From Bulgaria comes Colobar, a very interesting project, founded by Angel Angelov. He wrote the music and lyrics, gathered some excellent musicians and brings a surprpisingly good album. Excellent prog metal, with some nice flavours blended into it, making it far from standard music. Highly recmmended!

This album is a very unique in the way of balancing the combination of old fashion rock with progressive metal and delicate touch of Eastern ethno sounds with fusion and jazz. Beautiful combination of these genres to listen with delight.
