Bo Hansen June 20, 2024“Our music is a bit like the weather,” considers Artur Wolski, the guitarist and keyboard player of Polish proggy art-rockers Oudeziel. “There are songs that start on a lazy morning, when the fog evaporates and the sun rises. There are elements of a summer storm that comes suddenly. We live close to the Baltic Sea […]

Teiger
Bo Hansen June 20, 2024Meet the atmospheric London trio who struggle to be pigeonholed “It is very much soundscaping and atmosphere above melody.” It is hard to believe Talie Rose Eigeland had barely played guitar or sung before launching Teiger around two years ago, given the depth and conviction of their self-titled debut album. “It’s happened very fast in […]

Myrath
Bo Hansen May 16, 2024Live performances by the Tunisian prog metallers ensure an ongoing dialogue with fans and a message of hope. Zahar Zorgati and Kevin Codfert – singer and keyboardist/producer respectively of Tunisian prog metellars Myrath – are laughing loud and long, incredulous at the cliché that bands make music for themselves and if anyone else likes it […]

Plantoid
Bo Hansen May 16, 2024It took Plantoid three moves around the UK – from Lincoln to London to Brighton – for roots to form, to find a supportive record label, for their career to blossom further.

Pallbearer
Bo Hansen May 16, 2024Celebrated doyens of progressive doom metal, Pallbearer became legendary almost immediately. Their debut album, //Sorrow And Extinction//, emerged in 2012 to widespread acclaim, as this mysterious band from Little Rock, Arkansas, skilfully blended enormous, post-Sabbath riffing with strange, crestfallen melodies and several tons of haunting atmosphere. 12 years on, Pallbearer are certified legends in the […]
