Mark’s Quick Review: Karfargen’s – Messages from Afar: First Contact
Karfargen does not list Pink Floyd as an influence but the vocal tracks are straight out of Pink Floyd's Momentary Lapse of Reason. This atmospheric mostly instrumental album check all the boxes for me. Nice melodies, nice changes, some drama in places and an epic...
Mark’s Quick Review: Audio70’s – ElectRockProg(con)Fusion
This debut instrumental album from Vento region of Italy is a one man show with Luigi on the keyboards has above average song writing and the each song I like. There is some drama too with the 10 minute track Hypersequence. This is about as good as a one man band can...
Mark’s Quick Review: Riverside’s – Wasteland
One of the stand out performers of any genre, Riverside has released a new album this year and although I think that the hard core fans of the band are not very excited by it, I think it is another great album by this Polish prog band. Granted the loss of Piotr is...
Mark’s Quick Review: El tubo Elástico’s – Impala
There isn't an abundance of prog coming from Spain, but when it does come its usually pretty good. This album is no exception. This instrumental album is multi layered thanks to two guitars and keyboards. The song writing is top notch and songs are unique. And if you...
Mark’s Quick Review: Sunchild’s – Messages from Afar – The division of Illusion and Time.
Sunchild is a project by Ukrainian composer, musician, multi-instrumentalist, producer Antony Kalugin. The album is a light romp of glorious gateway prog. With a large ensemble to give this album its ultimate sound. The guitar sounds a bit Satriani like without so...
Mark’s Quick Review: Curious Grace & Black Rabbit’s – #WorldOnFire
A Chicago Sextet Curious Grace & Black Rabbit releases their debut album #WorldOnFire. They play a lot of venues that I frequent and I will go see them live sometime, but I can't recommend this album. I just couldn't find any melodies to hold on to. To me passages...
Mark’s Quick Review: Glass Hammer’s – Chronomonaut
Glass Hammer’s Chronomonaut the continuation of Chronometree story from 2001 out does its predecessor. The songs are well crafted and diverse. This album is a welcome edition to the Glass Hammer cannon. Matthew Parmenter's guest appearance on the Past is the Past is...
Mark’s Quick Review: Isla Fortune’s – Verity
This is a straight up rock album with some nice atmospheric additions long passages and interesting changes. The three piece band from Cyprus who puts out a hard hitting sound. I would suspect is a band you need to see live. Their energy is undeniable even in the...
Mark’s Quick Review: Grackle’s – The Quiet Noise
Full disclosure I have been a fan of Steve Katsikas work for 15 years thanks to his work with Little Atlas. and Strattman and I was lucky enough to hear this band live in Chicago. I can say with some certainty that if you are a fan of neo prog you will like this...
Mark’s Quick Review: Semantic Saturation’s – Paradigms
This is the follow up to their debut in 2013, Solipsistic which I particularly liked. This album has a few guests on it most notably keyboard player Derek Sherinian, but Alex and Houry's additions should not be over looked. The album is constantly entertaining with...
Mark’s Quick Review: IQ’s – Resistance
IQ in its 38th year inexplicably has released its most ambitious album to date with Resistance. This double album with three epic tracks. Not only is the scope of the album ambitious but the quality is as good as your favorite IQ album. If you were not a fan I...
Mark’s Quick Review: Pi Mezon’s – New World
The second album from Pi Mezon was highly anticipated album for me because I did like their debut. This Finnish band had an outstanding song on that album called the puppet which is reprised also in track 10 of the album. The second album did not disappoint after...
Mark’s Quick Review: United Progressive Fraternity’s – Planetary Overload – Part 1: Loss
Let me start this review by saying it will not be a quick review. I have been living with most every version of this album for the last 100 weeks as I first heard it at 2017 RoSFest. I am also a huge fan of Mark "Truey" Trueack - flying to Wales from Chicago to see...
Mark’s Quick Review: Red Bazar’s – Things as they Appear
The Quartet of Andy, Paul,Mick, and Pete are back with their 2019 release. In my estimation it is ther best work to date. Now that the band has had this lineup for a bit they seem to be able to write to their strengths and maybe the song writing has matured as well. I...
Mark’s Quick Review: Fernando Perdomo’s – Zebra Crossing.
I have had the pleasure of seeing Fernando Perdomo live a few times with Dave Kerzner and I can say he is one of the most electric musicians I have ever seen. I was delighted to see this album show up in my inbox. The album is full of nice melodies and I really...
Mark’s Quick Review: Haken’s – Vector Deluxe Edition
Haken's 5th studio album is another triumph for the band. This English band has had such a string of exceptional albums that are tricking a whole new generation of music fans into liking progressive rock. Wow this album does have a lot of notes in there, which...
