DONATE TO HOUSE OF PROG
Phobetor: When Life Falls Silent (2020)
This is the debut album from UK-base trio Phobetor who comprise Debora Conserva (vocals), Mitch Revy (guitar), Marc Dyos (drums) plus session bassist Richard Hunter. Although Conserva can sing gently when she wishes to, for the most part this is all about guttural...
Primacy: Seeds of Change (2020)
This is the debut album by West-Auckland alternative Metal band Primacy, which was produced and mixed by guitarist Jared Tobin and mastered by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Between the Buried and Me, Sepultura amongst others). They state their influences are as diverse as...
Slipknot: We Are Not Your Kind (2019)
Back in 1999 I was sent an album to review by a new band from Des Moines, Iowa. This was before there had been any mass media in the UK, and on hearing it I knew this band were going to be huge, but there was no way I could ever have imagined the impact they would...
Stench Of Profit: No Place To Hide (2020)
When the band has a name like Stench of Profit, and the first song is just instrumental keyboards, one just knows the rest of the album is not going to be like that, which is of course what we have here. Here we have 20 songs and a total running time of 36 minutes in...
Julie Bevan: Kaleidoscope (2019)
If one were to guess the origin of this album, one would certainly not say that it comes from New Zealand, as this has its heart firmly in South America and, at times, even Cuba. Kiwi guitarist Julie Bevan has longstanding ties with Brazil, and here we have six songs...
Miss Used: Paraland (2020)
Miss Used are a four-piece grunge blues band based in Auckland, who were formed in 2018, and this is their first EP. I have been fortunate enough to catch these guys in concert a few times recently, and they are somewhat unusual in that both guitarists are singers,...
Investigator: YOUnique (2020) single
Auckland-based Investigator are back with their second single from the forthcoming album, which they liken to a combination of Weezer and Pixies and they have that description pretty much nailed. It is somewhat slow for a rock number, but somehow it all works well...
Hayley McKay: Breathe (2020) single
Darlington-based singer Hayley McKay contacted me as she had been given my details by her cousin, Gary Miller of The Whisky Priests, and wondered if I would be interested in hearing her latest single. Having been a fan of Gary for the best part of 30 years I was of...

by Darren Walker on October 12, 2026 at 4:00 pmGrimsthorpe Castle, Bourne Friday, 4 September 2026 The torrential downpour that had made its unwelcome presence loudly known in the early hours of the morning might have felt like it belonged in the Bible but it soon passed and by…
- Ciro Perrino – Celeste
by Basil Francis on October 11, 2026 at 4:00 pmI wanted to start by hearing how you got into music at an early age and how Celeste came about. In truth, my relationship with music is connatural with my family. Therefore, since I was a child, I was “cradled”…
- The Pineapple Thief – Far And Wide
by Peter Hilton on October 9, 2026 at 4:00 pmIn the infancy of the internet era there were dial-up / email service providers, including my chosen supplier AOL. What has this got to do with The Pineapple Thief (TPT), you ask? Bear with me for a few paragraphs and…
- Nick Fletcher – An Unfolding Of Miracles
by Darren Walker on October 8, 2026 at 4:00 pmI am friends with many musicians, predominantly Prog, but a few who create music for less cultured tastes and most of them struggle to record and put out new material. Invariably they have day jobs, families and other things on…
- Kraanerg – Aria For Labellum Tongues
by Graham Thomas on October 7, 2026 at 4:00 pmKraanerg is the title of a ballet written by Iannis Xenakis in 1969. It is derived from the Greek and translates as ‘accomplished action’. It seems like an apt name for Nat Bergrin’s outfit, as they are certainly accomplished, and…
