Asceta - The Fool Leading The Blind (2026)

"This is very good chamber rock, which is more acoustic based than electric, although it does rawk at points. Hints (but never copying) of Univers Zero or a less electric Far Corner make for an attractive debut. These folks show a lot of promise!
“Azafrán Media releases the first album of the chilean band ASCETA, featuring Rodrigo Maccioni, of Ábrete Gandul. Asceta, from Chile, follows the steps of legendary/ cult bands like Univers Zéro, Nazca, Miriodor, Art Zoyd and Présent.
It’s Rock in Opposition. It’s Stravinsky in the key or Rock. It’s contemporary chamber music with a good dose of eclecticism. You can now imagine how this band sounds and, the best part of it... no other but Udi Koomran took the mastering in his hands! Can you ask for more?”
