...final proof that prog is no longer a four letter word NME ...luscious take on luxury-sized psychedelic Playlouder.com. Many great bands have claimed their beginnings at university and Pure Reason Revolution continue that tradition. Founder members Jon Courtney and Greg Jong first met at London s University of Westminster, mimicking the coming together of their idols Pink Floyd, who studied in the same place nearly 40 years earlier. Jon and Greg threw together/carefully selected a dedicated band of associates, all keen to pursue a lifestyle of espionage, psychodrama and fantasy. This early twenty-something quintet now comprises Jon (vox, guitar, synths), Greg (vox, guitar, synths), Chloe (vox, bass, tamba, synths), James (sampler, synths, vox, bass) and Anders (drums). During this performance you are sure to spot musical references to early ambient Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Crosby Stills and Nash, ELO and Japan.
