I'm usually leery of the 1 album 70's Italian bands "resurrecting" for a new album, but the new Maxophone is an early AOTY pick for me.

^Listening to now. Initially, I think I like. A lot of potential, repeated listens will be necessary.

Nau Aletheia (main band of Alvar Llusa-Damiani, current violinist of Bubu) put their first full length album out just a few days ago.


I'm liking what I'm hearing! Thumbs Up

Thanks for sharing that.

Though not prog in any way I still am very much looking forward to the new Fleet Foxes album. Not quite sure how they're ever going to top Helplessness Blues but I'm excited like a young wasp to hear them try.

I'd like a new Magma album please.
Maybe throw in some albums from The Future Kings Of England, NIL, Gadi Caplan, Ut Gret, elephant9 and Homunculus Res

I love the way banner ads work, advertising something I've just bought as if I'm going to rush out and buy a second one. It is rather nice the Thinking Plague ads though, kind of odd.

And its Hoping Against Hope....as the dozens of ad banners continue to tell me. Hopeless Hopes is a Martyr album. 

Someday I'll get something right the first time.

Thinking Plague

Just listened to Hopeless Hopes. They are very deep RIO so I still need several listens to form a complete opinion of it, but I have had a hard time with their albums after In This Life . That album was just so bloody amazing, they never really recaptured that magic.

Yeah, saw it on spotify recently and gave it a listen and it is surprisingly solid. I'll try to pick up a physical copy soon.
