 District 97
 Stay for the Ending
 Review by Gary Hill
Chicago's District 97 put out consistently strong progressive rock. It's often too metallic for some prog purists, but it's definitely prog. I really love their blend of modern and classic prog sounds. It seems they excel more with each new disc, and this is no exception. It might be their best to date. It certainly made my "best of 2023" list. I have to say that as a Svengoolie fanatic (that's a horror host from Chicago who is now national via MeTV), this gets bonus points for Jonathan Schang's Svengoolie shirt in the band picture. They don't need those points to make the list, though.
