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: Exanimis – Marionnettiste
An incredibly strong orchestral death metal album with a brainy progressive edge.
Review: Meer – Playing House
Catchy hooks and outstanding vocals from a Norwegian alt-pop octet.
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.
Review: Seth Angerer – Utrotningen | Symphony No. 2
An enjoyable “instrumetal” album that manages to avoid most of the common traps of the genre.
Review: Everthrone – Everthrone
Think Nightwish, if all their songs were “Nemo.”
Review: Humavoid – Lidless
