I love Wobbler's debut Hinterland but found their subsequent release, Afterglow, rather disappointing. They are a must for fans of Transatlantic and Yes.

On a similar vein could I suggest the band Deluge Grander? Their debut, August In The Urals, is like a quirky homage to 70s Prog but with modern Prog sensibilities.

Here's "The Solitude Of Miranda" from that album:

Though the track isn't totally indicative of what they are about.

Funny, I love Afterglow. Will check out Deluge Grander!

Tony, finally got the 2 Deluge Grander albums. Fabulous stuff!

 

 

Great prog music store, Caerllysi Music, huge range, good prices, prompt delivery.

How does August In The Urals compare to The Form of the Good?

The new North Atlantic Oscillation album is on progstreaming.com. Its really good.

 

They also have the new album by the Canadian musician Rick Miller. Its pretty melancholic and mellow but still good. He has a bunch of albums that can be streamed for free/downloaded for $5 on Bandcamp.

After reading this review, it seems like the debut album by Riversea is going to be well worth some ear-time...

This sounds interesting. The cover art is amazing.

The new NAO album is excellent.

 

* why the f**k I mentioned North Atlantic Oscillation in this post, only I know. I does do have de brains for shit.

I managed to pull myself away from Clockwork Angels long enough to give a listen to the new Squackett CD. It is PROG followed by PROG with a lot of PROG mixed in. If you ever thought someone from Yes should get together with someone from Genesis and make a PROG album then this is the one for you. I only gave it one listen so far, but it beats the living shite out of the efforts Hackett made with Howe in the 1980s. Recommended for lovers of PROG everywhere.

It is a pretty good CD indeed!

The new Echolyn album is excellent. Its a double album but its only a little over an hour long. I don't have all their albums yet but supposedly this is their best yet.

 

Also, the new District 97 album, Trouble With Machines, is awesome. I don't think its on sale yet though (got it from their label at nearfest). Great new prog with catchy (in a good way) female vocals.

 

And the new Anglagard album is a masterpiece, as expected. So far its in my top 3 2012 albums.

Hey ColdFireYYZ... is there still plenty of cello on the new District 97 album? That one of the things that I loved about "Hybrid Child".

I think the cellist left, I think. Not sure was she replaced. Hybrid Child was excellent.

 

Must order the new one.

The cellist left but she made a guest appearance on one track. I forgot what song it is but I think it's Read Your Mind. She wasn't replaced.

 

Edit: Listening to the album now and Read Your Mind is the track she played on.

Peolpe say stuff like..oh I haven't listened to The Wall in years ..hell I haven't listened to Hemispheres in years laugh.gif ... always wanting something new to hear.

Yesterday my copy of "P'dice" by Paul Cusick was delivered & it's a most excellent slice of proggy goodness. In fact even though I've only lived with this album for around 30 hours I think that it's the best prog album that I've bought this year (and it's been a very good year for the genre).

Gavin plays on this record, yes? I'm listening to it now, I like it.

I've been listening to Headspace recently. The album "I Am Anonymous" features Rick Wakeman's son Adam. Not sure what to make of it myself but it would probably appeal to fans of Queensryche/Dream Theater.

Trouble With Machines is streaming on AOL for free right now. The official release date is tomorrow so if anyone's interested you can listen before you buy.
