Poligraf:
Proggers are invited to visit their revamped website (http://www.poligraf.net/), and sample their compositions in the music section: http://www.poligraf.net/en/music-index/

TCP or Temporal Chaos:
TCP's new album "The Way", is now available in the U.S., Deutschland, France, Canada, Japan, and the UK as well as others. Having received critical acclaim via round table reviews by Sea of Tranquility's progressive staff writers and other critics, many are seeing this album as the marriage of 70's old school art rock to modern day progrock. It was also just selected by Progressive Rock & Progressive Metal as band and album of the month, MAY 2009.

Totaling over 70 minutes, the 11 tracks that make up “The Way” showcase the band's dynamic blend of dark, melodic vocals with extended instrumental interplay as layers of soaring guitar and keyboard passages lock into a solid foundation of shifting and complex rhythms.

Also known as Temporal Chaos, TCP is a progressive project based on the collaborative spirits of Henry Tarnecky - vocals, Blake Tobias - keyboards, bass, and Jack Wright - guitars, drums. All three are multi-instrumentalist progressive songwriters, and are joined by a variety of special guests. Many will see modern day parallels to early Genesis, King Crimson, ELP and Kansas.

Please see their website for release notes, album reviews, songs and store listing at www.temporalchoas.com
