Review: Dessiderium – Aria
A great progressive death album with a hint of optimism instead of the usual entirely brooding fare.

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.

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.

Review: Royal Hunt – Dystopia
What, this album? Oh you know, It’s just prime progressive symphonic power metal is all.

Review: Scardust – Strangers
Kind of genius, but I’d still be embarrassed to play it in public.

Review: Armed Cloud – Torque
Highly technical and equally harmonious musicians give us a satisfying traditional progressive metal album.
