Pure Reason Revolution return with their fifth studio album, ‘Above Cirrus’, in May 2022, their second since reuniting in 2019. The band’s rebirth saw them going back to their earliest influences, and ‘Above Cirrus’ sees them reaching ever deeper into the atmospheric, cinematic psych-prog compositions that made ‘Eupnea’ such a rapturously received return. Based around the core trio of Jon Courtney, Chloe Alper & Greg Jong, the new album manages to expand the bands sound palette ever further.
In their decade as a band, Pure Reason Revolution relentlessly innovated on every release. Their debut was a modern spin on classic prog, as accessible to fans of Tool and Muse as it was to Pink Floyd fans. Amor Vincit Omnia and Hammer and Anvil took them into electronic territory, all while maintaining a common progressive rock thread.
