Mark’s Quick Review: Visionoir’s – The Waving Flame of Oblivion
Visionoir's – The Waving Flame of Oblivion There is a lot to like here for fans of slightly heavier progressive rock. I sometimes forget how heavy an album this is thanks to the large polyphonic sound. The Waving Flame of Oblivion is full of interesting changes and...
Mark’s Quick Review: The Slyde’s – Awakening
The Slyde’s – Awakening Holy Coheed and Cambria Batman. If I didn't know better I would have thought this was a C&C album. Nathan Da Silva's vocals and the music sounds very reminiscent of C&C, a very good C&C album. This for me has great syncopation,...
Mark’s Quick Review: Laura Meade’s – Remedium
Laura Meade’s – Remedium Another wonderful singer and person is on tap for today's review. Laura Meade, also know for her work in IZZ, has put out a solo album. Our first meeting was at ProgWest 2002 and we have seen her perform with IZZ a few times. We always had a...
Mark’s Quick Review: Overture’s – Self Titled Album
In the mood for some Italian Prog, well then look no further than this debut from Overture. This album has all the hooks, time signatures and sounds that you would expect from a classic Italian Prog Band. Most songs are in the nine minute range and flow very nicely...
Mark’s Quick Review: Rava’s – The Sun Remains the Same
Rava's The Sun Remains the Same, is from a finish band Rava that I never heard of before. This 4 song album 1 hour long song is quite impressive. The music is moody, polyphonic and rich with drama. Their songs are instrumental and they seem to have mastered the art of...
Mark’s Quick Review: The Sea Within’s – The Sea Within
Super group the Sea Within, formed in 2017 by Swedish guitarist and singer-songwriter Roine Stolt, bassist Jonas Reingold and guitarist Daniel Gildenlöw, German drummer Marco Minnemann, and American keyboardist Tom Brislin. I was fortunate to hear this band at Night...

Damanek's In Flight album is the sophomore release from Guy Manning and crew. The album is due for release Oct 5th 2018. The name is a concatenation of DAniel Mash, Guy MANing and MerEK Arnold. Going into the review I feel that I have to disclose that I am pretty fond...
Mark’s Quick Review: The Bridge’s – Reunion
A Chilean band with an edge. This is for fans of Dream Theater's melodies Shield For Me sounds a bit like DT's missunderstood actually. This album will take a few listens possibly but you will be rewarded with a very enjoyable album. Their self described influences...
Mark’s Quick Review: Bibeau’s – Dinosaur Photos
Bibeau’s – Dinosaur Photos Here is a prog band from Texas which I personally love to see. Lots of my friends to the south rightfully complain that they do not get many prog acts down their way. This heavy prog band is really what it says it is. Heavier prog with a...
Mark’s Quick Review: Grill’s – The Eternal Presence
Grill is a four piece Rock band based in Sydney, Australia, drawing influences from jazz fusion, world music and experimental rock. According to the band, “‘The Eternal Presence’ is a modern interpretation of their relationship with nature, and through emotive vocals...
Mark’s Quick Review: 25 Yard Screamer’s – Keep Sending Signals
The album with consists of a few bright moments but not enough for me to recommend the album. The recording seems muted and flat. Its all vocals and symbols. This album has some songs from their first CD they ever came up with and I can't help feel like they did...
Mark’s Quick Review: Karikus’ – The Fold
This is a band I probably should have heard of before this their fifth album. They have played Crescendo and Night of the Prog. This concept album based on a cinematic narrative approach which is really right where I like my music to be. My favorite album of...
Mark’s Quick Review: RPWL’s – Tales From Outer Space
RPWL is one of my favorite bands, period. I have seen them perform in three different countries, so I was super excited to get this album two months early. The band rarely disappoints. The album starts out with a great opening track called A New World which has...
Mark’s Quick Review: Nauticus’ – Disappear in Blue.
Check this out this album is like mellow doom metal. This band from Turcu. So in that way I love that this band really has defined their own sound. That sound really is not something I am falling in love with at this point. They maybe were trying to get a sound that...
Mark’s Quick Reviews: Kalika’s – Enter Kalika
Indian players from the Netherlands sound like a great combination. Well sorry to say this album really missed the mark for me. Dreary sound, underwhelming production. They have over 1000 likes on facebook but not one is facebook a friend of mine. Its possible...
Mark’s Quick Review: Esthema’s – IIII
This album is not really in my sweet spot of prog. Its instrumental and a bit avant-garde for me. The melodies come seem dreary when they were probably going for moody. The first track Be. Goes on way too long and I get to a point where I don't want to hear the...
