Sayed Sabrina - Thou Art That
Review by Gary Hill

This is an intriguing set. I've landed it under the prog rock heading because much of it fits as "art rock." There is an artsy vibe to most of the set, really.


More
Guido Umberto Sacco - Music for Dodos
Review by Gary Hill
While much of this is classical in nature, it’s more a progressive rock set than pure classical.

More
Michael Sadler - Clear
Review by Josh Turner
The albums being released from Prog Rock Records these days exhibit exceptional production. This is by no means an exception.
More
Salim Ghazi Saeedi - Million Hands Oriental Dancer
Review by Gary Hill
Salim Ghazi Saeedi is a musician who originally hailed from Iran, but is now relocated to Australia.

More
Saga - Spin It Again: Live in Munich
Review by Gary Hill
Saga is such a cool band. And, with Michael Sadler back, it’s the original voice.

More
Saga - Sagacity
Review by Gary Hill
The first disc of this two CD set is a brand new album from Saga.

More
Saga - Saga (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This album was the one that began the Saga saga. Sorry, I tried to resist that little (very little) pun, but I just couldn't. Saga's sound brought a different angle to progressive rock.

More
Saga - Images at Twilight (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
The second release from Canadian prog rock outfit Saga, this came out in 1979. It seemed to build upon the foundation begun with their first album.

More
Sailor Free - Spiritual Revolution Part Two
Review by Gary Hill
This new album from Sailor Free might well make my best of 2016 list. It’s such cool modern prog.

More
Taiko Saito - Tears of a Cloud
Review by Gary Hill
The first thing I should get out of the way is that this is not progressive rock. In fact, it's not rock music at all.

More
Salem Hill - Be
Review by Steve Alspach
Thank God for perseverance. Without it, Edison would have said "The hell with it, candlelight's not so bad," the book of Exodus would have been a lot shorter, and Salem Hill wouldn't have given us this crafty little gem.
More
Salem Hill - Mimi's Magical Moment
Review by Josh Turner
They don't even sound like the same band and I hate to say it, that turns out to be a very good thing. I'd sooner think this was a new album by Kaipa or Kansas than by Salem Hill.
More
Michael Salvatori - Waiting for Autumn
Review by Gary Hill
I covered a release from the band Apocalypse, whose 1976 album was recently released for the first time. That band was composed of several musicians including brothers Tom and Michael Salvatori.

More
Samurai - Samurai
Review by Gary Hill
This is a new edition of a lost album from 1971. I had heard of this band before, but never heard them.

More
The Angelica Sanchez Nonet - Nighttime Creatures
Review by Gary Hill
This album lands under prog because that's where we put fusion. This sort of experimental jazz seems to qualify.

More
Angelica Sanchez & Marilyn Crispell - How To Turn The Moon
Review by Gary Hill

This is quite an intriguing album. It's very artistic.


More
David Sancious - Eyes Wide Open
Review by Gary Hill

The cover of this disc describes it as a "movie for your ears." Musically this is essentially fusion.


More
Sanguine Hum - What We Ask Is Where We Begin: Songs for Days Sessions
Review by Gary Hill
The first disc here is an old album from a band who has gotten quite a following since then. The second disc of the set includes rarities.

More
Joseph Sant - Sea White Salt
Review by Gary Hill
I can see people arguing with this getting placed under progressive rock.

More
Savoldelli – Casarano – Bardoscia - The Great Jazz Gig In The Sky
Review by Gary Hill
This CD is made up of songs from Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon. Of course, the title might give that away.

More
Saxlife - Total Sax Retain Saxlife Plays Yes
Review by Gary Hill
Saxlife is Jamison Smeltz performing as a saxophone quartet of one. Here he has compiled a collection of his arrangements of Yes songs.
More
Scenes - Call Us At The Number You Provide
Review by Gary Hill
While this band is being billed as prog metal, frankly, I think they fit more firmly into the progressive rock category. While there certainly is a lot of crunch on display here, they show a wider range of sounds than that limiting factor would seem to indicate.
More
Hendrik Schapel, Bertram Engel, Eddie McGrogan - One or Zero – The Lost Album
Review by Gary Hill
This album dates back to 1981.

More
Micha Schellhaas - Double Take
Review by Gary Hill
This album might not be progressive rock. Most of it is fusion, though.

More
Don Schiff - Peering Over Clouds
Review by Gary Hill
Over the years several musicians have started using The Stick - an instrument that combines both guitar and bass like ranges into one instrument.
More
Jason Schmidt - Banged Oddities
Review by Vivian Lee
"One person did this?"; a friend asked when I played this CD for him. He and I both liked "Tranquility"; an example of the power of percussion to command listeners' attention, even on a sub- or unconscious level.
More
Sara Schoenbeck - Sara Schoenbeck
Review by Gary Hill
Sara Schoenbeck plays bassoon. This album finds her teaming up with various musicians to create unusual sonic tapestries.

More
Dave Schoepke - Drums on Low
Review by Gary Hill
This new release features only one thing – drums. These aren’t drum solos, though, but rather songs composed strictly for drums.

More
Dave Schoepke - Tessellated Resonance
Review by Gary Hill

This is the second set from Dave Schoepke that I've reviewed. Like that one, I've landed this under the progressive rock heading because of the experimental nature of it.


More
Sarah Schonert - Penguin Party
Review by Gary Hill
This is clearly not progressive rock by a conventional definition. It is art rock, though. This has a lot in common with Kate Bush.

More
Sarah Schonert - Songs About Sounds
Review by Gary Hill
There are some intriguing pieces of music here. Some of it, to my ears, gets marred by a processing that lends it to feel warbly.

More
Klaus Schulze - Another Green Mile
Review by Gary Hill
This is an odd, but quite interesting disc. It's electronic, but it also rocks at times.

More
Klaus Schulze - Ballett 3 & 4
Review by Gary Hill
The opening track of this two CD set is massive one hour and fifteen minutes plus cut. It has a blend of classical music, electronic and space sound.

More
ScienceNV - Last Album Before the End of Time
Review by Jason Hillenburg
Founded in 2005, this San Francisco based outfit's third album, Last Album Before the End of Time, is an ambitious work and a successful synthesis of multiple musical styles.

More
ScienceNV - Bite My Bolero
Review by Mike Korn
Prog fans with a love of classical music are highly urged to check out this three-track EP from ScienceNV, whose ranks are composed of actual scientists.

More
ScienceNV - The Quest For Prester John, Volume 1
Review by Greg Olma
As a reviewer, I’m exposed to a lot of interesting music; some good, some not so good.  There is so much music coming out that flies under the radar that we (as the music buying public) don’t get exposed to in our normal lives. 

More
ScienceNV - The Quest for Prester John, Volume Two
Review by Greg Olma
ScienceNV returns with the second part to their concept The Quest For Prester John.  I liked the first part, so I was really looking forward to hearing this disc. 

More
Erik Scott - And the Earth Bleeds
Review by Gary Hill
Erik Scott is probably best known for his work with Alice Cooper.

More
Screaming Bones - And It'll All Be Good
Review by Gary Hill
If you like trippy, instrumental space rock, you should check this double CD album out. Like much good space music, this evolves slowly.

More
Sea Level - On the Edge
Review by Gary Hill
This 1978 album from Sea Level is a great set.

More
Brandon Seabrook's Epic Proportions - brutalovechamp
Review by Gary Hill
It's a pretty safe bet you've never heard anything quote like this.

More
Second Hand - Death May Be Your Santa Claus
Review by Gary Hill
The music on this disc is freaky stuff. It really does a great job of occupying the space between psychedelia and proto-prog.

More
Seconds Before Landing - The Great Deception
Review by Gary Hill
This concept album is pretty cool.

More
Seconds Before Landing - Seconds Before Landing II
Review by Gary Hill
I reviewed the previous set from Seconds Before Landing and thought it was good.

More
Seconds Before Landing - III: Now That I Have Your Attention
Review by Gary Hill
I've reviewed a couple other discs from this act in the past. It seems that every time they release something new, it's much stronger than the previous album.

           


More
The Security Project - Live 1
Review by Gary Hill
What a cool set this is, really. The music here is all Peter Gabriel music, but one song from his time in Genesis.

More
The Security Project - Live 2
Review by Gary Hill
The first part of this live album came out recently. If you read my review, you'll know that I love it.


More
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.

More
Scotty Seed - Hallow's Eve
Review by Gary Hill
This is clearly not the tightest fit under progressive rock. A lot of people will likely disagree with the decision to land it there.

More
Senses - Fields Unsown
Review by Gary Hill
The music on this disc is quite strong progressive rock by an independent band that should, if there is justice, begin getting some attention soon. The music herein is quite good, although there is a slight tendency for sameness.
More
Sara Serpa & André Matos - Night Birds
Review by Gary Hill
This music is art music. It is probably considered jazz-aligned, but this really stretches beyond that.

More
Oriana Setz - Metamorfosis
Review by Gary Hill

This is quite an effective and entertaining set. I have put this under progressive rock, but I'm sure some will argue with that. The mix of sounds, jazz, world and rock might qualify it by itself.


More
Seven Crows - Secrets Of Navigation
Review by Gary Hill

Here is one that is perhaps not a tight fit under progressive rock. That said, the intriguing blend of instrumental world music with classical, rock and more is decidedly progressive.


More
7Fields - Heart in a Cage (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill
This is a cover of a Strokes song, but I have to admit that I haven’t heard the original.

More
Seventh Wave - Psi-Fi
Review by Gary Hill
This 1975 album is pretty cool. I'm reminded quite a bit of Klaatu a lot of the time, but this was actually contemporary (more or less) to that band. There is a healthy helping of funk built into a lot of this. 

More
Seventh Wave - Things to Come
Review by Gary Hill
This reissue album is a classy one. A big chunk of the disc is instrumental and keyboard based.

More
Carlos Severe Marcelin - Impressionist
Review by Gary Hill

This new album features multi-instrumentalist Carlos Severe Marcelin who is part of the Sally Tomato band. The album is instrumental except for one cut.


More
Shadow Gallery - Legacy
Review by Gary Hill
Legacy is Shadow Gallery's fourth disc, and certainly one of their best. Those who consider Shadow Gallery to be prog metal rather than straight progressive rock should really give this disc a listen. 

More
Shadowlands - Ombres
Review by Gary Hill
The music here is hard to describe. It's definitely got plenty of jazz in it.

More
L. Shankar - Chepleeri Dream
Review by Gary Hill

This is quite an intriguing release. L. Shankar performs the vocals, the violin (technically double violin) and keyboards.


More
L. Shankar - Christmas From India
Review by Gary Hill
I previously reviewed another disc from L. Shankar. His double violin is unique as instrument, and his playing is equally intriguing and unusual.

More
William Shatner - Ponder the Mystery
Review by Gary Hill
The last couple albums from William Shatner have landed in my “best of” lists for those two years.

More
William Shatner - Ponder the Mystery Revisited
Review by Gary Hill
This is a remix version of an album that was released in 2013. I really love that original album.

More
Bernie Shaw and Dale Collins - Too Much Information
Review by Gary Hill

I've put this under progressive rock, but it's not a tight fit. There is a definite melodic rock element to the music here that lands in the territory of AOR prog.


More
Jeremy Shaw - Neptune Ensemble
Review by Vivian Lee
Neptune Ensemble is a solo debut effort by Chapel Hill, NC artist Jeremy Shaw. The album features guests Jonathan Robinson on bass guitar and backing vocals, and Marc Gratama on drums and backing vocals.
More
Billy Sheehan - Compression
Review by Gary Hill
Billy Sheehan is a bass legend, and, of course the bass work on this disc is very very good. Interestingly enough, so is the guitar, drums and vocal work. Even more interesting about that is the fact that Sheehan is responsible for the majority of that as well.

More
Billy Sheehan - Cosmic Troubadour
Review by Gary Hill

The bass guitar is an instrument whose players are often overlooked, relegated to playing the rhythm hidden behind guitar heroes, singers and keyboard wizards. A few bassists have managed to put together chops and performances that allow them to rise above this status.


More
Derek Sherinian - Inertia
Review by Gary Hill
With this CD Sherinian continues his tradition of creating hard edged prog that is quite firmly rooted in fusion. The disc succeeds very well in creating an energetic and considerably potent instrumental mode that sends the listener on a major journey.

More
Derek Sherinian - Planet X
Review by Gary Hill
This one really comes as a surprise to many. Coming from such gigs as Alice Cooper`s band and Kiss, when Sherinian joined Dream Theater, he was perceived as more the rock and roll type of style, and less prog.
More
Derek Sherinian - Molecular Heinosity (Reissue)
Review by Gary Hill
This is part of a new series of reissues of Derek Sherinian albums.

More
Derek Sherinian - Black Utopia
Review by Gary Hill
This album is just getting reissued.

More
Derek Sherinian - Mythology
Review by Gary Hill
This Derek Sherinian disc is just getting the reissue treatment.

More
Billy Sherwood - Citizen
Review by Gary Hill
A contender for best of the year, this is arguably Sherwood’s best solo album ever.

More
Billy Sherwood - Collection
Review by Gary Hill
This new compilation album seems a great way to sample Billy Sherwood’s solo output.

More
Billy Sherwood - Divided by One
Review by Gary Hill
I like pretty much everything Billy Sherwood does.

More
Billy Sherwood and Tony Kaye - Live in Japan Expanded Edition
Review by Gary Hill
This live album literally features just Billy Sherwood and Tony Kaye. Kaye handles the keyboards.

More
Shihori - Perfect Imperfection (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill

This new single comes from an artist who has found a way to turn adversity into a strength. She has overcome a number of things in her own life and come out on the other side with a positive outlook.


More
Shining Pyramid - Children of the Stones
Review by Gary Hill
This is an instrumental prog set. A lot of it is in the mellower zone, a bit like Tangerine Dream. 

More
Shob - Karma Obscur
Review by Gary Hill
This set is quite cool. The musicianship is incredible.

More
Shob - Solide
Review by Gary Hill
This is the second disc from this outfit that I've reviewed. The brand of fusion is potent and intriguing.

More
Shofar - Shofar
Review by Gary Hill
The sound these guys create is both intriguing and captivating. I've landed them under progressive rock, but their brand is modern and AOR based.

More
Shrunken Head Shop - Live in Germany
Review by Gary Hill
This live album is all about jamming.

More
Shumaun - One Day Closer to Yesterday
Review by Gary Hill
This is apparently the sophomore disc from this outfit.

More
Siena Root - The Secret of Our Time
Review by Gary Hill

This is the latest set from Siena Root. I think it might be the best of theirs I've heard.


More
Matt Siffert - Gallatin
Review by Gary Hill
This is definitely not a tight fit under progressive rock, but there is enough of the moody modern prog sound that I think it fits. The set works through a variety of textures, but does lean toward the mellower end of the equation.

More
Silverback Colony - I Want More (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill
This is just one song, so it's a single, but given the epic length of the piece, over eleven-minutes, it almost feels more like an EP.

More
Simak Dialog - Trance/Mission
Review by Gary Hill
So, this disc is arguably pure jazz.

More
Simak Dialog - The Sixth Story
Review by Gary Hill
These guys always create great fusion.

More
Simak Dialog - Live at Orion
Review by Gary Hill
Simak Dialog’s brand of music has a lot of fusion and a lot of progressive rock at its heart.

More
Simon Apple - River to the Sea
Review by Gary Hill
So many people these days give lip service to this charity or that, but you really have to admire the people who put their money (literally) where their mouth is. Such is the case with Simon Apple as they are donating a portion of the sale of each CD to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

More
Alan Simon - Songwriter
Review by Gary Hill
I don't think I had heard of Alan Simon until recently. This double disc set captures a lot of his previous work.

More
Alan Simon - Excalibur IV: The Dark Age of the Dragon
Review by Gary Hill
This is the newest CD from Alan Simon. Simon is a French artist who has been releasing powerful rock operas like this one for a long time.

More
Alan Simon - Big Bang
Review by Gary Hill
The newest disc from Alan Simon, this is another strong one. It has a lot of the melodic progressive rock sounds that are the mainstay of so much of his career.

More
Alan Simon - Excalibur: The Ladies of the Lake
Review by Gary Hill
This is a compilation album featuring the music of French songwriter Alan Simon. There is a theme running to the selections here, in that they all feature female singers.

More
Alan Simon - Chouans
Review by Gary Hill
This new double disc set is a telling of the French Revolution. As Alan Simon tells it, the disc focuses on the dark side of the story, which has often been relegated to the forgotten section of history.

More
Alan Simon - Excalibur V – Move, Cry Act, Clash!
Review by Gary Hill
Alan Simon consistently creates compelling music. It's generally of the prog rock variety, but lands more along the lines of rock opera or even musical theater.

More
Sinoptik - Standalone Syndrome (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill
I guess these guys are billed as stoner rock. I tend to think of stoner rock as more slow, plodding, Sabbath-like heavy stuff.

More
Josh Sinton - Couloir & Book of Practitioners Vol. 2: Book W
Review by Gary Hill
This is not really progressive rock. It's definitely avant-garde, and the kind of thing that lands along the lines of the Rock in Opposition movement.

More
Dana Sipos - The Astral Plane
Review by Gary Hill
In terms of progressive rock, this definitely doesn't fit under the heading. I'd argue that  it fits as art rock music.

More
Asaf Sirkis - Solar Flash
Review by Gary Hill
This new album from percussionist Asaf Sirkis is a cool exercise in fusion. There is a good range here, and some positively exceptional pieces.

More
Sirkis/Bialas IQ - Our New Earth
Review by Gary Hill

The music presented here is really hard to pin down in terms of musical genre. There is certainly a lot of jazz in the mix.


More
Sista Maj - Series of Nested Universes
Review by Gary Hill
This is instrumental space rock. It's quite cool stuff. It has a pretty wide range of music, but as is the case with most space rock, the change is always gradual.

More
Sit Kitty Sit - Tectonic
Review by Gary Hill
I previously reviewed a set from this act and really liked it. The concept of just piano, drums and voice used to really rock, sets them apart.

More
Alex Skolnick Trio - Transformation
Review by Gary Hill
Alex Skolnick is a true artist, not content to sit still in one musical genre. Certainly he is probably best known as the guitarist for the metal band Testament, his first professional gig.
More
Sky - Sky
Review by Gary Hill
This was the debut album from Sky. It really set a high bar.

More
Sky - Sky 2
Review by Gary Hill
This was originally released as a double LP on vinyl.  It actually almost feels like two different albums.

More
Sky - Sky 3
Review by Gary Hill
As you might gather from the title, this was the third album from Sky. Between the two releases Francis Monkman had departed, being replaced by Steve Gray.

More
Sky - Sky 4: Forthcoming
Review by Gary Hill
The fourth album from Sky focused on new arrangements of music written by others. While there is an emphasis on classical music, there are other things included as well.

More
Sky - Cadmium
Review by Gary Hill
This album is not nearly as classically oriented as some of their others are. Still, the classical elements do drive some of the pieces.

More
Sky - The Great Balloon Race
Review by Gary Hill
While overall the concept of instrumental prog/fusion isn't greatly changed from their previous works, this one is just so strong. The quality and intensity are really dialed up a lot.

More
Sky - Mozart
Review by Gary Hill
The final album (to date - the group has not worked together since, but have not officially disbanded), this is the most classical release they ever did. It was recorded with a symphony orchestra.

More
Sky - The Studio Albums: 1979-1987 Box Set
Review by Gary Hill
This is a particularly awesome box set. It's also a great value. You get all seven of Sky's studio albums, and as a bonus there is a live DVD included as the eighth disc.

More
Sky - Carillon: The Singles Collection 1979-1987
Review by Gary Hill
A while ago I reviewed a box set of studio albums from Sky. For my money, that might be the best introduction to this act.

More
Sky Architect - A Billion Years of Solitude
Review by Gary Hill
If I’d heard this disc in 2013 (the year it was released) it might have made my best of list for the year.

More
The Skys - Journey through the Skies
Review by Gary Hill
I like this act a lot. There is a cool mix of sounds here.

More
SkyTalk - Days in the Sun
Review by Gary Hill
This EP is a progressive rock set. That said, it’s not the kind of prog that was around in the 1970s.

More
Slack Armada - Slack Armada
Review by Gary Hill
This four track EP is pretty cool.

More
Sleepwreck - Disasterpiece
Review by Gary Hill
Although this is probably more electronic music than it is anything else directly, I’d consider it prog.

More
Slivovitz - All You Can Eat
Review by Gary Hill
Modern progressive rock, there is a lot of King Crimson built into this.

More
Slivovitz - Liver
Review by Gary Hill
I've always dug this band. Their combination of fusion with pure jazz, King Crimson-like guitar work and more has filled their studio discs with smoking hot instrumental work.

More
Sloe Gin - A Matter of Time
Review by Gary Hill
I can see why some people might argue with putting this into progressive rock.

More
John Sloman - Two Rivers
Review by Gary Hill
This is an unusual release. It's not a hard sell under progressive rock, although a lot of it does fit there.

More
Slow Burning Car - Defection
Review by Gary Hill
There is at least one song here that definitely doesn't fit under prog rock. The thing is, there is plenty of prog built into this sound beyond that.

More
Slow Burning Car - Projection
Review by Gary Hill
I previously reviewed another set from this act and landed it under progressive rock. I said that one wasn't a tight fit. entertaining set.

More
Slow Burning Car - Vicarious Disclosures
Review by Gary Hill
I have liked and reviewed several previous albums from this act. I always put them under progressive rock. I'm doing that here.

More
Sluka - Ready to Connect (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill
These guys were sent via their PR rep as heavy goth rock and post-punk. I can see that, but just based on this track, I've landed them under progressive rock.

More
Sluka - Hey Oh (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill
This is the second single from Sluka that I've reviewed. I landed the first one under prog, and I'm going to do the same here.

More
Sluka - Ready to Connect
Review by Gary Hill

This is really a hard artist to pin down stylistically.


More
Sluka - Vampire's Ball (digital single)
Review by Gary Hill

I've reviewed quite a bit of stuff from this artist. I pretty much universally enjoy the music they create.


More
The Smallest Creature - Reboot (Digital Single)
Review by Gary Hill
I've not heard these guys before. I really hope to hear a lot more from them.

More
The Smallest Creature - Magic Beans
Review by Gary Hill
I previously reviewed a single from this act. I landed that under progressive rock. I'm doing the same here, but it's not the tightest fit from start to finish.

More
Cory Smythe - Accelerate Every Voice
Review by Gary Hill

It seems appropriate that this release is being reviewed in the same issue as a collection by John Cage. This is similar to his work in the way that it is very much outside the box and experimental.


More
Cory Smythe - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
Review by Gary Hill
The music here, like on the previous release from Cory Smythe I reviewed, is decidedly freeform and experimental.

More
Snoozy Moon - Snoozy Moon
Review by Gary Hill
I suppose it could be argued that this is more psychedelic rock than it is progressive rock.

More
Snoozy Moon - Said the Squirrel
Review by Gary Hill
Like with their previous release, I'm perhaps stretching the boundaries to include this under progressive rock. I think that's a worthy cause, though.

More
Miró Henry Sobrer - Two of Swords
Review by Gary Hill
This is quite an unusual, but also intriguing, album. The music here is essentially jazz based, but it has a tendency to get into art music zones.

More
Soft Machine - Drop
Review by Gary Hill
I struggled with this review. It’s not that I don’t respect the musicianship. Clearly I do.

More
Soft Machine - Virtually
Review by Gary Hill
This album features a live recording from 1971.

More
Soft Machine - Drop (colored vinyl edition)
Review by Gary Hill
This new vinyl edition is classy. The vinyl is red and very high quality.

More
Soft Machine - Hidden Details
Review by Gary Hill
This is the brand new album from Soft Machine. A group with a long history, the current lineup is John Etheridge, Theo Travis, Roy Babbington and John Marshall.

More
Soft Machine - Live at the Baked Potato
Review by Gary Hill
This is a new live album recorded at a Los Angeles show in 2019. The instrumental music here has a jam band vibe throughout a lot of it, but it is also quite jazzy and decidedly prog.
More
Soft Machine - Other Doors
Review by Gary Hill
Soft Machine has such a history of creating compelling jazz leaning music. This new album fits well within that legacy.

More
Soft Machine Legacy - Burden of Proof
Review by Gary Hill
Soft Machine Legacy’s blend of sounds often defies categorization.

More
Soft Works - Abracadabra In Osaka
Review by Gary Hill
There is a real history behind this project. It's a lot more complicated and extensive story than I have space to fully convey in the space of this review.

More
Solace Supplice - Liturgies Contemporaines
Review by Gary Hill
With musical references that reach from modern progressive rock to Gothic rock and much more, this is unique and inventive.

More
Son of Man - Son of Man
Review by Gary Hill
This band is essentially a spin off of the group Man.

More
Son of Man - State Of Dystopia
Review by Gary Hill

Honestly, were this getting placed strictly on the music contained here, it probably wouldn't get put under progressive rock.


More
Sonar - Black Light
Review by Gary Hill
Imagine combining Djam Karet with California Guitar Trio. You'll probably find yourself somewhere in the range of this album.

More
Sonar - Live at Moods
Review by Gary Hill
This new live album is so cool. It's all instrumental and very much built on space rock type sounds.

More
Sonic Debris - Velvet Thorns
Review by Gary Hill
This album is a great progressive rock disc from a band that should go far in the genre. They take a good healthy dosage of Dream Theater influences as the core of their sound. 

More
The Sonic Shaman - Tribute to Lemmy (double vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This vinyl double album is dedicated to the late great Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister. Don't expect music that sounds like Lemmy here, though.

More
Sonic Sight - Anthropology
Review by Gary Hill
This new album is a concept disc. It's essentially a science fiction tale and quite an interesting one at that.

More
Soniq Theater - Heroes of the Past
Review by Gary Hill
There are a few things you can count on with Soniq Theater.

More
Soniq Theater - Guitarissimo
Review by Gary Hill
This album is definitely different for Soniq Theater.

More
Sonomaris - Initium
Review by Gary Hill

I have landed this set under progressive rock. I can see some people disagreeing with that.


More
Sons of Apollo - Psychotic Symphony
Review by Gary Hill
Had I heard this album last year, it would have definitely made my best of 2017 list, and been pretty high on the list. This is an amazing album.

More
Sons of Apollo - MMXX (Deluxe Edition)
Review by Gary Hill

It is still pretty early in the year, but I'll be surprised if this release doesn't make my "best of 2020" list. The mix of sounds here includes metal, good solid hard rock and plenty of progressive rock.


More
Sons of Hippies - Griffons at the Gates of Heaven
Review by Gary Hill
I like this disc a lot. It sits somewhere between space rock and psychedelia, but there are other elements, too.

More
Sontaag - Sontaag
Review by Gary Hill
This is a great album. It’s not the kind of thing that hits you over the head, though.

More
Sonus Umbra - Winter Soulstice
Review by Gary Hill
The mix of sounds here is quite impressive.

More
Sonus Umbra - A Sky Full of Ghosts
Review by Gary Hill
Sonus Umbra's brand of progressive rock is often hard rocking. They have wide ranging influences, though.

More
Bruce Soord - All This Will Be Yours
Review by Gary Hill
This is the new solo album from Bruce Soord, who is probably best known as the lead singer for The Pineapple Thief.

More
Matt Sorum’s Fierce Joy - Stratosphere
Review by Gary Hill
Let’s just start this by saying, I don’t think anyone would have expected this album from Matt Sorum.

More
Soul Secret - 4
Review by Gary Hill
I’ve reviewed these guys in the past, but I wasn’t prepared for just how good this set was going to be.

More
South Florida Jazz Orchestra - Cheap Thrills: The Music of Rick Margitza
Review by Gary Hill

This album perhaps leans more toward standard jazz than fusion, but that fusion connection is solid enough for me to include it under prog (which is where we put fusion).


More
Space Invaders - Invasion on Planet Z
Review by Gary Hill
There are four epic pieces here to make up this set.

Space Invaders - and Nik Turner – Sonic Noise Opera
Review by Gary Hill
I’ve reviewed another album from Space Invaders in this same issue of Music Street Journal.

More
Space Invaders - Dreadnought
Review by Gary Hill
This album consists of instrumental, improvised space rock.

More
Space Invaders - Ayakashi
Review by Gary Hill
There is one element of space music that is most frequently true. It evolves very slowly, shifting in gradual waves rather than turning corners.

More
Space Mirrors - The Other Gods
Review by Gary Hill
The latest installment in the series by Space Mirrors, this continues their exploration of the writings of H.P. Lovecraft.

More
Space Mirrors - The Street Remains
Review by Gary Hill
This album was released just before Cosmic Horror III: Stella Polaris but recorded during the same sessions as that album. This one lands a bit less metallic than that album.

More
Space Mirrors - Cosmic Horror III: Stella Polaris
Review by Gary Hill
I've reviewed several albums from this act before, but missed this one and the other that's reviewed in this issue previously.

More
Spaced Out - Spaced Out
Review by Gary Hill
Spaced Out (Antoine Fafard, Mathieu Bouchard, Martin Maheux, Louis Cote and Eric St.-Jean) have in their debut a solid album showcasing a progressive rock style that is based heartily in the fusion genre.

More
Spaced Out - Eponymous II
Review by Gary Hill
With this being Spaced Out's sophomore release, the group seems to have done pretty well against the dreaded "sophomore jinx".

More
The Spaces Between - Let’s Leave It at This for Now
Review by Gary Hill
Certainly fans of Yes and specifically Jon Anderson will be drawn to this disc.

More
Spacewave - Space Dubs
Review by Gary Hill
This is not progressive rock in a traditional sense. However, it's as much prog as acts like Kraftwerk.

More
Spastic Ink - Ink Compatible
Review by Josh Turner
Many influences can be heard and many comparisons can be drawn, however, the outcome is quite unique. While one prescription dulls the pain, another treats the downing affects with a stimulating boost.

More
Spiral Architect - A Sceptic's Universe
Review by Yoni Bashan
When the band Spiral Architect comes to mind, one can only visualise intense melodic chaos or the impossible pictures of M.C Escher.
More
Spiraling - Transmitter
Review by Josh Turner
You may be wondering how Spiraling fits into the music scene. That's simple.

More
Spirits Burning - and Clearlight - Healthy Music in Large Doses
Review by Gary Hill
Spirits Burning does a lot of varied material.

More
Spirits Burning - and Clearlight - The Roadmap In Your Head
Review by Gary Hill
There is quite a range of sound here. It is all definitely prog rock, but within that realm there are things like electronic music, folk prog, space, fusion and more.

More
Spirits Burning - & Michael Moorcock - An Alien Heat
Review by Gary Hill
I always like the music from Spirits Burning. This album is no exception.

More
Spirits Burning - & Michael Moorcock - The Hollow Lands
Review by Gary Hill
Spirits Burning really puts out some interesting music. It's generally in the space rock zone, but there is quite a bit of range to it.

More
Spirits Burning - Evolution Ritual
Review by Gary Hill
I have reviewed quite a bit of music from Spirits Burning, in various configurations.

More
Hans Spitzen - Fingerprints
Review by Gary Hill
This is a good album that, with a bit of work, could have been a great album.

More
Splinter - Devil's Jigsaw
Review by Josh Turner
There are so many mediocre bands these days that it's become like sand on a beach. I guess this proliferation of music is good in some ways.

More
Spock's Beard - Gluttons for Punishment (Live in '05)
Review by Josh Turner
It's been years since I've gotten to see Spock's Beard live. It's not for lack of desire or anything.

More
Spock's Beard - Octane
Review by Josh Turner
Octane is accessible, progressive, modern and diverse. It's delicate at times, heavy at others.

More
Spock's Beard - Feel Euphoria
Review by Steve Alspach
Well, it isn't the Spock's Beard that we've all grown accustomed to. With Neal Morse's departure, the band bares little semblance to it's old self, but that's not to say that the band hasn't lost its edge.
More
Spock's Beard - Snow
Review by Steve Alspach
The parallels are amazing. A band, noticed for its work in progressive rock, releases for its sixth album an epic tale of a young man making his way in the world, only to have the band's lead singer surprisingly pack it in and leave the band.

More
Spock's Beard - V
Review by Steve Alspach

The fifth album from Spock's Beard shows them to be at the forefront of current progressive music. In this album the band is able to play exciting, adventurous music without ever becoming self-indulgent or pompous.


More
Spock's Beard - Beware of Darkness
Review by Gary Hill
The leanings on this album are widespread (Neil Young, Yes, Beatles, King Crimson), and the changes are so fast as to be difficult to keep track of at times.

More
Spock's Beard - Day For Night
Review by Steve Alspach

Day for Night is the fourth studio album from Spock`s Beard. The album is a departure from their earlier albums in that shorter numbers has replaced the fifteen-minute suites.


More
Spock's Beard - Kindness of Strangers
Review by Gary Hill

Considered by many to be one of the best of the new wave of progressive rock bands, Spock`s Beard was formed in 1992 in Los Angeles.


More
Spock's Beard - The Light
Review by Gary Hill

This album shows influences from many prog directions (Yes, Genesis, Alan Parsons) and nonprog directions (metal, Elton John). .


More
Spock's Beard - Brief Nocturnes and Dreamless Sleep
Review by Gary Hill
I hate to have to say it, but I was a little disappointed with this album.

More
Spoke of Shadows - Spoke of Shadows
Review by Gary Hill
This set is a powerful one.

More
Spontaneous Rex - Come at the King
Review by Gary Hill
There is some amazing music here.

More
Spyro Gyra - Three Wishes
Review by Gary Hill
This classic set from Spyro Gyra doesn’t have a lot of surprises.

More
Squackett - A Life Within a Day - Special Edition
Review by Gary Hill
This new edition of the album created by the collaborative project led by Steve Hackett and Chris Squire includes a bonus Blu-Ray.

More
Squintaloo - Über Bord!
Review by Gary Hill
Squintaloo is a new German outfit. They are an instrumental act (well, the final song has a few vocals at the end).

More
Chris Squire - Fish Out of Water (Two CD Re-Mastered Edition)
Review by Gary Hill
This new edition of Chris Squire's debut solo album is great. It's a two CD set.

More
ST 37 - I’m Not Good
Review by Gary Hill
I like this album a lot.

More
Stackridge - Extravaganza 2CD Edition
Review by Gary Hill
One of three double CD sets of Stackridge reissues I'm reviewing in this issue, I think this is more pure prog rock than the others.

More
Stackridge - Mr. Mick, 2CD Expanded Edition
Review by Gary Hill
Mr. Mick was the final album from the original version of Stackridge. They recorded it as a concept piece, and presented it to their record label.

More
Stackridge - The Man In The Bowler Hat, 2CD Expanded Edition
Review by Gary Hill
As the title might suggest, this band is a very definitively British act. This was their third album, released in 1974.

More
Stackridge - The Forbidden City (2-CD/DVD Box Set Edition)
Review by Gary Hill
Stackridge's sound is often built around folk music, older British sounds and more. Yet there is plenty of progressive rock at play.

More
Star Nation - The Silver Age
Review by Bruce Stringer
Hawkwind drummer Richard Chadwick and ex-Hawkwind guitarist Jerry Richards play alongside musicians Steve Hayes, Alex Hart, Steve Taylor and scribe Sophie Knight on this album of industrial, post-punk, space-rock. The Silver Age is a thematic CD with many a surprise in stall for the listener and many interesting lyrics to puzzle over.
More
Star Nation - Star Nation EP
Review by Bruce Stringer
The first thing to get my attention to this EP was the card CD sleeve design: didn't I see this in Chariots of the Gods? Dressed up as an independent CD single with lyric card inserts, this is a very interesting disc and a pity that it will probably never get the release it deserves.
More
Star People - ...Are Coming
Review by Gary Hill

Star People … are weird … and intriguing and fun. Did I mention weird?


More
Star People - Genius
Review by Gary Hill

The follow-up to Star People's …Are Coming, Genius shows the band in a lot more natural and polished form.


More
Star People - Black Tie & Tails
Review by Gary Hill
I've been a fan of Star People since they originally made their presence known. They had an unusual schtick - or perhaps several.

More
Starcastle - Starcastle
Review by Gary Hill
Starcastle have gotten much criticism over the years for being "a rip off of Yes". Certainly the Yes influences are very strong, but honestly they really did their own take on those influences.
More
Starcastle - Chronos I
Review by Gary Hill
This is a collection of early material from Starcastle. Rather than go with the standard best of type collection, this one is composed of nothing but unreleased material.
More
Starfish64 - The Future in Reverse
Review by Gary Hill
This is quite an effective set. It has a good balance between shorter pieces and epic suites.

More
Staring into Nothing - Power
Review by Gary Hill
This new album is a concept work. The story-line talks about a dystopian view of the modern world.

More
Staring into Nothing - Love
Review by Gary Hill

The sound this California band produces is melodic rock. There is plenty of modern AOR styled prog in that tapestry, though.


More
State Urge - White Rock Experience
Review by Gary Hill
I love this album. In fact, it’s likely to make my “best of 2013” list.

More
State Urge - Confrontation
Review by Gary Hill
A candidate for best of 2015, I love this album.

More
Status Foe - Falling Awake
Review by Gary Hill
This is certainly not progressive rock in the traditional sense. Then again, that purist definition seems limited to me.

More
Steam Theory - Asunder
Review by Gary Hill
It can be tough to make an instrumental album work.

More
Steamhammer - Mountains
Review by Gary Hill
This album is quite cool. It's definitely a product of its time. It's not pure prog rock, either.

More
Steeleye Span - Dodgy Bastards
Review by Rick Damigella
Folk rock legends Steeleye Span have been crafting their unique blend of ancient music-meets-modern instrumentation for the better part of five decades.

More
Steeleye Span - All Things Are Quite Silent: Complete Recordings 1970-1971
Review by Gary Hill
This new box set features three full albums from Steeleye Span. It comes in a nice clamshell box and includes an impressive booklet.

More
Steeleye Span - Hark! The Village Wait
Review by Gary Hill
The first album from Steeleye Span, this was released in 1970. It's perhaps more acoustic and traditionally driven than the discs that followed it.

More
Steeleye Span - Please to See the King
Review by Gary Hill
This is Steeleye Span's second disc, released in 1971. As much as I enjoy the first album, I'd say that this one elevates things a bit.

More
Steeleye Span - Ten Man Mop Or Mr. Reservoir Butler Rides Again
Review by Gary Hill
Steeleye Span's third album, this was released in 1971 (and was their second release that year). I think this is proggier than the first two.

More
Robby Steinhardt - Not In Kansas Anymore: A Prog Opera
Review by Gary Hill
Robby Steinhardt was probably best known as the violinist for the band Kansas. He was certainly a unique individual in the prog rock scene of the day playing that instrument.

More
Quinn Sternberg - Cicada Songs
Review by Gary Hill
The music here lands under prog at MSJ because it's largely fusion, and we generally put fusion there. That said there are plenty of classic jazz moments. 

More
Quinn Sternberg - Walking On Eggshells
Review by Gary Hill
I previously reviewed another set from Quinn Sternberg. Like that one, this lands under prog because it's essentially fusion.

More
Al Stewart - Past, Present and Future
Review by Gary Hill
You really can’t beat Al Stewart.

More
Al Stewart - Modern Times
Review by Gary Hill
I know that Al Stewart has never considered himself progressive rock.

More
Al Stewart - Orange
Review by Gary Hill
As I’ve mentioned in my other reviews of his music, Al Stewart doesn’t believe that he’s prog rock.

More
Al Stewart - 24 Carrots: 40th Anniversary Edition
Review by Gary Hill
This latest reissue of Al Stewart music is really so classy. You get three CDs here.

More
Al Stewart - Year Of The Cat - 2CD Remastered & Expanded Edition
Review by Gary Hill
This new version of Al Stewart's classic Year of the Cat album is all class. The first disc features the original album remixed from the original master tapes by Alan Parsons.

More
Stick Men - Stick Men + - Midori
Review by Gary Hill
This is a double disc set. I believe that it was also released at one point in time as two single disc sets.

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

More
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.

More
Stick Men - Tentacles
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.

More
Sting - The Last Ship
Review by Gary Hill
I really love this new album from Sting.

More
Stone Angel Syndrome - Discovery
Review by Gary Hill
This is an intriguing and unusual set. Most of the music (only the closing title track has vocals) is instrumental, and it all fits within a "progressive" category, but there is a definite range.

More
Stoner Pop - Stoner Pop
Review by Gary Hill
I have no question about putting this under "progressive rock." Other than the last tune this definitely fits.

More
Storm Chronicles - Looking Backward
Review by Gary Hill
This album is definitely progressive rock.

More
David M. Stowell - A Raven In Flight
Review by Greg Olma
It has been a while since I was given an album to review that was completely unknown to me.

More
Straight Shooter - Get Straight / Five
Review by Gary Hill
This new release of two albums (one for 1978 and the other 1983) on one CD captures an intriguing band.

More
Straight Shooter - Flyin' Straight / Rough 'n Tough
Review by Gary Hill
This is a band that really isn't all that good a fit under progressive rock.

More
Cecilie Strange - Beyond
Review by Gary Hill
Cecile Strange's music is probably more pure jazz than fits under progressive rock, via jazz rock or fusion.

More
Strange Conversations - Teaching Me To Fish
Review by Gary Hill
This CD is a concept album that is based in progressive rock textures. That said, it's really quite varied.

More
Stratus Luna - Stratus Luna
Review by Gary Hill
This is an instrumental album. The sounds range from prog to fusion and the territory in between.

More
The Strawbs - The Ferryman's Curse
Review by Gary Hill
This band is certainly one of the founding pieces of the whole folk prog movement. This brand new album finds that they have lost nothing over the years.

More
The Strawbs - Deadlines (Remastered and Expanded Edition)
Review by Gary Hill
This new edition of a classic Strawbs album is in itself, classic and classy. First, you get the remastered album along with a lot of bonus tracks.

More
The Strawbs - Burning for You
Review by Gary Hill

This new reissue of a 1977 album from The Strawbs is classy. It includes the original album along with a number of bonus tracks.


More
The Strawbs - Heartbreak Hill
Review by Gary Hill

This album in some ways is a bit an oddity. It was recorded in 1978, but for various contractual and other reasons, it wasn't released until 1995.


More
The Strawbs - Settlement
Review by Gary Hill
In some ways you know what you will get when you hear a new Strawbs album.

More
The Strawbs - Broken Hearted Bride Remastered & Expanded
Review by Gary Hill
This is a new edition of a Strawbs album from 2008. The original album was out of print, so just getting the chance to own it will be welcome news for fans of the band.

More
The Strawbs - The Magic of it All
Review by Gary Hill
To some degree you know what you will get with a new Strawbs album. David Cousins' vocals and songwriting are well established.

More
Stream of Passion - Embrace the Storm
Review by Josh Turner
Arjen Lucassen is a pioneer of the progressive as he can always be found engineering new and innovative projects. He finds talent in all the right places and involves many gifted artists in all aspects of his music.

More
Streetmark - Dry
Review by Gary Hill
While this is mostly on the AOR side of the equation, it’s progressive rock.

More
Streetmark - Sky Racer
Review by Gary Hill
This act really covers quite a bit of ground here.

More
Bruce Stringer - One
Review by Greg Olma
Instrumental albums have always been a difficult genre for me to get into. 

More
Striving Artists - Jesus Christ Superstar: A Striving Artists Cast Recording
Review by Gary Hill
Here we have a brand new cast recording of the classic rock musical Jesus Christ Superstar.

More
Dave Sturt - Dreams & Absurdities
Review by Gary Hill
Dave Sturt is probably best known as a member of Gong and Bill Nelson’s band.

More
Styx - The Grand Illusion/Pieces of Eight Live
Review by Gary Hill
I reviewed the DVD of this thing a while back. I love it.

More
Styx - Paradise Theater (Limited Edition Hybrid SACD version)
Review by Gary Hill
I’ve previously reviewed the original version of this album. This rendition is a new reissue that’s a high audio quality version.

More
Styx - Brave New World
Review by Greg Olma
This particular release from Styx is often overlooked but for the life of me,

More
Styx - Live at the Orleans Arena Las Vegas
Review by Gary Hill
This brand new live album from Styx is exactly what you’d expect.

More
Styx - The Mission
Review by Gary Hill
I know that Styx fans have fallen into two camps, the DeYoung people who claim that this version of Styx isn't really Styx and those  who support this lineup.

More
Styx - Lady: Encore Collection
Review by Gary Hill
Since I reviewed the brand new masterpiece from Styx in this issue, it seemed appropriate to go back to the beginning for a companion review. 

More
Styx - Crash of the Crown
Review by Gary Hill
The last album from Styx, The Mission, was my pick for best album of the year when it came out. I would argue that the disc might be the best disc the band ever did.

More
Subterranean Masquerade - Suspended Animation Dreams
Review by Gary Hill
While Subterranean Masquerade are not the only progressive rock band incorporating death metal vocals these days, Suspended Animation Dreams may be the most unusual disc by any of these outfits.

More
Kasim Sulton - 3
Review by Gary Hill
Kasim Sulton is best known for his work with Utopia.

More
Andy Summers - Synaesthesia
Review by Gary Hill

Although he’s probably best known for his work with the Police,


More
Andy Summers - Triboluminescence
Review by Gary Hill
People who turn to Andy Summers' solo works looking for music like he did in the Police probably end up confused.

More
Harvey Summers - Moon
Review by Gary Hill
If you like instrumental electronic music you are likely to enjoy this.

More
Ryan Summers - F51.01
Review by Gary Hill
This album is being billed as "ambient music." I think that's a disservice to the music here.

More
Sumo Sun - Stamina
Review by Gary Hill
These guys are getting called a prog rock band. I'm not convinced of that designation.

More
Kevin Sun - <3 Bird
Review by Gary Hill
This album is essentially a love letter to Charlie Parker's music. I have landed this under progressive rock because we always put fusion under prog.

More
Kevin Sun - The Depths of Memory
Review by Gary Hill
This album is a double CD set. It's made up of three multi-part suites.

More
Sun Temple Circus - Sun Temple Circus (Vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
I’ve never heard this act or album before. 

More
Sun Temple Circus - Sun Temple Circus
Review by Gary Hill
I previously reviewed the vinyl release of this. The CD features all of the songs from that set along with a couple bonus tracks.

More
Sundog - Insofar
Review by John Pierpoint
Sundog is a side-project by Penguin Café front-man and pianist Arthur Jeffes, teaming up with violin player Oli Langford.

More
Supertramp - Crisis? What Crisis?
Review by Gary Hill
This album might not have the huge hits that some of the other Supertramp albums do.

More
Damo Suzuki & Jelly Planet - Damo Suzuki & Jelly Planet
Review by Gary Hill
Damo Suzuki is best known for his time as the lead singer of Can. His vocal style is clearly unique.

More
Damo Suzuki's Network - Featuring Elysian Quartet - Floating Element
Review by Gary Hill
I suppose you could call this a single given that it's only one song. 

 


More
Swallows - In the Shadow of the Seven Stars
Review by Gary Hill
While this is not a slam-dunk to fit under progressive rock, I can't imagine it fitting elsewhere any better. The music is of the art rock variety, with the emphasis on the rock side of the equation.

More
Swedish Family - Vintage Prog - The Best of SF
Review by Josh Turner
Being an avid fan of the latest progressive rock, I'm torn between the classic sounds from the seventies and releases just starting to surface. Back in the day when technology was young, progressive musicians had innovative ideas and clever new instruments.
More
Swunk - Soundscapes
Review by Gary Hill
This instrumental set weaves an intriguing sonic tapestry. While it's overall fusion based, there are elements of pure progressive rock, space rock and much more.

More
Sykofant - Sykofant
Review by Gary Hill
This is a new band from Norway with their debut release. It's guitar-oriented rock that sits within the progressive rock zone.

More
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.

More
Jon Symon’s Warlock - Lady Macbeth
Review by Gary Hill
You know, the very concept of adapting Shakespeare to a concept album is very "prog rock" in itself. This definitely belongs there musically, too, though.

More
Jon Symon’s Warlock - Memories Of A White Magician (2 CD Edition)
Review by Gary Hill
I've reviewed another album from this act for this issue of Music Street Journal. This double disc set is an interesting one.

More
The Syn - Syndestructible
Review by Gary Hill
 This is a reunion album from the band called "Syn." Haven't heard of them? Well, you probably will be familiar with their bass guitarist.

More
The Syn - Live Rosfest
Review by Greg Olma
The Syn may not be a household name but many prog fans know it as a band that Chris Squire lent his talents to before forming Yes (and again for a while when the band reunited in the twenty first century).  

More
The Syn - Trustworks
Review by Diane Hill
The latest studio album from The Syn, Trustworks features a collaboration between Syn founder Steve Nardelli and the Swedish progressive rock band Moon Safari.

More
The Syn - Syndestructible (vinyl release)
Review by Gary Hill
This is a new reissue of The Syn's Syndestructible album on vinyl. I have to say that to me, this is probably the medium on which you should be listening to this set.

More
The Syn - Flowerman – Rare Blooms From The Syn
Review by Gary Hill
This is an interesting release. If you own the 2005 Syn album Original Syn, which is out of print now, you already have these songs.

More
Syndone - Odysseas
Review by Gary Hill
If you only like music with lyrics in English, you will want to sit this one out. However, that will be a big mistake.

More
Syndone - Eros & Thanatos
Review by Gary Hill
This is the latest album from the Italian prog act Syndone.

More
Syndone - Kama Sutra
Review by Gary Hill
The brand of progressive rock on offer here is so intriguing and unique. There are things that call to mind references to other acts, but as a whole, it's so fresh and original.
