"It has been said that jazz is a voracious musical language, eating all kinds of other music to serve its hybrid nature as a mix of European and...

"Tired of hearing music designed for teenagers? Bored with all that revisionist jazz and self-indulgent art-noise? Here's something completely unexpected, from veterans of Motor Totemist Guild, Thinking Plague, 5UU's, and Giant Ant Farm. The result of this detour from their usual avant-gardism is a splendid recording, made mostly live in a barn in the south of France, of a 21st Century song-cycle representing a tongue-in-cheek manifesto for middle age in crisis. But this is not a collection of songs so....

"French progressive rock collective Nine Skies have been weaving their rock, jazz, classical and progressive influences for several years now – combining their acoustic instrumentation with deep, poignant and poetic lyrics. Their well-received 2017 debut Return Home looked at a range of different characters from modern city life. Their second album, Sweetheart Grips, released in late 2019, was a dense, complex and often heart-breaking exploration of the experience of a young soldier in the Second World...

“This album spotlights a surprising chapter of Jeff Buckley's creativity in tandem with acclaimed guitarist and songwriter Gary Lucas. Circa 1991-92, during an intense 10 months period, Jeff and Gary wrote 12 songs for Gary's band "Gods and Monsters" which featured Jeff as lead singer.
They all began with Gary composing solo guitar instrumentals, complete with the riffs and harmonic structure, to which Jeff added a vocal melody and lyrics. After their packed debut concert in St. Ann's Church...

"A new re-mastered and expanded edition of the legendary album Black Flower, recorded by the UK band Nirvana in 1969.
Black Flower was the final album under the Nirvana name to feature the duo of Patrick Campbell Lyons and Alex Spyropoulos, who had recorded two classic albums for Island Records in 1967 and 1968 (The Story of Simon Simopath and All of Us). Black Flower was begun with the intention of being Nirvana’s third album release for Island, but Island founder Chris Blackwell declined to release..

(UK) Trio Music (1998). W/ John Wolf Brennan.

Really fascinating Japanese trio of guitar, bass & drums who stick together noise, repetition, no-wave, electronica, motorik, dance-music, and sound in a way that no one else does. You won't believe that they aren't an 'electronic' group...

A musical project that recovers and/or is inspired by Greek songs from Southern Italy, where even today you can find echoes of the Hellenic culture that colonized the area 3,000 years ago. Intense and melismatic voices are joined by instruments both old..

The group's 3rd album, from 1980. This is pre the arrival of R.J. Stips, so that immediately dilutes some of the appeal for many folks reading this. Having said that, this is still very good, very smart & clever pop music of its era. Conditionally...

The debut album by a NJ band that is one of those interesting new bands that performs progressive rock in a modern way.

As my pal Ken said, they take the sound of the 70s, wipe the dirt off and polish and present it in a way that sounds fresh and not musty.

The most obvious comparison is to Beardfish, who also present a 70s kinda sound in a not 70s kinda way. A REALLY very good debut.

This is the first release by this 'low end' saxophone trio from Toulouse, France. Consisting of composer Marc Démereau on baritone sax and Marc Maffiolo and Florian Nastorg on bass saxes (!), this is not a jazz or improvised music release; it really has more in common with rehearsal intensive avant-rock music, ala, say "Blast" while still allowing some room for solos.
Fairly indescribable beyond what I've said above; with these three POWERFUL low-end saxes pushing out the riffs, it rocks a lot more...

Excellent, very composerly UK jazz pianist meets up with the great US rhythm section of Tom Rainey and Drew Gress + guitarist Phil Robson. Recommended!

“Nodens Ictus are a British electronic music project formed by Ed Wynne and Joie Hinton in 1986 as an ethereal offshoot of UK psychedelic rock band Ozric Tentacles. The Cozmic Key was the first Nodens album for 17 years when self-released in December 2017.
With various line-ups over the years, the band have played live semi-frequently since the late '80's often supporting Ozric shows.
Ed Wynne is, without doubt, a gifted instrumentalist, a visionary, a prodigal symphonist and one of the UK's...

This is the offshoot of the goth/death metal group Embyrium, who faded out in 2002. The two guys behind Embyrium founded symphonic rock project shortly after and released their first in 2005 with this one following in 2006. It's solidly symphonic rock...

This is the offshoot of the goth/death metal group Embyrium, who faded out in 2002. The two guys behind Embyrium founded symphonic rock project shortly after and released this in 2005. It's solidly symphonic rock, but you can hear very modern overtones...

"With roots in internationally highly acclaimed bands like KULTIVATOR and UR KAOS, Ingemo Rylander and Johan Hedren invites you to a dreamy journey for the open minded. A rocking groove in the bottom with swirling rhythmes from a rich melodic musical...

"This is a record thats nothing like typical (space) prog, but still cant be named anything else (however, maybe by adding words like, space prog pop rock or space prog dance rock). Although it sounds nothing like Steven Wilsons normal band Porcupine Tree, youll still find these typical things in the musics composition and the way it is played. Its so typically Steven Wilson. This is a good thing mind you!... This album is absolutely a must for anyone who likes Porcupine Tree, Pink Floyd and/or Archive."...

The 2nd release by this LA-based duo. Using female voice, clarinets, strings, keyboards, bass & drums they combine a large number of influences (art rock, Art Bears, art-song, electronics) into their own blend. [Victo]
