Malcolm Galloway – Stare: "not one of those albums likely to find a mass audience. And that’s a shame. For the prog minded among us, there is much to geek out on." Read @TheProgAspect review... theprogressiveaspect.net/blo…
Lesoir – Tomorrow Is Not Today: @Lesoirmusic "...a vibrant and contemporary album with a crucial message for our time, and one of this year’s strongest and most impactful releases so far." Read @TheProgAspect review: theprogressiveaspect.net/blo…
Square Wild – Otherling: "...clearly love what they do, and their enthusiasm seeps out of every song on Otherling, and it’s infectious. I’d recommend this album to anyone." Read @TheProgAspect review: theprogressiveaspect.net/blo…

PRR – Terrifying Angels: @PRR_official | @insideouteu | @InsideOutUSA "...a glorious synthesis of the beautiful and the sinister, the melodic and the rhythmic, in what should be regarded as one of the best albums of 2026." Read @TheProgAspect review: theprogressiveaspect.net/blo…
Eivør – Tungl: "A melodic, atmospheric and emotionally charged album which balances moments of pure beauty with an undercurrent of tension and menace. A difficult combination to achieve, yet Eivør makes it sound effortless." Read @TheProgAspect review... theprogressiveaspect.net/blo…
Brand X – Theory Of Nothing: @The_Band_BrandX | @moonjune "I suggest you dive in. They’ve made some terrific music over the years, and Theory of Nothing sits well alongside their classic live album Livestock." Read @TheProgAspect review... theprogressiveaspect.net/blo…
