Joshua Turner, Progressive World.net:
…Matthew Parmenter's Astray is rechargeable, reusable, and grows stronger with every use. This is progressive rock in its highest form. It's like a work of art that hangs on a museum wall. Patrons will see something new with each and every visit even when the details don't jump out at them right away…KinesisCD:
Matthew Parmenter is known for his narrative songwriting and costumed performances as front-man for the band Discipline, who have rightly been hailed as the American Van der Graaf Generator, and Parmenter as the American Peter Hammill. The first album under his own name, the 68-minute Astray (2004) is decidedly psychedelic in atmosphere and striking in its early 1970’s British vibe. Parmenter’s voice is smoother than Hammill’s and Astray is much more of a progressive rock album than any Hammill solo album. Parmenter was the main creative force in Discipline and came to dominate the band more and more, so in all important respects, this is the third Discipline studio album. Parmenter shows he is quite capable of handling the guitar and drums in addition to all the instruments he covered in Discipline. Discipline bassist Mathew Kennedy appears throughout the CD, the sole guest musician. Parmenter is modestly credited with “vocals, et cetera”, which includes piano, guitar, drums, saxophone, violin, organ, synthesizers, marimba, Theremin, and Mellotron. While Van der Graaf is the dominant influence, especially on the magnificent 21-minute finale Modern Times, there is also a substantial Pink Floyd influence as well as King Crimson circa 1973…
