Pain of Salvation - One Hour By The Concrete Lake
Review by Gary Hill
Although this band seems to walk very closely between the line of prog and prog metal, this reviewer feels that the foot lands on the side of progressive rock.

The PB Army - Spine for the Snapback
Review by Mike Korn
When I heard the debut album "Inebriates, Equivocators and Mockers of the Devil Himself" from Toledo, Ohio's PB Army, I knew I had just encountered a band with a future in the heavy rock business. With their sophomore release, PB Army shows that they haven't lost any momentum.

Pharaoh - After the Fire
Review by Mike Korn
This is a beautiful piece of work. I daresay that if Pharaoh had existed in the 1980's, they would now be releasing box sets in elaborate packaging much like Iron Maiden . They are that good.

Phenomena - Phenomena II - Dream Runner
Review by Gary Hill
Given the scope of musicians on this set, I'm shocked I've never heard of these guys before. This is a reissue of an album released in 1987.

Pineal - Smiling Cult
Review by Gary Hill
I’ve included this in the metal section of Music Street Journal, but it’s not old school metal by any means.

Are the eighties back for more? Well, with the recent success Poison has had it is very likely.

Powerman 5000 - The Noble Rot
Review by Gary Hill
I really like this band. Their dark blend of metal and electronic has plenty of techno and industrial built into it.

Pretty Boy Floyd - Kiss of Death: A Tribute to Kiss
Review by Gary Hill
I’ve always heard of this band, but I don’t think I’ve ever actually heard them before. To me, they look and sound quite a bit like vintage Motley Crue.

Primal Fear - Nuclear Fire
Review by Mike Korn
Primal Fear is a band that would dearly love to be Judas Priest. From the Hellion-style robotic birds on their album covers to the leather garb of the members and the shrieking vocals of Ralf Scheepers, everything about these Germans screams of their desire to follow in the footsteps of the immortal British metal band.

Probot - Probot
Review by Mike Korn
It seems a sad fact that many artists forget the music of their younger days when they "mature". It's not unusual to find a successful musician trying to deny or belittle his time in punk, heavy metal or hard rock bands.

Prong - Zero Days
Review by Kat Heitzman
This three man band is still carrying the metal pitchfork as their sound has officially merged the old with the new. This album has the distinct sound of Prong with all the bells and whistles of newer sounding metal.

Review by Gary Hill
Prowler is a band that originally came to prominence as part of the NWOBHM. Their sound is definitely tied to that era.

Puya - Fundamental
Review by Gary Hill
This one is included as progressive metal, because although it really doesn`t fit the traditional definition of that genre, it includes very unique musical influences and quirky arrangements.
