Finnish pioneers of progressive rock Minutian

The Finnish pioneers of progressive rock, Minutian, will release their upcoming album Magical Thinking on March 12, 2021. Magical Thinking is the band’s third full-length album and showcases the group’s updated and matured sound obtained through five years of development.

They have now released third single, also named Magical Thinking. The song is a special fusion of genres – electronic music played with traditional band instruments. It manages to be a four-and-a-half-minute catchy snack made with a pop formula as well as the most difficult song to play on the entire upcoming album.

Prior to the just-released single Magical Thinking, Minutian has introduced two previous songs from their upcoming album. Singles Suspicious Smiles as well as Alien Reflection have received a very positive reception from the audience and media.

Although the band operates on the field of modern progressive rock, the album is a compact 45-minute, eight-song package. The band’s playing is tighter than ever and the songs are arranged with more nuances in them, resulting in a roller coaster of an audial experience.

Bio:

Over five years have passed since the release of their previous album Inwards. During this time, the band has been meticulously perfecting their distinctive style and sound in addition to composing solid new material. On the new album, Mikko Heino is supported by guitarist Pekka Loponen on vocals.
