LONDON UNDERGROUND are a trio from Italy led by the drummer/vocalist Daniele Caputo who is also known for his work with one of best modern prog bands about STANDARTE. Borrowing influences from The BEATLES, PINK FLOYD, HAWKWIND, KIN PING MEH, BIRTH CONTROL and ATOMIC ROOSTER, the LONDON UNDERGROUND have recorded here first great of a début album.

This short playing album is very experimental and yet it is still very enjoyable and accessible to listen to. There are some simply killer instrumental aspects on this album with heavy organ/mellotron drenched passages… everything a prog head would love. LONDON UNDERGROUND play a British styled 60s & 70s influenced pop-rock with lots of vintage keyboards such as Hammond, organ, Moog, clavinet and Mellotron. Highly recommended!

This song sounds like it might have been made in England in the early/mid 70s. Dig the groovy bass and the overall retro vibe of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars London Underground – self-titled (Record Heaven),
Solid 2000 first CD release by this Italian prog outfit – very much like Standarte. Pretty much because they have Standartes drummer & lead vocalist Daniele Caputo on board. Couple of songs here I thought were worth mentioning are “Worst Is Yet To Come”, the catchy “Everywhere I Go” and “Love Is A Beautiful Thing”. Personnel here is different than the ‘Through A Glass Darkly’ effort – Marco Piaggesi – bass, banjo & backing vocals and Stefano Cudia & Gianni Corongiu – guitars. Overall, a good choice.

 

I like it a lot. Where can I get the album? The idea of a trio is perfect to give more space to each instrument. Congratulations, beautiful 60’s environment!
One of the most beautiful pieces ever !!!!  good times!

Mi piacce molto. L idea di un trio e perfetta per dare piu spazio a ogni instrumento. Complimenti, bel ambiente 60’s!
Uno dei pezzi più belli di sempre!!!! bei tempi!
