Though they're named after another even more obscure genre of music that involves piano roll compositions with millions and even billions of notes until the sheet music is literally black from it, this band's chaos is a little bit more controlled. But only just. With a sound that's reminiscent of King Crimson's "Red" era, albeit if Adrian Belew was...
Also combining indie and post-rock textures into their sound, BCNR has been sweeping the prog scene with their latest album, "Ants From Up There", a sprawling, pastoral record that bucks the usual trend of busy and frenetic instrumentation with a more measured, calm approach that sees the songs build up. Think if Godspeed You! Black Emperor had voc...
Hailing from the Great White North, this Canadian duo (featuring a singing drummer and a guitarist who plays Taurus bass pedals) has been making waves as the country's answer to bands like Greta Van Fleet. However, unlike their Michigander contemporaries, Crown Lands has not been shy about adding a lot of progressive influence into their sound, wit...
Though they're a bit older than some of the bands here (forming in 2011), they wouldn't release their debut album, "Excerpts From a Future Past", until 2018.

While they're signed to one of the prog world's biggest record labels, InsideOut Records (current home of Dream Theater), OU hails from one of the less likely places you're going to see progressive metal come from: Beijing, China. One of the first Chinese artists to be signed to a major western record label, the band's influences come from artists ...

Apr 1, 2022 · 29 March, 2022 | Bormsen Records. Cartoon Theory ’s new album “Feel” is a kind of ‘best of both worlds’ affair: 4 songs, 4 remixes. Ok, truth be told, also the four ‘original’ songs contain quite a bit of electronics to be fair, but that’s nothing new in the Cartoon Theory world. Morgan Thomaso is responsible for the shredding ...
Oct 8, 2014 · Bill Evans, Flying Colors’ executive producer, on managing a supergroup. It was Evans’ intention to do “something different” that led to the formation of Flying Colors.
