I have heard a few Perfect Circle songs that got me somewhat interested, and then last weekend that I visited the CD's shop, they happened to have it on, so I heard a bit more of it. Maybe it's not the proggiest thing around, but it sounded very nice, I shall be getting it. It seems to be doing well in sales too, actually (though I would have to check that out).

PinioL & elephant9 will be way up my list along with Aquaserge, Sonar, Gogo Penguin & probably Nik Bartsch Ronin.

Forgot about Sonar. Definitely their best one...should be on my list come years end.

I am most definitely looking forward to some new Coheed and Cambria and some new Tool. I heard that the new Coheed album is supposed to go back to their older stuff (the good-old heavy crossover prog), which I'm super stoked for.
I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Check out my music on my bandcamp!

Kayak-Seventeen
their best for 19 years although it's still only 3-4 stars. Pretty solid. I like Galahad's latest album as well.
At the moment I've bought 5 releases for this year and am struggling to remember the other 3!

Not in the database here but may be of interest to some here, Nik Bartsch Ronin release Awase tomorrow.  I'm seeing them play in Boston on Saturday.

Another CA? I'll admit I was disappointed with last years - not because it wasn't good, but because I already had pretty much all the songs from subscribing to their website, and didn't pay enough attention to realise that before I bought it. XD

I gave up on the C-A subscription, I liked the music but it just didn't feel like an album. I wasn't connecting with it as much as I do with their albums if that makes sense. I therefore only doubled up on a couple of tracks and liked the album.

I don't know if the second JLIN's album : Black Origami is from 2017 or 2018, but this is one of the best thing I've heard since a long time. Fantastic electro prog with raga rhythms. Love it

The new Cavern of Anti-Matter is pretty good, Hormone Lemonade, most noticeably if you're into old school motorik Krautrock.
Others? Hmmm I just got myself a country album that I really dig. Alright it is tinged with psychedelic and alternative vibes, but still.
I love surprising my brain with genres it previously hated to the max. Amen Dunes he's called!
Oh I also just got the new U.S. Girls album Unlimited Poem.

The only album I've got that's featured on PA is Fire's Hands. Damn fine record though.

One listen in and its an album of the year candidate, its a monster.


Just bought it. Going to be a tough one to knock off the top of my AOTY. I was sceptical at first. Poil just does so much on their own as a trio. But then I heard Ni for the first time.

I've only got one 2018 album so far, Kino's Radio Voltaire. But it's an absolute belter! Chock full of earworms!

It's certainly made a bigger impression on me than anything else I've got from this year.

Also, the new Aquaserge live album dropped through my letterbox this morning. Been a good couple of days for new music!
