I listened to the Grails album and found it to be a bit boring, to be honest.
My favourite of the few 2017 albums I've checked so far is Noveller - A Pink Sunset for No One. A very easy listen.

Just got my hands on Chalice Hymnal myself and I agree with you; very beautiful album verging on the serene. I rather dig their newly found electronic palette - a thing I believe got implemented after 2014s Watter collab. Quite a few similarities between the two.

Oh and thanks for the heads up on the coming Zu album Audun!

Thanks for the tip, did not know about this. Interesting to see side-long pieces this time rather than their usual short compositions.

I saw them live when Gabe Serbian was on drums and they kicked unfeasible amounts of arse. Indeed they were all about that! I'd take it from the House of Mythology blurb that the approach here is gonna have considerably more light and shade.

This is really excellent! Have you considered a CD or vinyl release?

Thanks a lot! Yes, it will be released on CD, and Panorama will release a 2LP compilation of the three first tapes.

Haha! Wow, you remember THAT video? Impressive... It was ten years ago this spring, actually. Kind of the birth of Jordsjø...

Digging the new Damn Fine Coffee album quite a bit.  Need to listen through a few more times, however.

Don't know if it counts for here (certainly prog-related), but I picked up the new Blackfield V today. A very enjoyable listen. Blackfield work best as a duo, and it's good to see them back that way for now at least.

Really excited at the news of a confirmed release date for BBT's Grimspound.

I preordered Ayreon- The Source    The grapevine reports,  it's more guitar driven then past Ayreon albums.   I adore the Ayreon formula, however I'd like to see Ayreon progress beyond Arjen's comfort zone.

I'm looking forward to Barock Project's new album.    After the success of Skyline, BP aggressively shifted into overdrive, hightailing toward the checkered flag.    So, the lead singer bowed out, deciding to pursue other goals.  
"Tiger Moth Tales" composer, lead singer, and multi-instrumentalist Pete Jones ( toured recently with Camel), co-wrote 3 songs and sings lead on two.  Meanwhile  keyboardist Luca Zabbini , pianist, and composer adds lead singer to his resume.  

Can Steven Wilson keep the streak alive? I'm guessing he'll release his new album around Oct-Nov.

For several years in a row, an Italian band I've never heard of has seduced me.  Something's in the water besides gondolas.   It seems Italian bands are benefiting from record companies who aggressively promote, distribute, and support the local talent.   I'd like to see a resident RPI expert wax prosaically on the new Italian Wave.     

PS- Crossing my fingers 2017 will  be the year Phideaux releases Infernal.
