Live digs what you do. Of course, this line within Hard Progressive Doom seventies, with the foot 80. This Live At Burg Herzberg Festival has only eight tracks, a little hard to live, even though the songs are long. Further that both bands of the 70s, as they want to redeem that time, they like to do solos for all instruments on nearly every track, making improvisations, making agreements among themselves and so on. So Witchflower, and Drifting Shadows' Train are the best, the long jump, with more than 10 minutes Through My Love, almost endless. RS - 7.5
