  • Lots of changes in the Mangala Vallis camp with this new release.  Bernardo Lanzetti is out, replaced by the great Rob Tiranti aka Rob Tyrant.  Many of you know Rob from his work in the metal world with Labyrinth but he has alway worked with New Trolls so he knows how to dial it back.  Great, great set of pipes.  The music has changed a bit too.  Its not as overtly retro although at times the keyboard sounds harken back to the 70s.  Definitely more of a contemporary neo feel.  Its a concept album about a hacker who infects the world with a virus that will destroy all the digital files on the planet.  Good times!

  • Finally! First official CD release of the band's debut for Charisma Records. Originally released in 1975 the lineup featured Dave Brock, Robert Calvert, Nik Turner, Simon House, Simon King, Alan Powell, and Paul Rudolph. The album features "Steppenwolf" - one of the band's signature tracks. This edition comes from Atomhenge - a new offshoot label from Esoteric Records. It gets the full Mark Powell treatment - extensive liner notes and photos, 24 bit mastering and 4 bonus tracks. Essential.

  • Third collaboration from Steven Wilson and Aviv Geffen. Mr. Geffen wrote all of the material except for one track. Musically speaking its a very different animal than Porcupine Tree. Its much more laid back with a heavy emphasis on orchestration. I'm reminded a bit of later Pink Floyd and also Roger Water's solo works. Not a lot of pyrotechnics and really not much in the way of heaviness. Its almost as if Mr. Wilson has taken a supporting role as opposed to equal stature to Mr. Geffen. If you are looking for Porcupine Tree's quasi psychedelic metal look elsewhere. Blackfield presents you with (well recorded) art rock that targets your emotions rather than your thought process.

  • Remastered edition of the band's classic 4th album with two bonus tracks.  Its a concept album that literally defined classical rock.  Sure its pop oriented but the overarching progressive elements are prominent through out.  Highly recommended and at 5 bucks a steal.

  • Gorgeous doomy Floydian metal. Super jewelbox reissue.

  • Chronolyse was the second solo album from Heldon mastermind Richard Pinhas.  The recording featured his Fripp-like guitar stylings colliding with frightening sounds from the Moog synthesizer.  Its a spellbinding album that blends jarring industrial sounds with icy fluid guitar solos.

  • This was always a weird but charming album.  Recorded on a low rent budget in 1977, Akasha made this one and done album.  The album kicks off with a lengthy track loaded with 'tron.  The rest of the album is full on prog rock with lots of wacked out twists and turns.  It literally was recorded in the bomb shelter in the basement of a hotel so it has a real primitive sound but the music does shine through.

  • Remastered edition of the band's 1990 album comes with three bonus tracks.

  • I actually saw these guys on the British tour in support of this album in 1988. It was not my wife's favorite way to spend our honeymoon...but I digress. Excellent album finds them at their space rock finest: heavy and cosmic. Comes with 5 live bonus tracks and the typical great Esoteric remastering treatment.

  • Maxophone was one of the great "one and done" bands of the Italian scene.  They recorded one great album in 1977 (some of you may be familiar with their English language version) and then imploded like countless other prog bands did in 1977.Live In Tokyo features a reformed lineup recorded in Tokyo in 2013.  They do faithful recreations of the material from their eponymous album.

  • Digipak edition of Schulze's groundbreaking first album. After leaving Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel, Schulze set out on a solo career. Irrlicht was subtitled as "Quadraphonic Symphony for Orchestra and E-Machines". There are no synthesizers on this album. It is heavily influenced by Riley, Stockhausen and Ligeti. It is a combination of organs, electronic devices and orchestra (conducted by Schulze himself). This is not pretty music - it's droning and mesmerizing.

  • Remastered edition comes with 8 bonus tracks - 5 of which are previously unreleased. This was the last album the band recorded for Charisma and was released in 1978. Bob Calvert is fully in charge here and features some of the band's most potent material: "High Rise" , "Death Trap", and "Uncle Sam's On Mars". A killer...

  • Tenth studio album from the reconstituted verison of Focus led by Thijs van Leer.  Returning is original drummer Pierre van der Linden.  Bobby Jacobs handles bass and Menno Gootjes lead guitar.  X doesn't break any new ground.  This sounds just like classic Focus - van Leer concentrates on flute and Hammond organ and vocals.  Pure prog with strong jazzy overtones in places.  Neat cover art and logo courtesy of Roger Dean.  Highly recommended.

  • Arena return after a 6 year hiatus. New lineup includes new vocalist Paul Manzi, John Jowitt is back replacing Ian Salmon, Clive Nolan, John Mitchell, and Mick Pointer. Its a conceptual work focusing on the last hour of life and the following hour in the afterlife. High concept indeed!
