Interview: Everon
I recently had the opportunity to talk with Oliver Philipps, the singer/guitarist/keyboardist of prog rock veterans Everon. Here’s what he had to say:
Album Reviews
Review: Everon – Shells
Even though we were still using flip phones the last time we heard from [Everon], Shells has lost none of the band’s old lustre.
Album Reviews
Review: Anubis Gate – Interference
Whether you’re an old fan of Andromeda Unchained or a current diehard follower, Interference is not to be missed.

Review: Chaos over Cosmos – The Silver Lining Between the Stars
Listening to Silver Lining is exactly like when my Necrophagist-loving friend used to send me his Guitar Pros – robotic note spam for minutes on end.
Album Reviews
Review: Loch Vostok – Opus Ferox – The Great Escape
Quality writing has no genre, and it carries this album that somehow manages to have no identity for 48 minutes and still be good.
Album Reviews
Review: Gravestone – Ars Arcana
The songs take a lot of strange turns, with chord changes and melodies never quite leading where you expect, but ending up somewhere tasteful nonetheless.
Album Reviews
Review: Voland – Voland III: Царепоклонство – Il culto degli Zar
Both members have done a great job of taking a less-traveled subject in metal and portraying it with every tool at their disposal.
Album Reviews
Review: Forlesen – Hierophant Violent
A combination of beautiful and unsettling doom/drone goodness.
Album Reviews
Review: Scardust – Strangers
Kind of genius, but I’d still be embarrassed to play it in public.
Album Reviews
Review: Starbynary – Divina Commedia: Paradiso
Despite some moments of promise, most of the album is stuck in the dead zone of “complex but not interesting” prog parts.
