Mantas: Winds Of Change (1988)
There is no doubt that Jeff ‘Mantas’ Dunn has a lot to answer for, as there are very few bands can say they released an album which created such an impact it spawned a whole new genre, but that is exactly what happened with Venom’s second album, ‘Black Metal’. Their...
Frostlake: The Weight of Clouds (2021)
I really enjoyed the most recent album from Frostlake, ‘Shattered Stone’, so much so that I decided to discover their previous release which was from 2021. This was their third album, with Jan Todd (vocals, voices, lyrics, acoustic/electric/12 string guitars, E-bow,...

Howard Rankin: A New Day [Photography Book] (2026)
I have a great many music books in my collection, but this is a new style for me, namely a book of concert photos taken over the tours which tied in with the last three Solstice albums, ‘Sia’, ‘Light Up’ and ‘Clann’, which collectively are known as ‘The Sia Trilogy’....
DALTONISTS (POLAND) Gradient
By sheer perseverance and absolute luck , I landed on an online video of a piece from their previous debut album, recently released in September 2025. It was so good, I immediately purchased it on Bandcamp, as well as this November 2025. Why, may you ask? A multitude...
CASTANARC (UK) Forged by the Sun
This is a band that started out from the same progressive revival gates that spawned IQ, Marillion, Pallas and Pendragon back in the early 80s when prog was considered buried and dead by the fussy musical media. 1984 ‘s “Journey to the East” had many interesting...
ARTESIA (France) Le Monde D’Hier
Another recent discovery has landed in my lap, as I was busy searching for some modern medieval tinged music, lo and behold, here is a neoclassical darkwave group (fine, labels are for pharmacies) from Brittany that I instantly purchased on Bandcamp within 10 seconds...
The SAMURAI of PROG (MULTI-NATIONAL) The 7 Voyages of Sinbad
The superlatively prolific warriors never seem to run out of ideas, not surprising as there are so many more subjects out there still needing a prog rock soundtrack! There is always a lot to like about this multi-national congregation of Prog luminaries : lots of...
John GREENWOOD (AUSTRALIA) First Day
Our favourite ex-surgeon is back with a third solo album that should cause shudders of joy across the progressive universe. With luminaries like Roger King and Sean Timms on keyboards and the amazing Chester Thompson on the drum kit, John delivers with guitar scalpel...

by Jane Lee on October 2, 2026 at 4:00 pmThroughout our lifespan we are constantly transforming. Some of these changes are voluntary while others are forced upon us by circumstance, but after they have occurred we are not quite the same person as before. And as we approach the…

by Darren Walker on September 30, 2026 at 4:00 pmGrimsthorpe Castle, Bourne Thursday, 3 September 2026 Introduction… Before I set off to the Nene Valley Rock Festival I began to think of all the music festivals that there are held each year, be they Prog, tribute acts or pop.…
- Various Artists – We Are The Beautiful: Two Decades Of Shoegaze 1991-2011by John Giordano on September 29, 2026 at 4:00 pm
As mentioned in another recent review, I’m particularly fond of box sets that cover a scene as opposed to an artist. Because my familiarity with shoegaze is spotty at best, I thought that the We Are The Beautiful compilation would…
- Celeste – Prince Of One Dayby Basil Francis on September 28, 2026 at 4:00 pm
The progressive scene in Italy took slightly longer to catch on than it did in the UK, with PFM and Banco’s stunning debuts and sophomores only showing up in 1972, by the time Yes and many other British groups had…
