The Century of the Self

Discoverd this band back in 2009 with their initial release Identity. Been a fan ever since. They have been compared to Pink Floyd which is high praise but there is more to Airbag than that. An excellent release and a top release for the year 2024
Favorite track: Tyrants and Kings.

La production du dernier opus de Airbag est une pure merveille ciselée.
Certes, la partition n’est pas d’une grande densité instrumentale mais n’empêche, j’adore le son limpide de cette galette qui possède également des basses travaillées.

And the wait is over! Very solid performance. I think I like the last track the best (Tear It Down), nice solo plays all around there. Thanks, guys!

Everything to Everyone
by Bjorn Riissupported by 186 fans who also own “The Century of the Self”
Lead guitarist for Neo-Prog band, Airbag, has released this solo recording, and as expected, there is plenty of guitar goodness all through it. He brings in other musicians to fill out the band, as well as being joined at times by a female vocalist. The lyrics are thoughtful and often mournful, with a wealth of dynamic tension and release, musically. It becomes more striking with each listen, as, deceptively, there is much to ponder here.

A Fleeting Glimpse
by Bjorn Riissupported by 184 fans who also own “The Century of the Self”
Cet album obtient la deuxième place de mes albums préférés. Etant fan de Pink Floyd, on retrouve beaucoup de similitudes dans cet album. Durga McBroom avait auparavant participé dans les concerts de ce groupe légendaire. Et voilà qu'elle se retrouve dans cet album avec sa voix envoûtante. Surtout sur la dernière musique.
