Band Spotlight: Soulsplitter – The Progspace 10th Anniversary Show

Germany’s Soulsplitter is the next band on our Spotlight series, presenting the bands for The Progspace 10th Anniversary Show.

Temic – Ceiba

This is a band going from strength to strength and this album will help them stand out in the progressive metal world. If it takes three more years until the next album, so be it, I can wait, because it is bound to be worth it.

Bigmoth – Carbon Error

This is a young band with hopefully a very promising future. Do not be surprised if they crop up at a venue near you or one of the European festivals. I hope this debut release will propel them on to greater success, because they have bags of potential.

Albums

Latest

A Somerset Parade – Carcosa

It took me a few listens to appreciate the entirety of this album. It is creepy, angry, and melodic with a gothic concept to boot. The band isn’t afraid to experiment and have the capacity to do that. Who knows what will be in store for them, but I for one can’t wait to see what that is.

Exocrine – Legend

This is another one of those bands that have passed me by until now. Legend is their fifth album in just under ten years. So not only is there a back catalogue to explore, but it shouldn’t be too long before album number six. Bring it on I say because the pros far outweigh the cons on this release, so it’s thumbs up from me.

Vipassi – Lightless

The more I played the album, the less I found I could criticise. I wonder if there will be more from this band, I certainly hope so. I also hope I get the chance to see them live. I have stopped having a bucket list of bands to see, it is never going to be empty.

Caligula’s Horse – Charcoal Grace

January is certainly serving up some sumptuous fruits, and this is another strong contender for my AOTY 2024. In these terrible times (was it not ever thus) where news is rarely good, releases such as this sustain me. They help to hold back pessimistic thoughts and long may it continue. The song writing is sublime, the execution flawless, and the urge to play the whole thing over again is inescapable.
