Description/Reviews:

Here we get tight, uptempo and intricate riff and rhythm constellations alternating with gentler, flowing and strictly melodic movements. Heavier, blues-flavored arrangements appear on the concluding 'Crimson Sunset', and delicate interludes of various kinds and straight forward passages with more of a hard rock alignment are just as numerous as more quirky passages and the occasional blazing metal run. Few of the songs on this album stick to one specific expression, most of them alternates between many. The vocals are powerful when needed, emotional when appropriate and careful in display elsewhere. With a high quality mix and production throughout. Whether this is an album that can be defined inside of the progressive metal tradition will be a subjective opinion, but I'm fairly certain that many fans of more contemporary progressive metal in particular may well find this album to be an interesting one.

Mastered by Steve Kitch

Description/Reviews:

Acoustic guitar sits at the centre of the record, often captured in raw, first-take performances recorded directly in hotel rooms before being carefully integrated with studio recordings. This tension between fragility and control defines the album’s sound. Tracks such as “Concepción,” “Meet Me On The Downs,” and the title piece were conceived in specific places - Chile, Hamburg, Oberhausen - each location leaving a subtle imprint on the music. Parks, harbours, and anonymous rooms become recurring settings where past and present coexist, intersected by fleeting moments of clarity amongst the disorder.

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.

LUFEH is a progressive rock/metal band blending technical precision with emotional depth and genre‑bending influences. "Overwhelmed" marks a major creative leap for the band. While their debut album leaned heavily into technical instrumental work, this sophomore record places a strong emphasis on memorable vocal melodies, layered harmonies, and sing‑along choruses, all while preserving the band’s trademark complexity.

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.
