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.

Earthship – Iron Chest (2012)

Over the last winter, Earthship immersed at Hidden Planet Studio one more time to rehearse and record their second album „Iron Chest“.The album title stands for the soul of every single being on this planet, vulnerable and exposed to the cruel force of life, yet withstanding its lashes with iron rigor… and only opening up with the right key in the end… „Iron Chest“ is a vile beast of an album, spitting iron nails in every direction, yet rich with groove and soul. EARTHSHIP’s abrasive, heavy custom sound has grown and reached a new level of intensity.

VENTURIA – DAWN OF A NEW ERA 2012

NOW!YES YES…

French metal band Venturia returns with their third album, Dawn of a New Era, which could refer to their becoming a four piece act. Vocalist Marc Ferreira has been gone since 2009, with founder and guitarist Charly Sahona taking over to compliment Lydie Lazulli’s leads.

Musically, however, this album could have been called Hybrid II, though it has a more commercial melodic metal feel than progressive metal. Venturia continues to pump in the sequences and synths, familiar to the previous work. Secret Dream, A New Dawn Rising, What We’re Here For, and What If are all examples of Venturia mixing metal with a groove equally suitable for a European rave session or a heavy metal arena.
