Title: Prog Rock from Iran
Post by salim on 3rd Aug, 2011 at 2:50am
Hi,

I'm Salim Ghazi Saeedi, an Iranian composer and guitarist in progressive rock genre. Actually during years I have received various notions on my genre from different reviews... including progressive metal and jazz-fusion to avant-garde classical chamber, progressive electronic rock. and RIO. Moreover some critiques, prefer Art Rock instead and recognize the music with a minimalist approach.

My works has mainly compared with Univers Zero and Art Zoyd  John Zorn, The Enid, Djam Karet and Birdsongs of the Mesozoic and even the entire Belgian chamber rock scene! Harmonie Magazine #70 compared my guitar playing with King Crimson's Robert Fripp.

Here I would like to share with you some review excerpts and I invite you to take a listen to my latest release, Iconophobic at http://www.salimworld.com/album%20-%20iconophobic.htm

  • "You need to tread carefully if you are entering the Iconophobic world of Salim Ghazi Saeedi. You have been warned." -Iconophobic Review, DPRP, 2010, Volume 67, John O’Boyle, Dec 2010 [more] http://www.dprp.net/reviews/201067.php#saeedi
