Anciients - Heart of Oak (Season of Mist)

A tantalising debut release from Canadian stoner prog-metal rockers, Anciients. With one foot in the door of metal rock, they're in heady company.
Release Date: 
16 Apr 2013 (All day)

Los Angeles art metal band Otep released their sixth and quite possibly last album on Victory Records on January 22.

Baroness - Yellow and Green (Relapse Records)

You can't compare apples with oranges (or Reds or Blues)...
Release Date: 
16 Jul 2012 - 11:30pm

The word that flashes in my mind like neon dogs balls is 'harmony' - not that the Red Album (2007) or the Blue Record (2009) lacked harmony; it's just that Yellow and Green

Rush - Clockwork Angels (Roadrunner)

Old prog rockers never die... they just get heavier!
