Gaos - Gaos

This is the re-release of the eponymous album by the Japanese band G.A.O.S., initially released in 1987. Atsushi HOSHIDA (Guitar), Mazazumi YAMADA (Guitar), Kazunami MOTOMURA (Bass) and Kazuhiro KUDO (Drums) develop a complex and sophisticated jazz-rock, in the same vein as SIDE STEPS, KENSO or BRAND X, but with two guitar players and no keyboards at all. Composed by both guitarists, their very dense and dynamic music is concentrated in mid-long instrumental pieces (Around 5-6 minutes). It reveals the high technical skill of the musicians, together with generous melodies.
