Five, count them, five excellent reviews of the new album by Zopp on the main page. All done well, and on a group that I've never even heard of. I must get out more. Cheers.

I have been enjoying Warthur's APP reviews lately, but these all fade into insignificance for his review of the new 5 CD Genesis box (with a very helpful explanation of the vinyl release issue). It is extremely difficult to write anything new and fresh about an act who have been releasing material since 1969, but this review does it.
A wonderful read at http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=2897550

Thought the review by Owen D for the new Jethro Tull was really well done and a good sell. Honestly, I know others wont agree, but I'm actually kinda excited for the new record. I've thought the singles have been increasingly good with each release, and I'm happy we live in a space where Jethro Tull is releasing records into the 2020s. Def sounding more energized than they have in a long time, and comparatively I find the new material a lot more compelling than the new Yes releases by comparrison.

Nice to see Mr. BrufordFreak reviewing some prog folk, a genre always close to my heart. Keep up the good work Drew!

Thank you, Gentlemen! Prog Folk is definitely one of my three favorite subs but I recently realized that I've spent very little energy focusing on the old Classic Era albums (many of which I never knew until recently). It's definitely a labor of LOVE!

A couple of reviews of well known albums caught my eye this week. Posted by BBKron on 17th May, he reviewed The Yes Album and Wish You Were Here. Two of my favourite albums and I have to say I totally agree with his assertion that they are better than Fragile and Dark Side respectively. In particular I've never understood the love for Fragile, it just seems so inconsistent. TYA on the other hand is perfect despite the absence of Rick Wakeman.

A round of applause for Magog2112's excellent reviews for Genesis and Marillion's albums.

Paul, I love your reviews. But please, stop making those cheesy one liners. xD They're so distracting! :p

^Without the cheese it wouldn't be Paul. Most music I like is usually rated two or three stars by Paul, but I don't want him to change anything.
Rock on, Paul. ![]() |

A very detailed and enjoyable review from Tszirmay on the new Lifesigns live album! Well done, mate. I need to scout the mainpage a lot more in future.

Four excellent reviews on the Harmony Codex, with Artgentinfolico being the most detailed, are much appreciated. This is one Steven Wilson album I'll gladly skip. Thanks to all.

I haven't been around these parts in a awhile but it was nice to see some good neo-prog reviews from magog2112, Warthur and VianaProghead on their Echolyn, Porcupine Tree and Pendragon reviews. Really nice!

Thanks, Magog2112 for the excellent review of Echolyn's "I Heard You Listening". A very underappreciated release.

Thanks, Steve. It was nice to discover an artist that inspired me to write something. Thinking about doing some more.

It's good to see Ken L's reviews of the late Paul Brett's work. He's one of the most unsung acoustic guitar geniuses of his era.

http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=2992700 The amount of research done for these reviews is quite impressive. Especially, since ther reviewer isn't Polish. |
