Gryphon Reinvention UK 2-LP vinyl set

GRYPHON Reinvention (2018 limited edition UK Plane Groovy label 11-track 2xLP set pressed on 180g vinyl-A bold and unexpected return from one of progressive music’s most distinctive voices, Reinvention sees Gryphon re-emerge with a work that both honours their medieval-tinged heritage and embraces a fresh, contemporary vitality. Decades on from their classic 1970s output, Gryphon sound revitalised—reconnecting with the intricate arrangements and rich instrumental textures that firstset them apart, while allowing new ideas to shape their evolving identity. The album effortlessly blends early music influences with progressive structures, weaving together crumhorns, bassoon, guitars, and keyboards into a sound that is as unique today as it was in their heyday. From the opening moments, Reinvention establishes a sense of purpose and renewal. Complex, shifting compositions unfold with confidence, balancing pastoral melodies with moments of playful eccentricity and dynamic interplay. There’s a clear joy in the performances, as if the band are rediscovering their own musical language in real time. Tracks move seamlessly between stately, almost courtly passages and more driving, rhythmically intricate sections, showcasing both the technical prowess and the distinctive character that define Gryphon. The arrangements are rich without ever feeling overburdened, each instrument given space to breathe within the ensemble. Presented on vinyl, Reinvention gains an added warmth and depth, perfectly complementing its organic instrumentation and nuanced dynamics. This release stands not only as a comeback, but as a reaffirmation—proof that Gryphon remain masters of their craft, capable of bridging past and present with elegance, imagination, and unmistakable charm.
