Glass Hammer - On to Evermore: The Story of Arianna and the Sculptor

Glass Hammer - On to Evermore: The Story of Arianna and the Sculptor

Gong - You Remixed & Hawkwind - Future Reconstructions

Cover art

It's a prog chill-out! Phew! I made it. The disc is over! God be praised! What we have here is a techno / ambient version of Gong's masterpiece, You. 16 different "bands"...

Grobschnitt - Die Grobschnitt Story 1

Cover art

The ability to speak German would be a definite advantage with this one, for the liner notes are all in this language. Grobschnitt, a major player in the 70s German prog scene, have released what...

Guru Guru - Space Ship (The Best of Part 1)

Cover art

Take a trip, back in time. My first impression of this 70s relic is "Sounds a lot like Hendrix," then you hear a bit more weirdness. I suppose these guys picked up where Jimi left off....

Hawkwind - Love in Space

Cover art

A live album from the Alien 4 tour, featuring Dave, Alan, Richard. and Ron Tree. Judging from the photos in this neat little package, the tour props were pretty good. A Terminator...

Hawkwind - The 1999 Party

Cover art

Oh the things you find when you clean house. Whilst rummaging through the EMI closets, these tapes we uncovered. So Mr. Hawkwind, Dave Brock, and engineer Paul Cobbold sat down and went through...

Hoahio - Happy Mail

Cover art

Have you ever heard Japanese cult band After Dinner? Not another (neo-)prog oriented band from Japan, I reassure you, but one of the most simply beautiful melodic RIO and avant-garde groups from...

Holger Czukay - Moving Pictures

Cover art

If Holger Czukay continues to bring forth projects of the caliber achieved here, he will continue to keep my attention. For Moving Pictures is much more delicate on the sensitive ear than...

Holy River Family Band - Welcome to Riverhouse

Höyry-Kone - Huono Parturi

Cover art

Being no expert on Scandinavian bands certainly left me unprepared for what was in store on this release by Höyry-Kone, with their strange (and perhaps unprecedented) juxtaposition of metallic...

Höyry-Kone - Huono Parturi

Cover art

First of all, you've got to hand it to Höyry-Kone, they are really setting standards for truly original music these days. When you try to review an album and come to a loss of words on how...

Idiot Flesh - Fancy

Cover art

Sadly this will probably be the band’s swansong, as they played their final concert on March 13, 1998 (yes, Friday the 13th) in San Francisco. But if all one ever knows of this band is their...

Jan Akkerman - 10,000 Clowns on a Rainy Day

Cover art

Word is out that Thijs Van Leer has reformed golden age prog band Focus with a flashy new lead guitarist. Clearly, where would Focus be without original shredmeister Jan Akkerman, who earned 70s AM...

Jeff Greinke - Cities in Fog

Cover art

Albums this peripheral and ambient are rather rare in my opinion. Roach and Rich have both done albums in this vein, the latter in his early days, and of course Brian Eno did his pioneering work in...

King Crimson - The Night Watch

Cover art

What makes the world's most anal guitarist fixate about a live moment in a band's stellar history? Is it that he looks upon the past to link a discussion with the present or is it a fond...
