Magma – Zëss

Since the dawning of the new millennium, Christian Vander has been quite content to rest on his laurels, only re-entering the studio to re-record pieces that never made it to the studio back in the ’70s (and even some that…

We Are Kin – Bruised Sky

It’s been a long long time, hasn’t it? A good couple of years, which saw Emma Brewin-Caddy working with Cantor Semper in the hiatus. A close harmony group with musical accompaniment, in my view, and very nice it is too.…

Loomings – Hey Weirdo!

You called…? Hey Weirdo! is the strangely gentle and gently strange second album from multi-national outfit Loomings, now based in Strasbourg. The album arrives a mere four years after their debut, which was on the now seemingly sadly defunct AltrOck…

Henry Kaiser / Anthony Pirog / Tracy Silverman / Jeff Sipe / Andy West – Five Times Surprise

The download version of this comes with a 40-minute bonus track! Jeez… anyway, we’ll get to that later. Comparisons are pretty lame, and an easy cop-out for the amateur scribbler, but I have to say that on first listen, at…

Hemina – Night Echoes

This is the fourth album from Aussie Prog metal band Hemina, a band I’ve been following with interest for a few years now, and who are led by Douglas Skene, guitarist with fellow Aussie proggers Anubis. In Hemina he also…

Mike + the Mechanics – Out of the Blue

Although as reviewers at The Progressive Aspect we are quite free when it comes to form and content of our work, some limitations remain: the subject should clearly belong to the ‘Prog’ category and compilations or ‘best of’ albums are…

A Different Aspect #30

In this update we feature: > Scott Lawlor – Atom Heart Mother > Cykada – Cykada > Thorsten Quaeschning – Cargo Original Soundtrack > Albion – You’ll Be Mine > Fernando Perdomo – Out To Sea 2 > Neutral Sons…

concrete concrete – Drifter

I assume, like myself, that many reading this review will be unfamiliar with concrete concrete, a Brooklyn based instrumental trio, who formed circa three years ago. But are they a trio? I can only assume that there has been a…

PsychoYogi – Accident Prone

One of the great joys in life is discovering new music that challenges as well as entertains, something I find a lot in the progressive music realm. For those who say there is nothing new nowadays, then I say you…
