Description/Reviews:

It is no coincidence that the title of the album brings to mind the 1972 masterpiece Thick as a Brick by the British rock band JETHRO TULL. This debut, however, is not a remake of Thick as a Brick. Instead Still Thick as a Brick is a tribute to the legendary classic. REFLECTION CLUB picks up the musical style of JETHRO TULL during their progressive rock phase between 1972 and 1973, expands on it with elements of jazz and fusion and creates a novel, nearly 48-minute-long, original composition, divided into 11 parts.

Description/Reviews: 

Because if the different parts of the predominantly as longtracks realized titles flow together, musical structures are falling apart and new structures will develop and melodies, sounds and noises fuse together, the spirit of Pink Floyd seems to blow through the notes. However, despite the significant psychedelic influence Margin keeps his autonomy by melting psychedelic art rock with progressive rock in a homogenous and unique way. Therefore the debut "Psychedelic Teatime" from Margin is not only in the tradition of the great psychedelic art rock in the heyday from the late 1960s through the mid-1970s, but also proves to be likewise a  reference album for contemporary psychedelic prog.
