My first memory goes back in the 60's! A beautiful book illustrated in black and white about the mysterious King Arthur… For a child this character is the best! As all the boys at the same age, I dreamed to be this Child King that can brandish Excalibur. The girls are much more stupid! What an idea wanting to be a princess in love with two guys on the same time, ah la la it is really a girl thing! (Laughs)
MARTIN BARRE FROM JETHRO TULL: My middle name is Lancelot so as a school child I was very familiar with King Arthur legend and I knew a lot about his story, and I 've read it in the past but I haven't heard about it since. It's a very strong story, very present with its castle, its domain in north Devon supposedly.

For the last decade Oedipus has been one of LA s best kept secrets, pounding out their brand of Progressive modern Rock to the adoring few who had discovered them. Amazing what a few hit singles can do, as the band has now exploded onto the Global music scene, seemingly overnight, with 4 #1 rock singles in Poland alone, radio rotation in over 30 countries,

IZZ’s new studio album, Crush of Night serves as Part 2 of a 3-part series of thematic albums that began with The Darkened Room (TDR) in 2009. Crush of Night delivers on all fronts by creating a sound and passion that belong to IZZ alone.

VESPERO got together as a quartet (Arkady Fedotov - vocals, bass, flute, synths; Valentin Rulev - violin, synths; Ivan Fedotov - drums, percussion; Alexander Kuzovlev - guitar, bass, synths) in Astrakhan (south of Russia) 2003 on the common interest in playing psychedelic music. Later Natalya Tjurina (vocals) joined, and the band moved into more progressive rock-related areas. As their Moscow fellows KAFTAN SMEKHA, VESPERO are deeply influenced by avant theatre and experimental poetry. Since the very first demos their sound has been influenced by GONG, early FLOYD, FAUST and related bands from that era. Highly recommended for all fans of these (and beyond!). More»


This is Citizen Cain's sixth and most powerful release yet, and their first album for over 10 years. Citizen Cain originate from Scotland, and feature Stewart Bell (keyboards/drums), Cyrus (bass/lead vocals) and Phil Allen (guitars/backing vocals). Cyrus’s vocals will always be reminiscent of Peter Gabriel, yet the band sound fresh and original on today's prog scene, going to places in their music that few band's can. Yes, there are the occasional Genesis references, but Skies Darken pushes the boundaries further than on any other release, maintaining melodies throughout. It's a dark album that draws you in, and holds you there…highly recommended!

SOUTHERN CROSS' second studio album 'Down Below' was released on June 2009. This album indicated this more progressive approach for the band. It was praised by the critics as the band established itself in the prog-metal fanbase all around the World. The album release has been followed by many gigs for the band in Canada.
