>> New Øyvind Holm single out tomorrow…
His new album "After the Bees" has been released on 01/24.
Great record!
Diagonal – 2019 – Arc
https://diagonal.bandcamp.com/album/arc
New album by amazing British psychedelic-prog-rock band after 7 year hiatus.
Essential find for every prog fan.
Two new albums, that I'd like to share with you:
Rosalie Cunningham – S/T: https://smarturl.it/RosalieCunningham
Debut album of ex-singer/songwriter/guitarist of great retro-hard/psychedelic-rock band Purson.
iamthemorning – The Bell: https://iamthemorning.lnk.to/TheBell
New album of amazing prog/chamber-pop duo from Saint Petersburg.
Great new album, although to me their greatest (so far) is "Different Stars".
For those, who don't have Spotify in their country: https://sugarfoot1.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-clearing.
Also very nice review from Sugarfoot's #1 fan in USA : https://nervesalad.blogspot.com/2019/06/sugarfoot-in-clearing.html
Thank you for photos, Thor Egil.
"2019 Progressive Music Awards": https://www.loudersound.com/features/vote-now-in-the-2019-progressive-music-awards.
Only one nomination this time – in "Best International Band/Artist" category .
Nothing great in "Album of the Year" imho.
Ill Wicker – Darkling Woods (Live Session): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1Gq5J5qkpQ
I'm not sure, if these guys are weird enough, but their 2nd album is superb psychedelic folk, imho.
Ill Wicker – Untamed
https://thesignrecords.bandcamp.com/album/ill-wicker-untamed
Vespero (Astrakhan, Russia) – Hollow Moon (2018)
Listen: https://music.vespero.ru/album/hollow-moon
Reviews: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=3241
Rule #1 is broken again, sorry (should we start a new thread called "Old music" ?), but I couldn't resist the temptation to mention these guys here – amazing instrumental space/psychedelic/prog/experimental/etc.-rock band!
Wow again! Motorpsycho should ask Punj to write a part of liner notes for (hopefully coming) "Trust Us" boxset .
Thank you, guys!
@pfnuesel, I saw them twice in Kyiv (in 2013 and 2015) – they are awesome!
In 2015 band played "Curse of the Ninth" from this album, but I prefer studio version, that has a lot of additional instrumentation – guys can't afford to travel with all musicians, who played grand piano, reeds and other stuff on it .
Usually there are 4 or 5 players (1 or 2 guitars, drums, bass & keyboards).
Unfortunately the lineup is very unstable.
As I said in the first post, they are currently on tour (Switzerland, France, Netherlands, Germany), so perhaps you'll be able to check them, if you live close enough to one of venues (see full list of dates/places on facebook).

I found a video from that gig in 2015, this composition is from their 2nd album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZX1VMf410wo
@supernaut, hope you'll like it; @pfnuesel, glad, you liked it .
BTW, the leader of this band, Kamille, is a fellow psychonaut himself.
The Grand Astoria (Saint Petersburg, Russia) – "The Mighty Few" (2015)
https://thegrandastoria.bandcamp.com/album/the-mighty-few
Rule #1 is broken here, sorry – this band is currently touring Europe celebrating their 10th anniversary.
But the record is really awesome (rule #4) !
I've recalled this album after listening to "The Crucible" (the song), because it consists of only 2 songs, 20+ minutes each.
Crazy mix of psychedelia, prog, metal, doom with elements of reggae, jazz, funk and pure chaos.
Highly recommended to brave psychonauts.
Punj's posts about "The Crucible" are almost as good as the record itself – great pleasure to read.
And as for the album – I've already listened to it 7 or 8 times so far and can't stop myself from pressing the Play button again and again.
Amazing work!
Very nice interview, thank you!
It also has links to interviews about The Tower and HBM. Will read them as well.
+1 to Heron Oblivion (besides vocalist/drummer from Espers it contains members of awesome psychedelic-rock bands Comets on Fire and Assemble Head in Sunburst Sound).
King Buffalo (stoner/psychedelic trio for fans of Elder and All Them Witches): https://kingbuffalo.bandcamp.com/
Hidden Trails (new band of rhythm section from great prog/psychedelic Belgium band Hypnos 69 (one of my all time favorites)): https://hiddentrailsband.bandcamp.com
Church of the Cosmic Skull (very nice retro-hard/prog band): https://churchofthecosmicskull.bandcamp.com/
