Song of the Day: The Comet Is Coming – Pyramids

To say that The Comet Is Coming blew my mind is both a double entendre and a hypothesis, testable whenever I cue their previous album Trust in the Lifeforce of the Deep Mystery and hit play. On their new full length, even though the space-jazz of prior years lingers, they now venture into space-dance/rock territory.

Always with a flair for description (or an inability to stick to 8-bit era computer file name standard), Hyper-Dimensional Expansion Beam is as much an involving listening experience as ever. “Pyramids” is one of the more straight-forward offerings. With a rich synth melody sprinkled with Shabaka Hutching’s saxophone as mere occasional beacon, this track is at once dance-able and contemplative.
