Birth Control - Backdoor Possibilities (1976) (1997)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

"Backdoor Possibilities" is an excellent concept based on a story about a corporate businessman who is trapped by his own success and who ultimately reflects on his life before meeting death in a subway. The album could equal even Gentle Giant when it comes to complexity and weird time-changes, and it's pretty obvious that Gentle Giant were a great inspiration for this album. Zeus B. Held is heavy on the Moog and string-synth here, and he comes up with loads of cool, varied and unusual sounds. Three of the six tracks are divided into several parts, so you can be sure that you won't get any straightforward stuff. And all of the tracks are absolutely outstanding complex mid-70's progressive rock. Highlights on the album include the opener "One First of April" and the closing number "No Time to Dye". The latter also mixes a very Yes-like chorus in at the end. "Beedeepees" is probably the most Gentle Giant-sounding track they ever recorded, both in sound and structure. "Futile Prayer" is a melodramatic ballad where drummer Noske's vocal unfortunately is a bit more accented than on the other tracks, but the song is still great. The melodic and powerful "Behind Grey Walls" have a strong Genesis-influence while the instrumental "La Cigüena de Zaragoza" is jazzier with a cool sax-part at the end...Bob Hope
