A somewhat deathened take on standard prog metal
Review: DeLuziver – Chaos Walker

A lovely instrumental album combining Vietnamese folk with prog goodness
Review: Meer – Playing House
Catchy hooks and outstanding vocals from a Norwegian alt-pop octet.
Review: Scarred – Scarred
When an absurd variety of metal influences form a progressive metal soup, one must ask: do too many subgenres spoil the broth?
