1969年，MAGMA横空出世，带来了世人闻所未闻的奇异音乐，这是一支以Christian Vander（鼓手/作曲/人声）为灵魂人物的前卫乐队。

MAGMA几乎所有的作品都是描述Kobaïa文明的起源和发展，而且用的都是“Kobaïa语”—— MAGMA自己创造的语言。所以，在未来100年后的Kobaïa星球上的音乐也是和我们所熟悉的地球音乐迥然不同的。

融合了自由爵士、古典、布鲁斯、迷幻摇滚和世界音乐，MAGMA的音乐无法被被归类于任何一种前卫音乐的子分支中，因此，他们的风格被定义为“Zeuhl（在‘Kobaïa语’中为超凡绝顶之义）”。他们的音乐听起来非常奇怪，也非常优美，并且十分值得回味，但这需要听众有开放的思想。这种音乐是一种荡涤身心的体验：它不仅仅是音乐家们表演的太空史诗，也是维系演奏者与听众精神之间的纽带。

2014年9月至2015年11月，70岁的Christian Vander 和他的MAGMA将完成新一轮（也许会是最后一轮）的世界巡演——“The Endless Tour”。这支成立于1969年的传奇乐队还将继续传递他们无穷无尽的前卫狂想。

MAGMA is a progressive group led by drummer/composer/vocalist Christian Vander that was formed in 1969.

Most of MAGMA’s albums explain the origins and development of the new civilization on Kobaïa, and their interactions with the people of Earth and other planets. All of their lyrics are sung in the language of the new civilization, “Kobaïan”. As one might expect, the music from Kobaïa several hundred years from now is very unlike what we are accustomed to on twentieth century planet earth.

Combined with free jazz, classical, blues, Psychedelic Rock and world music, the band doesn't clearly fit in any other progressive subgenre, though avant-prog would qualify. So the music of MAGMA is often categorized as “Zeuhl” (which means 'heavenly' in Kobaïan, MAGMA's own language). Their music is very strange, beautiful, and ultimately rewarding, but it does require an open mind on the part of the listener. It is music that must be experienced fully with body, heart and soul: not simply a cerebral performance of some kind of space opera by clever musicians, but a full blown spiritual experience with the music acting as the connecting vehicle between performer and listener.

Now, led by 70-year-old Christian Vander, MAGMA are on a new (may be the last) tour-The Endless Tour. Surely they will left a legacy of endless imagination. It waits to be discovered by new converts, and continually by older fans alike.
