Review: Haven of Echoes – The Indifferent Stars
Haven of Echoes are here to be your prog rock album of the year!
Review: Hypnagone – Qu’il Passe
A solid debut blending prog, jazz and metalcore.
Review: Hippotraktor – Meridian
This is another excellent album to come out of Pelagic Records; it’s angry, sophisticated, and heavy like an organized crate of bricks.
Review: Others by No One – Book II: Where Stories Come From
Others By No One releases a whale of an album that is just as incomprehensible as it is ingenious, combining zany elements throughout the prog sphere.
Review: Vivid Illusion – Vivid Illusion
A college essay of an album, presented to the class of post black 101 (Taught by Neige)
Review: 1000 Bone Cylinder Explosion – Bind
Take a moment to admire that artwork. That alone deserves an 11/10.
Review: Black Sites – Untrue
The gods of heavy metal keep on giving this year, this time with stoner vibes.
Review: Peculate – Your Own Personal Abyss
Peculate employs multiple styles to evoke a sense of dread with instruments one might normally find peaceful, which makes it all the more chilling and fascinating.

Looks like there is djent from China now. Is it good? Yes. But is it unique enough to stand out amongst the wave of instrudjental solo artists? Ehhh…
Review: Épiphanie – L’aube
The best musical character arc of 2021.
