We are thrilled to announce the special vinyl edition of neoprogsters Akenathon’s  3rd album, Crónicas Intrascendentes. Rooted in Argentina’s rich prog tradition, yet defiantly genre-crossing, Akenathon’s latest eclectic progeny marks a deep exploration of cinematic textures, dark atmospheres, and intricate arrangements. Since their formation in 2000, Akenathon has been at the forefront of Argentina’s thriving and trailblazing neoprog scene, carving a unique path that combines classical training, jazz, metal, hard rock, electronic textures, and progressive rock, in a unique fusion style. Crónicas Intrascendentes features seven tracks that balance refined eclecticism with symphonic complexity, against the background of the permeating concept of suppressed memories, alternative temporality and unobservable experiences. The album kicks off in a cinematic mode with “Queja de un Bufón,” a dynamic, dark progression that might be likened to a prog metal re-imagining of Goblin via the theatricality of Arcturus, while flowing smoothly into the symphonically oriented “Irresistible Tic”. The symphonic aura continues to encapsulate the otherwise polymorphic compositions that ensue, stretching from the tango passages of “Vincent y Los Cuervos” to the shrieking guitars of “La Muerte del Zapatero,” while the album concludes most unexpectedly with the cosmic psychedelic raga of Huellas. This special limited edition comes in 200 hand-numbered copies, 100 in black, and 100 in splatter vinyl, with a 2-page insert.

RIALZU biography

By
  RIALZU biography by Gilles Renne (Rialzu) and Alain Lebon (Soleil Zeuhl)   It was during the rebirth of the Corsican Independence movement that the only record of RIALZU appeared. RIALZU, a band whose musical adventure plunges me back into the far-away and almost ghostly universe of my youth.   RIALZU was created in the early 1970’s at the peak of an incredible musical effervescence : many bands, soon to become legends, were breaking musical taboos and adventuring onto virgin territories by mixing musical styles with incredible creativity and thus laying the new foundations of music yet to be. It was in this atmosphere that, as a teenager, I began teaching myself to play the guitar by trying to decipher the magical notes of my ‘guitar heroes’ from their albums. I met Christophe Mac Daniel, a young organist from Corsica, at a Jesuit boarding school in Avignon. Together we took our first musical steps by starting up a band (of ever-changing names) with two other...

1st VINYL REISSUE OF MIRTHRANDIR – FOR YOU THE OLD WOMEN

A much sought after artefact among savvy prog collectors, and not at all coincidentally, For You The Old Women sits comfortably among the top 10 most inventive and omni-dexterous US prog...
