Hopsydian – A Graceful Sin EP

July 23, 2026 | Albums

These early steps on what should be a very promising journey for the band firmly states their intent to succeed. It’s a relatively short glimpse into what this band is about and hopefully there will be more to come soon.

Empyrean Sanctum – Detachment from Reality

by | Apr 17, 2025

I have no doubt that this album will be popular given enough exposure/publicity. Which of course is what we at the Progspace strive to do, especially for these relatively unknown bands. There is plenty of creativity, resulting in a mixture of styles from progressive metal to funk and much more, with a generous sprinkle of modern metal.

Fractal Universe – The Great Filters

by | Apr 16, 2025

“The Great Filters” is a great exploration of a question that has been inspiring astronomers, physicians, philosophers and conspiracy theorists alike. The album dives well into the matter, both lyrically and sonically.

Allegaeon – The Ossuary Lens

by | Mar 31, 2025

Like all the best albums The Ossuary Lens gets better with every play because there is so much going on. If, and I hope this is the case, an eighth album is planned then bring it on I say.

Vermilia – Karsikko

by | Mar 19, 2025

The combination of Finnish lyrics, seamless blending of aggression and melody, and a beautiful approach to vocal layering, makes Vermilia’s music a constant clash of contrasting aesthetics that seems to reflect nature itself.

Q&A with Arjen Lucassen

by | Oct 14, 2020

Arjen Lucassen welcomed us to his home via webcams and we had a lovely conversation with the dutch hippie about his new album as Ayreon: “Transitus”. Love, horror and betrayals instead of Sci-Fi, finding Tom Baker (legendary “Dr. Who”) as the narrator and Mike Mills taking over his heart… all this and more on this new Q&A here in The Progspace!
