Lunatic Soul is the new solo project from Riverside vocalist Mariusz Duda. It takes a different (but equally valid) path than Riverside. Lunatic Soul is expansive and meditative. Duda dials everything down a bit - there are no electric guitars on the album. The key is his ability to convey that emotional sledgehammer with his voice. His main collaborator is keyboardist Maciej Szelenbaum who also plays flute and trumpet. Duda plays a variety of instruments including acoustic guitar, keyboards, and bass. The rest of the band is quite interesting - a sort of who's who of the current Polish progressive rock scene. Indukti's Wawrzyniec Dramowicz performs on drums, Riverside's Michał Łapaj kicks in with Hammond organ, and Quidam's Maciej Meller offers some tasty e-bow guitar.

Outstanding new album from Riverside's bassist/vocalist Mariusz Duda. While a clear departure from the semi-Floydian musical stylings of his home band, he achieves equally valid results with his more acoustic approach here. This is a subtle musical statement which requires attentive and, perhaps, repeated listening to fully grasp. Highly recommended. Leyth

This one should make many top ten lists for 2008. A beautiful and compelling collection of songs from one of the most talented musicians recording today. What a voice! As Ken is prone to say: BUY of DIE!!
