Review: Hypnagone – Qu’il Passe
A solid debut blending prog, jazz and metalcore.
Review: Parthian – Desolation of a Ceaseless Dawn
Parthian exceed superficial expectations with their level of songwriting coherency and proficiency, establishing a Lovecraftian narrative and hitting home with excellent, diverse compositional material.
Review: Blake Hobson – The Spectaculator
A spectacular journey that fans of zany, wonderfully composed prog should jump on right away.
Review: Gutvoid – Durance of Lightless Horizons
Canadians close the summer months an summon winter with dark ritual of an album.
Review: Vrylnia – The Other World
One of the most perfectly standard symphonic power metal albums ever produced.
Review: SPHERES – Helios
A flawed yet endearingly weird work for all you lovers of zany prog metal.
Review: Andy Gillion – Arcade Metal
Putting all your skill points into dex.
Review: Parius – The Signal Heard Throughout Space
The most fun you’ll have with spaceships and acid lakes all year!
Review: Xenobiotic – Hate Monolith
Xenobiotic’s new brutally heavy EP shows great promise for the band’s future!
Review: Virtual Symmetry – Virtual Symmetry
Sometimes a return to my origin–bread and butter prog metal–is all I need.
