Van Der Graaf Generator, A Grounding In Numbers (2011)



Six years after their surprise reunion, it still seems unreal to be listening to a new Van der Graaf Generator record. That's strongly art rock oriented album without typical (of the band) dark atmosphere and brass section. With lots of Canterbury sound and space rock motifs and themes connected in faultless psychedelic way.
