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...

NICK FLETCHER (UK) A Longing for Home

Fast on the heels of the universally received and praised 2023 album “Quadrivium”, Sheffield born Nick Fletcher elevates his craft on an immediate follow-up that will keep the prog crowd smiling in rapt delight. Having worked with John Hackett, whose famous brother...

NINE STONES CLOSE (UK) Adventures in Anhedonia

Barely 3 months after the release of their long-awaited return to form “Diurnal” album, Nine Stones Close keeps the prog foot on the prog pedal by launching an immediate follow-up that offers a darker, starker and heartfelt musical view on immortality, death, grief...

TEODICEA (ITALY) Il Mondo Esausto

Attention piano lovers! Début album from the first keyboard player Enrico Filippi from fellow Italian group Aliante (whom I happen to adore), venturing off into a new project by adding an athletic rhythm section composed of Jacopo Morandi on bass as well as drummer...

PATRICK BROGUIERE (France) Destinations

Like many among seasoned prog writers, the Rogue has compiled over the last half century (time flies) a colossal collection that is comprised of MOST of the top 2 tiers in terms of fame, which should not be surprising. But what may be shocking for some, is that there...

RUBY DAWN (UK) Blood on Water

This delectable UK band was among the top 25 recordings for 2023’s PROG ROGUE list, a very rare event for a debut release, as “Beyond Tomorrow “just stunned many a prog reviewer into complete agreement. Four veteran and highly gifted musicians who had us pundits...

ODDLEAF (FRANCE) Where Ideal and Denial Collide

A debut album with a title like that will definitely get the Rogue’s attention, and as transatlantic telepathic waves often work well, the band contacted this writer for a review of their impending release. Oddleaf has been working on this work for over 4 years, a...

FRANT1C (FRANCE) A Brand New World

Contrary to popular opinion vehiculated by many neophyte listeners discovering prog, our beloved genre does not limit itself to exploring only science-fiction, Tolkienesque tales, historical figures or deep philosophical topics. More often than not, the human...

Arka’n Asrafokor: Dzikkuh (2024)

Arka’n Asrafokor: Dzikkuh (2024)

I don’t know much about music from Africa, but when I heard that Togolese metal crossover band Arka'n Asrafokor were about to release their second album (their debut for RPM), I knew I had to find out more. Sepultura were the first to really get the local...

  • John Holden – Thresholds
    by Jane Lee on October 2, 2026 at 4:00 pm

    Throughout 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…

  • Nene Valley Rock Festival 2026 – Day One
    by Darren Walker on September 30, 2026 at 4:00 pm

    Grimsthorpe 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 1991-2011
    by 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 Day
    by 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…
