Teliof from Tel Aviv are a progressive rock band who sound like they have been locked up in a room for the last 30 years or so, listening endlessly to Yes, Genesis, early Queen, and Focus. This Israeli quintet takes you back on a trip through early Seventies symphonic rock, with a 24 minute plus suite in seven parts to boot.
The band have a knack for coming up with infectious melodies, with a hint of gospel thrown in. Is It? is an album with expert guitar parts, big room vocals - thankfully no neo-goth intonations a la Within Temptation. Production wise the songs come leaping out of your speakers without drowning out the quiet parts, like a good prog album must should.
Teliof:
Kristine Sykes: vocals & flute
Yuval Aviguy: guitar
Roei Remez: keyboards
Avsha Elan: guitar & bass
Lior Arinos: drums & percussion
