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.

Kristoffer Gildenlöw – Rust (2012)

The long awaited solo debut from Kristoffer Gildenlöw is finally within reach.

Kristoffer Gildenlöw has been working on this album for a long time now and finally it’s time to show the world what’s been hiding inside RUST. Kristoffer will now let us see a completely different side of his musical life.
Small, fragile, dark, melancholic and soothing is the theme as RUST takes us on a sentimental journey through memories and dreams. Although this is not a concept album in any way, there is a red line throughout the album, dealing with youth, growing old, death and finding peace in life.
