STANDARTE - Heavy Prog • Italy

Standarte biography (http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=512)

STANDARTE is an Italian band that has brought back a previously long-dead 70's style, that being the majestic organ-heavy hard rock of so many European rock groups of the time. All records consist of basically the same kind of music: symphonic progressive, other times jazzy, funky and/or bluesy, and quite often psychedelic. The songs differ a little, but the sound and the style stay the same. 

"Stimmung" is strong throughout, and is a fine choice to discover STANDARTE's throwback style. Fans of the not-so-krautrock (but still German) 'big sound' artists of the 70s (like GROBSCHNITT, JANE, BIRTH CONTROL, and OS MUNDI) should really enjoy STANDARTE.
