King Crimson - Audio Diary 2014-2018
Review by Gary Hill

This new five-CD collection is pretty amazing. I've said before, and will repeat it here, that this new version of King Crimson might well be the best lineup they've had, particularly in terms of live shows.

The Security Project - Contact
Review by Gary Hill

This new set from The Security Project continues their cycle of re-envisioning Peter Gabriel songs, but brings new flavors and concepts to that idea, while also stretching it out a bit.

Sylvian/Fripp - Damage
Review by Jason Hillenburg

Robert Fripp's collaborations in the late 1980s and early 1990s with David Sylvian, in retrospect, clearly laid the groundwork for King Crimson's album Thrak.

Trey Gunn - I’ll Tell What I Saw (1993 – 2010)
Review by Gary Hill

This compilation disc shows a lot of versatility. It features recordings released by various projects that featured Trey Gunn. Most of it is instrumental, but there are some vocals.

Unquiet Music Ltd - In The Name Of... (A Prayer For Our Times)
Review by Gary Hill
It would be really hard to slap a label on this album, other than just lumping it in as progressive rock. Much of it is freeform, largely instrumental, weirdness.

More...
Morgan Ågren, Henry Kaiser & Trey Gunn - Invisible Rays
Review by G. W. Hill

Sort of an instrumental prog summit, this set showcases a form of freeform jamming.


More...
The Security Project - Live 1
Review by G. W. Hill

What a cool set this is, really. The music here is all Peter Gabriel music, but one song from his time in Genesis.

Russia bears mystery and curious allure to many advanced musicians from the West.

King Crimson - Live in Birmingham, England in September 2015
Review by John Pierpoint

I had never seen the mighty King Crimson play live before - not surprising, as I was only ten years old when the band last played my home town in 1974!

King Crimson - Live in Chicago
Review by Gary Hill

King Crimson has one of the most interesting and complicated histories in all of progressive rock. The lineup is one of the most dynamic, too.


More...
King Crimson - Live in Vienna
Review by Gary Hill

It seems that there is quite a bit of live material being released from this version of King Crimson. That's a great thing because this line-up might be the best ever.

Various Artists - Meddle Reimagined: A Tribute to Pink Floyd
Review by Gary Hill
Tribute albums like this are always interesting, but also often disappointing.

Unquiet Music Ltd - MEMEmusic
Review by Gary Hill
As unique as the last album from Unquiet Music Ltd. was, I think this is even more "out there." Yet, it's strangely compelling.

King Crimson - Music Is Our Friend: Live In Washington D.C. and Albany 2021
Review by Gary Hill
I have to say that for my money, the modern incarnation of King Crimson really is probably the best. The reason I say that is that there are distinct periods of the band throughout their history.

More...
JJ Chardeau - Ombres And Lumières
Review by Gary Hill
This is the second album from this artist I've reviewed. I loved the other one, and I think I like this one even more.

Review by G. W. Hill

Anyone who has heard anything from Stick men will know what to expect here.

Marco Mattei - Out Of Control
Review by Gary Hill
This is an unusual release. Parts of it are full-on progressive rock.

Alex Anthony Faide - Particles of the Infinite
Review by Gary Hill
This is an unusual release. It's an instrumental disc with the music often in the heavy range, but sometimes working to mellower territory.

More...
Deep Energy Orchestra - Playing with Fire
Review by Gary Hill

This is quite an intriguing set. It features a sound that seems to be a merging of world music of the Indian variety, fusion and progressive rock.


More...
Stick Men - Prog Noir
Review by G. W. Hill
This band is really coming into its own.

More...
O.R.k. - Ramagehead
Review by Gary Hill

This is a unique and quite intriguing album. It's likely to make my best of 2019 list.

Pat Mastelotto - Recidivate
Review by Grant Hill

This double CD compilation is an interesting and unique collage of multiple percussive styles given to a wide palette of genres and colors therein.


More...
Adrian Benavides - Same Time Next Life
Review by G. W. Hill

There is definitely an industrial sort of vibe to this cut. In fact, a lot of it seems close to Tool or even Nine Inch Nails.


More...
Stick Men - Stick Men + - Midori
Review by G. W. Hill

This is a double disc set. I believe that it was also released at one point in time as two single disc sets.

Tu-Ner - T1 – Contact Information

Review by Gary Hill
You just can't go wrong with Stick Men. The band is made up of Tony Levin, Pat Mastelotto and Markus Reuter.

Trey Gunn - The Waters, They Are Rising
Review by G. W. Hill

This mostly instrumental set is not necessarily the kind of thing that’s well suited to a track by track review.

King Crimson - Thrak
Review by G. W. Hill

When King Crimson reformed after the 80s period, there were definitely elements of that period still present in their sound.

Magma - To Life, Death and Beyond: The Music of Magma DVD
Review by Gary Hill

Given that the music of Magma is set in their own language, it seems appropriate that most people will need captions on for this film.

Stick Men - With Gary Husband - Owari
Review by Gary Hill
Stick Men consistently put out quality material. So, the fact that this album is a strong as it is should be no surprise.
