9 Eclectic Progressive Canterbury details

this is a new Alco Frisbass side project, driven by Patrick Dufour and Frédéric Chaput. They are offering eight excellent Canterbury and Jazz Rock infected instrumental songs, plus perfect drum programming as usual.

10 Orchestral Progressive Avant-Garde Metal details

This is a really worthy successor to the Beyond Twilight albums. Really heavy, but there are so many sophisticated parts intertwined with the metal riffs, so much to discover after repeated listens. Everything is top-notch here, but it is really the inspired songwriting which elevates this to masterpiece status.

What an opener! I love how the track alternates between a heavy, chugging theme and a majestic, calm hymn-like motif.

Cool how after two thirds of the time the track shifts into a different, happier theme, only to then fall back into the "aggression" riff.

Starts out as thrash-infested doom, ends in a glorious hymn - only to bring back the major/minor theme. Really cool.

This is as close to Progressive Blues as it will ever get. At least for a minute or two, then we suddenly find ourselves in a very experimental interlude with tribal singing and drumming, only to be followed by neoclassical arpeggios by piano and guitar. Well done!

8 Experimental Progressive Avant-Garde Krautrock details

This is my favourite project with multi-instrumentalist and producer Martin Archer being involved. The songs are originating in a marathon free-improvisation session, the recorded material later was refined by adding vocals and additional instruments. Trippy jazz tinged music, equipped with some Krautrock, Avantgarde and Zeuhl impact.

8 Symphonic Italian Progressive Art Rock details

rather typical retro styled blend of symphonic and art prog from Imola in Italy. Getting close to the likes of Premiata Forneria Marconi (PFM) this easily could be filed under the category Rock Progressivo Italiano. Fine compositions and excellent musicianship ...

8 Orchestral Progressive Rock details

Ambitious! 160 minutes playing time, apportioned to 14 songs in total. It will take some time to handle this properly. For example the Deluxe Edition comes as a 5-CD package, also including orchestral versions, this all in collaboration with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra.

A bunch of wellknown vocalists and musicians is involved. The stylistical frame at best might be marked as symphonic prog metal. This also features a strong operatic note alongside of the exceptional vocal presence.

10 Dark Extreme Modern Progressive Death Metal details

Arguably the best Opeth release overall. Everything comes together beautifully here, magnificent extreme metal with ghastly growls and serene melodies, harmonized in a peculiar symphonic way that is uniquely Opeth.

9 Symphonic Prog Rock details

My only complaint about this excellent concept album is that it takes a little bit too long to reach its peak, but that's only in comparison with Ayreon releases that are even better. A wonderful blend of styles, and beautiful tunes throughout.

6 Melodic White Rock details

Quite ok, but too preachy for my taste. And I can listen to Neal Morse's music without any problem (to give you a frame of reference). The music is typical melodic rock fare, with nice twin guitar leads, but also not really innovative.

On further reflection I realized what this release reminds me of: Ghost. This is like a "white", Christian version of Ghost. Cool, in a way, but ultimately not very exciting to listen to.

7 Neo Rock details

Regarding the band's entire catalogue I'd still prefer the former release 'The Great Lie'. What you will get here are ten nice accessible tracks, aiming to offer something melodic and charming, most certainly. However, more drifting into popular fields in this case
