Recording and Mixing Engineer: Jason Reed
Mastering: Carl Saff, Saff Mastering
Photography: Lisa Jo Goldman
Cover art: Sasha Pyle, levl9design

Description/Reviews:
Searing, atmospheric and hypnotic, Love Unfold The Sun deftly summons free jazz, Middle Eastern and hard rock elements as the canvas for sparkling telepathic interplay and muscular grooves. 
“Explode Yourself” is a raucous, joyous celebration of exploding yourself with and for the love of life. "Explode Yourself" is the group's first studio release, offering new tracks as well as a more detailed, concise treatment of previous live material, while still maintaining their trademark spontaneity and sensitivity. 
The vibe is set right away with The Bite That Feeds, which encapsulates much of what Love Unfold The Sun does - hard rock, Middle Eastern elements, group interplay, dynamic shifts – all in one concise punch, taking no quarter right out of the gate and going from there. 
The album moves straight into Delirium, a hard blues-y feel with a Middle Eastern overlay and a bit of Sabbath–esque menace in the turnaround. A few tunes later we encounter the 2010 composition Rising, inspired by and dedicated to the many thousands creating the winds of change at the time known as the Arab Spring. 
The final track on Explode Yourself is Saba, a loose piece around the Saba Zamzam maqam. A slow and sexy, funky groove with a wide range of dynamics and spaces, the piece is often Love Unfold The Sun’s encore piece – and thus a natural way to close the journey of this veteran band’s long awaited debut studio album.

Description/Reviews:
What a marvelous treat this epic new offering by Norwegian hard rock/doom metal masters Hex A.D. is! Huge chords, thunderous drums, earth-shattering riffs, heartfelt vocals, heaps of melancholy atmospheres, and that warm, analogue sound that is simply irresistible – this charismatic and brilliantly conceived opus simply ticks all the boxes for me. With its psychedelic flavors and progressive touches, Delightful Sharp Edges is so much more than a hard rock, heavy metal or doom metal output; it is original and something different to everything else that is out there.

Produced by Initial Mass and Ron Sandoval 
Recorded and mixed by Ron Sandoval at Rev Studios
Mastering by Andrew Alekel

Description/Reviews:
Los Angeles-based heavy prog rock trio Initial Mass release their new album Alluvium with the Italian post-progressive label Luminol Records. 
The band’s fourth LP consists of 13 songs that explore strikingly diverse sonic territories across an evolving conceptual soundscape. Simply put, this is Initial Mass doing what they do best. The follow-up to 2019’s anthemic alt-rocker, Bending Light, manifests as some of the most intricate, calculated and cohesive compositions from the group thus far. 
Alluvium is a concept album, portraying the life of one individual as a metaphor for the rise and fall of humankind. The main character starts his journey, young and ambitious, excited for his chance to make his mark. Quickly, he becomes more intent on his desire to take what he wants from the world. As he grows more powerful, he refutes the warnings of nature’s conscience. Leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, he finds himself isolated in world that can no longer sustain life.

Description/Reviews:
“Spectra” is a bit like a 1970’s King Crimson album, but without any ethereal soliloquies and certainly with a more significant hard rock/metal influence. It is a cauldron of hard rock, jazz, metal, classical, 80’s rock, 70’s rock, and probably a few other things.

Description/Reviews:
This collection of fresh tracks allows the listener to emerge in a brand new realm soaked in mystery and retro-rock atmosphere - key features of HÄLLAS’ fantasy and sci-fi driven auditory aesthetic. The album starts with synthesizer-laden “Birth Into Darkness”, with an incredibly clever topline featuring the unique vocals of singer and bassist Tommy Alexandersson. The musical journey continues with the mystical single “Earl’s Theme”, embellished by choral voices, and proceeds with exceptional “Elusion’s Gate” - a piece that, by giving space to the guitar lines of Alexander Moraitis and Marcus Petersson, underlines the overall epic and mysterious atmosphere of the album. Comprised of eight bold opuses, Isle Of Wisdom is a deft new step in the noteworthy sonic trajectory of HÄLLAS, cementing them as a band to watch!

Make a balanced mixture of 70s progressive, the most visceral hard rock vibes, psychedelia and krautrock. Pick tons of old organs, synthesizers and electric pianos and melt them in a boiling cauldron of valve amplifiers, wood trunks carved by Sirs Ludwig and Rickenbacker and dusty electric devices fantasized by engineers on acid. Close your eyes, write the secret word in a card and listen to the G.O.L.E.M as it gives new life to the attitude and magic of that long-gone era.

Description/Reviews:
Kalle Wallner's first proper solo album is a mainly instrumental affair, combining energetic hard rock with atmospheric laden progressive rock, and with a liberal amount of Floydian moods and atmospheres adding flavor to many of the songs. Those who know and appreciate the material released by Blind Ego as well as RPWL will find quite a lot of material that will be of interest and that will be familiar sounding. More guitar driven and guitar dominated though, especially compared to the latter, and an interest in instrumental music will be needed to get the most out of this album. But, at least for now, I'd send fans of Blind Ego and RPWL to this album prior to anyone else.

Description/Reviews
It is an accessible variety of the style the band have opted to go for here, with frequent shifts into hard progressive rock and occasional lapses closer to progressive metal as well, but with plenty of space and room given over to more careful, atmospheric laden and even pastoral passages along the way. Even with multiple alterations of pace, intensity and arrangements in a song the compositions stay accessible and uphold an easy to listen to mode of delivery throughout. An album to seek out by those who tend to be engaged by progressive rock that by and large is more accessible in nature, and who knows how to treasure a band that also venture into hard progressive rock territories.
