Description/Reviews:

The album moves between odd-meter grooves, tight counterpoint, and melodic hooks that sneak in through the side door. Besides 11 original compositions, two movements from Bach’s Concerto for Violin and Oboe (BWV1060) re-imagined through Garone’s rhythmic lens, along with a refreshed take on Robert Fripp’s “Erudite Eyes”.

Description/Reviews:

The Silent Architect is the album that feels like everything TERAMAZE does best all in one place. It strikes the perfect balance between big progressive epics, beautiful and emotional ballads, and hard-hitting singles that land with larger than life impact.

The songs flow naturally, shifting between powerful moments and quieter reflections without ever losing that signature TERAMAZE feel. It’s technical when it needs to be, melodic when it matters most, and always driven by strong and decisive songwriting.

More than anything, this album feels honest and fully realised, like the band leaning completely into who they are. The result is the most TERAMAZE-sounding record we’ve ever made.

Dynamic, emotional, heavy, and memorable from start to finish.

Description/Reviews:

Eight tracks of innovative prog form a loose concept album exploring the wild and unpredictable nature of water alongside the absurdity of the human spirit. We follow the waterways of the river as it makes its way down the mountainsides of a lost mysterious island in the middle of the ocean.

With unusual instrumentation (water percussion and glass bottles) and ambitious arrangements (Upstream and Downstream being the reverse of one another), Rob pushes the limits of his imagination in an attempt to achieve something greater than the sum of its parts.

Description/Reviews:

FRACTAL GUITAR 4 is many things: instrumental music that fearlessly and uncomprimisingly explores the sonic and expressive potential of the modern electric guitar combined with digital effects, music that - thanks to drummer Yogev Gabay - is a masterclass in polyrhythmic drumming, music that is as precise as a Swiss watch, but that can also be free, wild and expressive. But, ultimately, it captures a passionate and urgent ‚Search for the Miraculous,‘ a search for timeless music that reflects the tragic contradictions of the human condition in its general and current state, where there is light as well as darkness, hope as well as despair, truth as well as illusion.

Frank Lewis: live sound, recording engineer, guitar amps, circuit wizard

Description/Reviews:

It’s a sixtrack record that pushes the band into a more powerful, riff-driven register while preserving their signature analogue warmth and modern clarity. 

Where Fabric of Time played as a slow-burning homage to 1970s symphonic rock with a contemporary touch, Veil on Life feels current and assertive. The lyrics address memory, identity and time, each in their own way. For example, Hallway builds up a meditative distance that nudges the listener into relaxation, whilst Waters takes the listener on an evolutionary journey. Brisé Volé encourages self-scrutiny, whereas Clueless is restless and yearning, and Cities explores urban longing. Instrumentally the band still leans on Mellotron, Therevox and vintage synths. But this recording is driven by energetic electric guitars and shimmering 12-string acoustics, all backed by a warm 70s-style bass and firm rhythms that add texture and weight while preserving the band’s atmospheric songcraft.

Fans of 35 Tapes restrained cinematic prog will recognise the band’s typical warm, spacious mixes, while being introduced to new forceful soundscapes. Veil on Life balances the band’s tasteful restraint with boosted emotional confidence, delivered with discipline rather than excess.

Description/Reviews:

Disc One is new songs. The second disc is a collection of somewhat-obscure rock covers from the late 60s-early 70s. 

Blending elements of progressive rock, fusion, cartoon music, and Rock-in-Opposition, the music of French TV can be simultaneously hilarious and highly challenging, making it one of the most original American prog rock outfits and also one of the longest lived, having created 16 albums as well as having toured Europe and the US, along with many major festivals since their formation in 1983.
