ZDRASTVOOTIE's "2" is a perplexing album. It folds the far corners of some of the world's most out-there progressive rock with deep, deliberate singer-songwriter type vocals and lyrics. It is both a collection of confusing, dark and fragmented meditations and defiantly odd music, yet it is far more accessible and playful than one would expect. For those needing a little help, think CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, MCDONALD & GILES, MAGMA, SHUB NIGGURATH and KING CRIMSON.
