Kinda late on here, given I'm no longer on any social media Glenn is on so I missed the announcement. I was listening to Seven Sisters, and I was like, "That lead singer sounds awfully familiar." Looked him up, and he's also the singer for Phantom Spell, which also released a new album this...

A couple of comments: The funny thing about SLIFT is that I have one of their older albums buried in my Bandcamp wishlist. Obviously, I heard it through the Post Rock channel on YouTube I listen to, but haven't gotten around to picking it up yet. Guess I should. As for Albion, I actually...

Always look forward to this list. There are a few I have yet to pick up that I intended to (The Cryptex, Lovebites, Temic). There are some I was surprised by new albums that I didn't know were out (Cruachan, Karnataka, Riverside), and some that I wanted to look into further (The Anchoret...

Preorder is up - Release date 9/29/2023 www.cryptexofficialband.com/store/ cryptex1.bandcamp.com/merch First single - Cobra

If you are looking for the second coming of Rush, these guys definitely want to be considered for the role.

For those looking to support bands for Bandcamp Friday today, the bands that I have found there: Philosophobia My Sleeping Karma Pymlico High Castle Teleorkestra Silent Skies Oddly, the new Unprocessed isn't on Bandcamp, even if their previous album is. Same for Michael Romeo, since Part 1 is...

A lot of good stuff here, some of which I hadn't heard of and others I hadn't picked up yet. Listing the notable albums of the year in no particular order: Evergrey - A Heartless Portrait Porcupine Tree - Closure / Continuation CKRAFT - Epic Discordant Vision Silent Skies - Nectar Esprit D'Air...

Just found these guys today. Self described as Gregorian Jazz Metal, it is some pretty wild stuff, with a sax player and an accordion!

Maybe not one of the best for the year, but was pretty damn solid prog metal was Within Progress, who had a new release last year.

Gotta say, more excited for Wilderun than I ever was for Darkwater.

I just miss people in general. It has been tough the last 7 years, losing two music festivals and some of the community that I have. ProgPower is one of the few outlets I have left. I've been doing this from the beginning, missing three festivals in that time. The good thing about the June...

So far, I've only bought two metal albums this year. Haven't listened enough to either to say they are going to be amongst the best this year. Dark Horse, White Horse - S/T Need - Norchestrion

Disappointing, but not surprising. It would have been a really heavy lift on your part to make it happen this year. You previously mentioned that Beast In Black, which couldn't make it for 2021 after being postponed in 2020, would be confirmed for 2022. Is that no longer confirmed? If it...

It is pretty clear to me. Everyone except the founding member left the band and he's turning Delain back into the project it was originally. As for the reasons? I'm sure they don't want to air their dirty laundry in public. But, if everyone decided to leave, the disagreement must have been huge.

Really, more need to be said about these gals. They just keep releasing albums of good hard rocking music, and the new album is no exception.
