    2021 TOP 50 PROG ALBUMS

    Rock & Metal albums with progressive music as the core element! Judging by the overwhelming number of quality debut and comeback releases, 2021 hints to be a vintage year in the making in the realm of progressive rock & metal. Among the fifty titles that are rounding up this year's list, the listener is to discover a large palette of prog rock & metal: from by-the-book traditional to mesmerizing avant-garde, covering such a wide soundscape, while maintaining a strong progress

    2021 TOP 20 RETRO ROCK ALBUMS

    Digital Age Rock 'N Roll Heavily Rooted In The Past! Nothing dated here. Simple greatness that happens to sound as if was written and recorded over 40+ years ago. The palette here is quite impressive, ranging from soft folk-rock to full blast heavy psychedelic madness, these twenty titles are the real deal! The formative, hugely important chapter in rock music history is as farther from being written, as it ever was! So dive in and let your freak flag fly high! You dig? 20 AC

    2021 D&L Q2 Top 10 Prog Albums

    Prog has continued to rise to the occasion during the 2nd quarter of 2021. Whereas Q1 was inclined more towards the prog-roots, Q2 was rather more varied stylistically, with distinct experimental focus and more somber vibes. The quality of the music output was equally divided between veterans and debutants alike, which is in itself a measure of growth (within the genre) and expansion. Without further ado, these are my ten favorite progressive rock/metal releases of Q2 2021. O

    2021 D&L Q1 Top 10 Prog Albums

    Prog rock is riding high this year! Its longevity surpassing any other contemporary rock or metal genres, prog, luring not only new fans (while maintaining a healthy fanbase) but also keeps adding new talent to its ever-growing roster! ... and since I'm feeling a bit mischievous today, I've decided to add an additional album to the initial 10. Not an anomaly ;) It is said that number 11 is known as the number of balance, equality, duality, and kindness. We're talking prog aft

    2020 TOP 10 RETRO ROCK ALBUMS

    Digital Age Rock 'N Roll Heavily Rooted In The Past! Due to this year's tidal wave of quality releases, I've decided to expend not only the number of titles (from 5 in the previous year, to 10) but also the scope, daring to include albums that would otherwise be veiled by more aggressive offerings, in a one-size-fit-all setting. Mainly, the common denominator here is the undeniable influence that the 1970s rock music had not only on the compositions, but also on the featured
