The John Irvine Band: Take Me To Your Leader (2026)

UK artist John Irvine and his The John Irvine band has been a part of the UK progressive rock scene for 15 years or thereabout as a recording venture, and are best known for their instrumental albums that blends progressive rock and jazzrock into a tasteful and...

Fjall: Helt (2026)

Without looking at the press release I had it in my mind that these guys were probably Norwegian, little did I know they were somewhat closer to home and are an English group comprising Martin Archer (Bb and bass clarinets, sopranino saxophone, flute, bagpipe chanter,...

Lynch Mob: The Final Ride [Live] (2026)

Here we have the live album recorded on their ‘The Final Ride’ tour, and although they released what was supposed to be their last ever studio album at the end of last year, I note that since then George has again changed the rest of the band. The line-up here is of...

Faustian: Parable Of The Sewer (2026)

Since forming in 2019 the three members of Melbourne-based outfit Werewolves have not been hanging around in that they have released seven albums, while also being active in other outfits, so in the downtime they created Faustian to pursue technical black metal and...

Bloodcog: Musics for the Savage Planet (2026)

I am truly fortunate that I enjoy the music I do, as it allows me to experience levels of nerdvana I would never otherwise come across, and given I work in IT I can be a geek at work and sometimes feel the same when I am sat writing. I cannot imagine there being many...

Acolythus: Unearthly Kingdoms ‘Neath Lifeless Stars (2026)

This is quite an interesting release in that all the guys are also founder members of Sargassus, a progressive post-metal act who have been around since 2012, although they only released their debut last year. Angrmáni (Matias Stenman, guitar, vocals), Maleficarum...

Emerald Moon: The Sky’s The Limit Tour (2026)

I have known Thierry Sportouche for more years than either of us would probably like to admit, and I have been a contributor to his Acid Dragon for more than 30 years. There are times when he sends me some French CDs he is sure I would like to review, which is how I...

Distressed: Made Of Stone (2026)

The Finns are back with their second album, with the same line-up as 2023’s ‘Nothing For No One’ debut, namely Petri Lindström (guitar), Jarno Törns (guitar), Jari Penttinen (bass), and Juha Säpsä (drums) and Jarrno Virtanen (vocals). As I said last time, anyone who...

Hecate Enthroned: The Corpse of a Titan, A Lament Long Buried (2026)

Hecate Enthroned have never been the most prolific of bands, and the last of theirs I heard, the excellent ‘Virulent Rapture’ (2013) came out some 9 years after the previous one. Since then lead singer Elliott Beaver has left to be replaced by Joe Stamp, which means...

Dimmu Borgir: Grand Serpent Rising (2026)

I am probably one of the few writers who really enjoyed their last album, 2018’s ‘Eonion’, but even I was bemoaning the loss of ICS Vortex and now the band is down to just two official members with Shagrath and Silenoz, as Galder, who had been guitarist with the band...
Engutturalment Cephaloslamectomy: Glam Not Slam (2020)

Engutturalment Cephaloslamectomy: Glam Not Slam (2020)

I love it when bands don’t take themselves too seriously. When one gets past the comedy of the cover art which is so over the top it is the only possible reaction, one realises the first song is titled “Worthless Intro You Will Skip”. It is not long before one sees...

Dave Plotel – Rock Jimi EP

Two Side Moon Promotions Jan 2019 www.twosidemoon.com Time -21:28 https://www.facebook.com/Daveplaying/ https://daveplotel.bandcamp.com/album/rock-jimi My Rating 90/100 It is always interesting for me, when reviewing music, to come across musicians from North London,...

Built For the Future –Brave New World

Built For the Future –Brave New World

USA –Private Press https://www.built4thefuture.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/353722211450935/ 75mins My Rating 90/100 This is the second album by Texan band ‘Built for the Future’ an outfit created by long time musical cohorts Patric Farrell and Kenny Bissett....

Kreator: London Apocalypticon (2020)

Kreator: London Apocalypticon (2020)

Unless you are lucky enough to live in somewhere like NZ, there is no live scene at the moment (apparently when L.A.B. played recently it was the first arena gig anywhere in the world for months. I have been using the lack of overseas acts to catch up more on the...

Liar: Sunset Plaza Drive (2020)

Liar: Sunset Plaza Drive (2020)

I had to do a double take when I saw the name of this band, surely it couldn’t be the same Liar who released ‘Set The World On Fire’ back in 1978? That was their second album, and it was also to be their last as for some reason the third album was never picked up and...

Marko Hietala: Pyre Of The Black Heart (2020)

Marko Hietala: Pyre Of The Black Heart (2020)

At long last we have the first solo album from Marko Hietala (no, I have not spelled it incorrectly, historically he has been known as “Marco” but on this album has amended the spelling back to what it should be). He of course provides bass and lead vocals, and is...

The Night Flight Orchestra: Aeromantic (2020)

The Night Flight Orchestra: Aeromantic (2020)

Unless Björn Strid (lead vocals) and David Andersson (guitar) are careful, people are soon going to start talking about Soilwork as their side band as opposed to this one. Formed by the pair back in 2007 when they were touring the States with Soilwork, the line-up was...

Oath of Damnation: Fury and Malevolence (2020)

Oath of Damnation: Fury and Malevolence (2020)

This is the second album from Australian act Oath of Damnation, some six years on since the debut. Mind you, since then they have parted ways with keyboard player and lead singer Formosus which can always cause difficulties. These days the vocals are handled by...

WHAT”S GOIN’ ON

  • Nene Valley Rock Festival 2026 – Day Two
    by Darren Walker on October 12, 2026 at 4:00 pm

    Grimsthorpe 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 pm

    I 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 pm

    In 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 pm

    I 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 pm

    Kraanerg 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…
