📣 ProgPower Europe update: The Dear Hunter had to cancel their European tour, incl. PPE. Sad news — but there’s a silver lining: Vanden Plas are stepping in! Last seen at PPE in 2012, their return promises a powerful show. buff.ly/74las1H

🔥NEW REVIEW - IHLO - Legacy: buff.ly/uIE4TNC
Ihlo’s Legacy is a powerful journey through dark atmospheres, soaring melodies, and bleak themes of control, decay, destruction. Echoes of prog greats shine through, but Ihlo’s voice is uniquely their own: dramatic, immersive, and deeply human.
