UPDATE 27th/28th DECEMBER 2006
The Fugitive, a track from One Day a New Horizon, took the #1 spot in the SoundClick Prog Rock charts yesterday and peaked at #2 in the Rock Chart before slipping back to #3 today (in a chart of approximately 117,500 tracks).  They were also listed at 22 in the 'hottest signed bands' - the only progressive rock band listed in this particular chart.

Review of One Day a New Horizon – 9/12/06

Protos are an English trio that were active over twenty years ago and who dedicated themselves to performing instrumental prog in the Oldfield vein. The disk in question is a re-issue on CD (with 2 extra bonus tracks) of a vinyl LP dated 1982. It had a reasonable response, mainly in Japan. It has now been re-issued by New Horizons Music in this new guise. Musically it is a very interesting album, showing the trio's love for psychedelic music and for the fantastical musical landscapes created by Mike Oldfield's eternal genius. The end result is a fresh, vibrant work that one can appreciate particularly, even after 20 years, because of the trio's highly skilled performance and the deep dream-like composing where the listener's soul can get lost amidst infinite spaces: brisk tracks slightly tinged with a touch of melancholia but never oppressive. The most apt comparison, in my opinion, is that listening to this album is like the majestic and harmonious take off of an eagle. Can't get tired of these tracks and you would play them forever just to keep travelling between clouds, turning here and there without pause. A good quality production and a cover (which personally reminds me of Genesis) complete this examination of a work that I recommend without reserve. Get it. You won't regret it. A timeless disk which makes you dream and travel between sweet, pleasing notes - if you love prog it can't be missing from your collection.
