Summer festival season is already upon us. Which means there are loads of events to choose from, at least for those of us who happen to be around in Europe. Some are better, some are worse, some have longer traditions than the others, and some are more specialised than the others. So, if you are like me, heavily biased as far as prog is concerned, let me suggest you The Festival to be at this summer: Night of the Prog VIII. (by Ivor) Read more ›› |

Fair To Midland - Arrows & Anchors (2011)
If you like prog, no sorry, if you like any melodic metal then Arrows & Anchors has been waiting for you. Fair To Midland is a band who brings a perfectly large variety of styles, moods, and textures but that's not important. What's important is just how damn good it all is.

Sentenced
Routasydän, the only song Sentenced sang in Finnish, was dedicated to the band's hometown (Oulu) hockey team, Oulun Kärpät. The song caused something of a stir in Finland, as several politicians reviewed the lyrics and claimed that they contain Nazi overtones. The band has steadfastly refuted such claims.
