Brother Ape - The Mirror (2013) [Swedish Indie Prog-Pop]
A power trio from Stockholm that's been cooking steadily since 1980, but didn't start recording albums until the mid 00's. Interesting band - they come off as a curious conglomerate of early 80's Rush, Smashing Pumpkins and Mew...along with a healthy helping of jazz fusion dexterity. This cut, The Mirror, is a good example of their approach at work - strong melodies, the distinctive lead vocals and guitar work of Stefan Damicolas...and a keen sense of energy that's missing in a lot of prog.
