Releases of the Month Januar 2026 with The Hirsch Effekt, Zu, HamaSaari, Cold Night for Alligators, Textures, Enshine, Frore 5 Four, Yoni the Bassist, Sloen, Widek, Karambolage, Ascend the Helix, Juodvarnis, Alkaloid, Kostas Sampanis & IOTUNN

The Veer Union – Reinvention

I find the diverse unpredictability of the material appeals to me a lot, despite the shortness of the tracks. These 10 songs are predominately melodic but with an aggressive edge.

SPACE Quartet in Tienen – Progressive Spirit, Pure Improvisation

At first glance, SPACE Quartet might not seem like an obvious feature for an international progressive rock platform. A Belgian improvisation collective built around an electric sitar does not fit neatly into the conventional prog canon. Yet that is precisely why it...

Genus Ordinis Dei – The Beginning

This album grew on me the more I played it. There is much more variety within its 12 tracks than it first appears as well as melody. It has been three years since their previous release. Whilst that is not too long compared to some bands, I hope they are already working on the next one.

Kalle Wallner (Blind Ego)

Blind Ego & Lesoir in Freising, February 25 2018

Postponed or not - Blind Ego playing their hometown of Freising always promises to be a special party. After the original tour dates had to be cancelled due to a severe case of laryngitis of singer Scott Balaban, they were quite lucky to be able to reschedule most of...

Orphaned Land in Arnhem, February 24 2018

On a cold winter day in the Netherlands, Orphaned Land could not have wished for a better start of their “Unsung Prophets & Dead Messiahs” tour: In Arnhem’s small Willemeen club, they were welcomed by a frenetic audience - for the first time an Orphaned Land show...

Epica with Vuur and Myrath, Hamburg 13 November 2017

A very interesting package, consisting for two bands led by two of the best Dutch female voices out there – Epica with Simone Simons and Anneke van Giersbergen’s new band Vuur – and the oriental metal of Myrath from Tunisia. Definitely one of the concert highlights of 2017!

Leprous live in Hamburg

Tour review: Malina 2017 – Leprous, Agent Fresco, Alithia and Astrosaur

With all the surprises, strong support (or co-headliner) acts and a Leprous performance that seemed out of this world, the “Malina” tour ranks on the top of the list of 2017, for some (like our Munich reviewer Dario!) even leaving behind the likes of the Ayreon Universe shows and Shattered Fortress, both among the highlights of the concerts roster of 2017 in Europe. Leprous are superstars, and deservedly so.

Soen at Progpower Europe 2017

ProgPower Europe 2017

nce again, a small portion of Europe’s prog family (and a tiny part of the global one) gathered in the little Dutch town of Baarlo at the beginning of October to celebrate the annual ProgPower Europe (PPE) festival - this year it lasted from...
