A new studio album from the legendary band The Syn is scheduled for release in March. Trustworks is a collaboration that features Syn founder Steve Nardelli along with the Swedish progressive rock band Moon Safari. The album is scheduled for release on March 25th with Japanese release one week earlier.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

The band The Syn has a rich and extensive history in music. That is showcased in an upcoming film, titled \u201cMelody Makers, Should’ve Been There.\u201d Coming out this year, it is based on the acclaimed photographs of Barrie Wentzell. He was the house photographer for the classic magazine Melody Maker. Steve Nardelli is featured in the film, and The Syn song \u201cGrounded\u201d is also included.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Formed in 1965, The Syn was a precursor of the band Yes, with that band\u2019s former bassist (the late great Chris Squire) as one of the founding members. At various times The Syn has also included Yes alums Peter Banks and Alan White in their lineup.\u00a0 Other acclaimed musicians like Francis Dunnery, Brett Kull and Tom Brislin are also Syn alum. The 1967 incarnation of The Syn opened Jimi Hendrix\u2019s legendary first ever European show at the Marquee Club in London . The audience included The Beatles, members of Cream and The Rolling Stones and more rock royalty. The Syn did an exceptional job playing support to the genius that was Jimi Hendrix at his hottest. At the same time they made themselves known to a wide swath of British rock music royalty.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 2016 version of The Syn features band founder Steve Nardelli joined by renowned Swedish prog rockers Moon Safari. Jonas Reingold of The Flower Kings produced the album and Trustworks is already being anticipated as a master work.\u00a0 The mastering engineer at the illustrious Precision Mastering in Cropredy, Jeremy Paul Carroll (one of the very few people to have heard it finished) described it as \u201ca beautiful album, the best prog album of the last decade.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Trustworks preview is located here: http:\/\/8412.shop.textalk.se\/shop\/8412\/art37\/36241037-0f3d85-Preview_The first review of Trustworks was recently published at wormwoodchronicles.net\/torture-chamber\/the-syn-2. In the review, Colonel Angus says, \u201c\u2019Trustworks\u2019 does not disappoint.\u00a0 Although I would categorize The Syn as progressive, their music really harkens back to a style that mixes The Beatles, early Pink Floyd, and early Yes (naturally).\u201d\u00a0 He also said, \u201cNardelli is the star on \u2018Trustworks\u2019.\u00a0 His voice and song writing is what shines making this release a \u201cmust buy\u201d for any fans of The Syn or Yes.\u00a0 \u2018Trustworks\u2019 will probably last longer than a few weeks in my CD player and I trust it will do the same for you.\u201d<\/p>\n
