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...
Avatarium: The Girl With the Raven Mask (2015)

Avatarium: The Girl With the Raven Mask (2015)

This 2015 album was the second from Avatarium, a project put together by Candlemass bassist Leif Edling, drummer Lars Sköld (Tiamat), guitarist Marcus Jidell (Evergrey, Royal Hunt), his wife Jennie-Ann Smith on vocals and Carptree keyboard player Carl Westholm (who...

Avatarium: The Fire I Long For (2019)

Avatarium: The Fire I Long For (2019)

Between the second and third album both Leif Edling (bass) and Carl Westholm (keyboards) left Avatarium, being replaced by Mats Rydström and Rickard Nilsson respectively. Then between the third and this the fourth, released towards the end of 2019, drummer Lars Sköld...

Carol Albert: Stronger Now (2020)

Carol Albert: Stronger Now (2020)

Here we have the latest album from pianist Carol Albert, following from 2017’s ‘Fly Away Butterfly’. That album had been written and recorded in the period following the sudden death of her husband, and this is one where she feels she had made progress and has learned...

Daria Kulesh: Long Lost Home (2017)

Daria Kulesh: Long Lost Home (2017)

I have been fortunate in recent months to interview Daria Kulesh, and have also watched her “at home” concerts, so it seems somewhat strange to be coming to this her second album now, as I already know the songs so well. Released in 2017, it all started with just one...

Poisoned Livers: How the Poor Feel Rich (2020)

Poisoned Livers: How the Poor Feel Rich (2020)

The Auckland-based band describe their music as Stoner Punk, which somehow is quite apt. The music tastes and influences are quite varied with each band member, so it is a bit different from the mainstream genre, containing a heavy driven hard rock sound with a few...

Eluveitie: Live at Masters of Rock’ (2019)

Eluveitie: Live at Masters of Rock’ (2019)

Like many others, I am a huge fan of the 2019 studio album from Eluveitie, ‘Ategnatos’, and this album was recorded that year in the Czech republic at the Masters of Rock Festival while they were promoting it. Consequently, there are five numbers from that album...

Inverted Matter: Detach (2019)

Inverted Matter: Detach (2019)

When I am sent an album by a band I know little or nothing about, I always do some research even if I am sent a press release. This album was released in December 2019 (yes, I’m way behind on where I need to be with my reviewing but I am going as fast as I can), yet...

WHAT”S GOIN’ ON

  • Eivør – Tungl
    by Mel Allen on October 16, 2026 at 4:00 pm

    Over the course of eleven studio albums, Eivør has established herself as a formidable musical force, blending traditional Faroese folk music with electronic and experimental elements to create music that is both emotional and atmospheric. Coupled with her unique voice,…

  • Brand X – Theory Of Nothing
    by Ian Sharp on October 15, 2026 at 4:00 pm

    There’s more to Brand X than being the other band Phil Collins drummed for in the 1970s, allowing scope to express his interest in jazz/rock fusion when he wasn’t active in Genesis or elsewhere, yet that’s possibly how they are…

  • Michel St-Père – Like Father Like Son
    by David Edwards on October 14, 2026 at 4:00 pm

    Like Father Like Son is the intriguing first solo instrumental album by Michel St-Père, the founder, guitarist and creative force behind the Canadian progressive rock band Mystery (along with Huis). However, whilst there are prog elements to be found amongst…

  • 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”…
