Progressive rock, also known as prog rock or prog, is a rock music subgenre that originated in the United Kingdom, with further developments in Germany, Italy, and France, throughout the mid-to-late 1960s and 1970s. It developed from psychedelic rock and originated, similarly to art rock, as an attempt to give greater artistic weight and credibility to rock music.

Sylvium – The Gift Of Anxiety (2013)

FrontSylvium is characterised by rock and ambient oriented songs that show uncompromising character but are still accessible for a broader audience. The band prefers not to be limited by labels like symphonic rock or progressive metal but strive to create their own sound by being versatile. The most important thing is that they use the technique that is at hand to get the maximum sound experience. “An instrumental experience that emphasizes emotions rather than the eternal quest for a perfect pop song.”

Violent Silence – A Broken Truce 2013

Violent Silence - A Broken TruceCountry: Sweden
Sub Genre: Symphonic
Label: Progress Records
Release date: July, 2013

The new Violent Silence album is called A Broken Truce and will be the most epic thing they’ve done so far song-wise. It will consist of four elaborate, complex and dynamic tracks that all stretch past the 10-minute mark. All tracks have a different feel to them. Compared to earlier albums, A Broken Truce is slightly more melodic, and not quite as fast and heavy as some of their earlier material. Although the heavy element is still there, it’s just less pronounced this time around, just to make things a bit more interesting for everybody.
