Philosophobia – Philosophobia
Bands like Philosophobia prove beyond doubt that there is still decent music around.

Charlie Griffiths – Tiktaalika
Whether any of this material makes it onto the live scene remains to be seen, we can only hope. Failing that, another project from Charlie would be very welcome.

Juan S. Garcés – Personal Warfare
Quito is the capital city of Ecuador. It is also the home of a guitarist who is little known about...

The Aristocrats – The Aristocrats With Primuz Chamber Orchestra
This album should be filed under the special category in the annals of music history. I hope it proves to be a success and spurs them onto many more exciting projects.

Evergrey – A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament)
There’s plenty of variety across the tracks, be it grandiose, driving riffs or sombre moments, and it never gets boring. I think this new release has re-ignited my love for these Swedes.

Monuments – In Stasis
These guys are definitely flying the flag for UK technical metal. They are not the only ones of course, but for me, they do stand out from the crowd. Hopefully, we have not seen the last of them, as this current line-up works well. The prospect of further releases is an exciting one, that is for sure.

Soledad – XIII
Here we have a talented young band with bags of potential. Lola’s song writing is excellent and the whole approach seems very professional. I believe they will go on to bigger things and even better material. Long may both Soledad and that French je ne sais quoi continue.

Michael Romeo – War of the Worlds, Pt. 2
Michael is not only influenced by great guitarists, but also classical composers such as Beethoven, Ravel and Stravinsky. The maestro’s back catalogue speaks for itself, and this striking addition only strengthens that portfolio.

Kimaera – Imperivm
It never ceases to amaze me how many great bands there are out there and some in unlikely places. After all the setbacks they have still managed to produce a quality album. The like of which is a much-needed lifter of spirits in these depressing times.

SYK – Pyramiden
Pyramiden is quite unlike anything I have come across before. But if you like your metal on the extreme side, this could be for you.

Ghost Toast – Shade Without Color
If you want something a little different to add to your no doubt already excellent collection, look no further.

Allegaeon – Damnum
The prospect of seeing Allegaeon play at least some of this album live, is mouth-watering indeed. But for now, this new offering from these masters of their craft, will have to suffice.

Arjen Anthony Lucassen’s Star One – Revel in Time
You sort of know what you are going to get from Arjen, but he always manages to surprise. Fans of Star One won’t be disappointed, it’s a great pair of albums.

Riverwood – Shadows and Flames
I cannot fault “Shadows and Flames” in any way. I believe and hope that we have not seen the last of this band.

Magnum – The Monster Roars
It may not necessarily be a typical Magnum album, but it certainly has the Magnum sound and does not disappoint. It’s full of well-crafted material and bodes well for the band in the years to come.

Syrek – Story
Narration that is delivered like a children’s story, but with music for grown-ups. It’s an unusual approach, but oddly comforting. I think it really is a monster.

Rage of Light – Redemption
Something tells me that we haven’t seen the last of Rage of Light. I think there’s plenty more ideas brewing, and I’ll be keen to get a taste.

Lychlake – The Tragedy of Doctor Faustus
This album is musically sumptuous, lyrically flamboyant and mischievous, creepy, weird and any other superlatives you care to think of.
