Mark’s Quick Review: Isproject’s – The Archinauts
This one year old debut album from Italian duo Ivan Santovito and Ilenia Salvemini is full of prog goodness. Had I heard this album last year It would have received attention for best debut album. This duo along with others Giovanni Pastorino - Keyboards &...
Mark’s Quick Review: Oscillazioni Alchemico Kreative’s – Giordano Bruno
Multi-Instrumentalist Jerry Cutillo surrounded himself with a great band and gursts for a concept album about the first scientific martyr Giordano Bruno. This band which has been putting out albums since 1993 has really put together a solid album. Despite making and...
Mark’s Quick Review: Elizabeth the last’s – Elizabeth the last
As you may have noticed I am not always to keen on instrumentals, but this one caught my ear right away. There is drama immediately from the first measures of the first measures of Centralia. There are many layers to these songs which is performed primarily with André...
Mark’s Quick Review: Alizarin’s – Cast Zenith
Alizarin a west coast, 3 piece, guitar centric, instrumental band sent us their disk. This is typically not my thing and in some ways this album is not really made for me. I still liked it though there are great melodies here and not as much guitar virtuousness as...
Mark’s Quick Review: Hillward’s – System
This is my first Hillward ablum and their second album. This quintet is born from the ashes of Southern Cross. This heavy yet melodic album appeals to me and will appeal to a lot of listeners that like that sub genre of progressive rock. This album doesn't really have...
Mark’s Quick Review: The Pineapple Thief’s – Dissolution
The Pineapple Thief's Dissolution was highly anticipated by me. I have never seen them live only Bruce Soord solo. They might be my most sought after live act now. This album has added to their moody mystique and it contains great melodies and interesting but...
Mark’s Quick Review: Onysus’s – Dyosun: Between Two Worlds
This is a debut album from Onysus of Braga, Portugal. Great to see another young band from southern Europe putting out a quality prog album. This album sci-fi concept album tells of the story of the alien James and his visit to earth, but this is a world that would...
Mark’s Quick Review: Komie’s – Afterglow
Komie’s – Afterflow Did you ever wish you could get into Joe Satriani but all those notes? Where then check out multi Emmy award winner Komie, as he has come out with a debut album which is a fun guitar driven instrumental romp. If you like Satriani technical...
Mark’s Quick Review: Artyfiction’s – Preliminaries
Artyfiction's – Preliminaries This is a debut album from Poland and its is quite good in spots. Short answer is this is a moderate recommendation for the album. There are some wonderful moments on this album and some other parts that I didn't really like at all. They...
Mark’s Quick Review: Kingcrow’s – The Persistance
Kingcrow's – The Persistance Album 7 from Italy's Kingcrow has is as good as any album they have ever come out with. This album is full of crunchy guitars and Melodic tones. The perfect complement for my ears. Diego Marchesi on vocals is the perfect complement to the...
Mark’s Quick Review: Evan Hause’s – Plastic Island Pentecost
Composer Evan Hause has released his debut album. Evan, who has a Doctorate of Music Arts and Master of Music degrees, has put out an album I am sure his friends would appreciate. As for me the album fell flat. Once I heard it I thought this is music written for...
Mark’s Quick Review: ZW’s – If It’s Real
ZW is the Duo of Drummer Mark Zonder (Fates Warning, Warlord, Chroma Key) and Gary Wehrncamp (Shadow Gallery) just to name a few. After corresponding for more than a decade the two have joined up to make the first album. If It's Real The Can't Believe starts...
Mark’s Quick Review: Falling Edge’s – FE3
I had never heard of this band before but their third album is gaining some traction and I want to thank them for sending me their music. I will keep an eye on this band but this album is still not quite good enough for me to recommend you buy it. This musicianship is...
Mark’s Quick Review: Emerald Dawn’s – Nocturn
The third album from Emerald Dawn proves to be the charm. After putting some slightly above albums out prior to this in 2014 and 2017 but the song writing took a leap forward in this album. The album is basically four long songs with one clocking in at 20 minutes. ...
Mark’s Quick Review: Dream Theater’s – Distance Over Time
Well. For me the Astonishing was astonishingly bad. It is, to this day, only concert I ever walked out of. I feel sad about that. Because here is a band trying to do something different and that should be applauded. Instead, it was met with disdain from me. ...
