This album is now in our Archives and runs for a reasonable price.

Full of very modern-sounding groups. All except one (AmAndA) sing in English and are all full-blown progressive.

My review of the record is comming up!

Are not included from contractual reasons

Ken's Novel (on Musea records)

XXX (on Labrad'or records)

-------------
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

.. With a album like this, it's always difficult convincing bands to participate... Even with the help of both Prog-Nose and Progrésiste (who did a preselection of the bands in order to assure the musical quality), some people are afraid to jump in on such a project.

But bands that are on a label have even less chances because they're tied both from hands : They want to do it, but sometimes the label does not even know where Belgium lies ...;(

All bands on this album are independant bands, however both Beyond The Labyrinth and AmAndA are on their own label, with Beyond The Labyrinth "Signs" even being on distribution through Bertus/Rock Inc.
