New (mainly) prog blog & review site

[lazland]

New album review this evening is Land of Chocolate, Your Finest Hour, an album nineteen years in the making. Worth the wait? Well, to find out, head off to www.lazland.org and click on the link.

Also, I have started a new website feature on the homepage this evening. Video of the week has been replaced by my Progzilla Radio bit, a recording of my guest feature on Graham Harfleet's Progressive Rock Show which airs on a Sunday evening. I will be posting this weekly and also keeping them in my archive section for posterity.

Enjoy.

Another couple of new release reviews this evening.

Finnish outfit Confusion Field, with the wonderfully titled Future Impact of Past Diversions, a good slab of heavy prog and, often of this parish, Mr Dave "Squids" Kerzner with his EP, Heart Land Mines - The Eye, which I think is a genuine highlight of 2023.

As ever, pop along to www.lazland.org and click on the links. Enjoy.

Quite a bit going on in www.lazland.org this evening.

I have added a new project to my Archives section, which can be accessed at the ribbon at the top of the homepage. The section is called "Progzilla Radio Slot" and each week, I will post a recording of the slot I have on Graham Harfleet's Progressive Rock Show there. The entry in this is 12th November, Galahad. The entry on the homepage is last nights, and this featured The Round Window.

There are two album reviews. A 2023 release by Babal, Let's Get Lucid, and a review of an interesting 2013 album, Aline by Cristiano Varisco. You can view both by clicking on the button on my homepage.

Tonight, I have another new album review, and this one is rather fascinating. Skogsalver with their debut album, Svarens Tid, a work describing Norse folklore. What makes it more interesting is the fact that the band are Polish.

With videos to expand on my words, head along to www.lazland.org and click on the link on the homepage. You will not regret it!

There are two new album reviews this evening. Bardic Compass, an American heavy prog outfit, with their Songs of the Caravan, a set of tales based around role-playing games.

Last, but by no means least, the magnificent Fish on Friday return with 8mm, and I share my thoughts on this.

As ever, simply click on the button links on my website. Enjoy!

The second update of the week is two more new album reviews.

We have Greek instrumental prog from Residuos Mentales and UK alt prog from Vamoosery, so a pretty eclectic mix.

As ever, simply pop along to the homepage at www.lazland.org and click on the links.

New album review this week is the sophomore work by the excellent The Round Window, Everywhere & Nowhere. If you like widescreen music and bands such as Cosmograf, this is for you.

As ever, pop along to www.lazland.org for this and lots of other meaty goodness!

The Progzilla Radio slot on Graham Harfleet's Sunday show was Inner Prospekt, and there is a recording of my words and a great track, also on the homepage. This forthcoming Sunday will feature Illuminae.

Keep up the good work! There's plenty here for people to learn about some perhaps lesser-known artists who deserve a bit of spotlight.

The artwork is really interesting. I'll check out the bandcamp link after work.

My guest spot on this week's Progressive Rock Show hosted by Graham Harfleet on Progzilla Radio at 8.00 p.m. Sunday 10th December features the opening track from Illuminae's debut album, Dark Horizons released in 2021. It is a cracker, and well worth listening to if you haven't heard it before.

I will be in the Chat Room as well, so it would be fantastic to meet as many of you as can make it. Always very warm and friendly there
