'21st Century Session' - Post Your Requests Here !
5^th Mar, 2005 at 6:38am

All,

As has already been mentioned in the '24hr Session Ideas' thread, there will be a 'session' totally dedicated to Progressive Rock released from the year 2000 AD onwards ... Grin

This will be held here on 'Stellar Attraction' on Friday 25th March @ 9:00pm.

There seems to be strong demand for this 'session'. Feel free to post any requests and suggestions to the programme here.

Dee

Absolutely stunning. If this isn't progessive rock then I don't know what is. This is the second album from them following up 2003's 'De-loused in the Comatorium'. Anything by this band must be included in the session.

Absolutely !! I already have their first album 'De-Loused In The Comatorium' and will be sure to get hold of a copy of their latest release.

Consider 'Mars Volta' added. Grin

I've heard bits of Radiohead, Dream Theater and Ozric Tentacles but would like to hear lots more, the rest I must leave to your excellent taste. ...m...

Some I already have and some I have heard but don't (yet !) have. I'm curious to hear some post-2000 'IQ' and 'Neal Morse' ...

IQ's last album 'Dark Matter' from last year has had some very favourable reviews, although I haven't heard all of it myself, only one track.

I heard a couple of tracks last night from an album called ' The Gentle Art of Firewalking' (2002) by a band called 'The Dark Aether Project'. It's well worth adding some to the session. I have added it to my rapidly growing list of must buy CD's on the strength of what I've heard.
I found this so you can have a listen Grin

Just had a listen to a couple of the clips and they sound very good. More of a traditional sounding prog band without being progressive themselves if you know what I mean. Still good though.

Judging by the reviews I've found it sounds as if they are heavily influenced by King Crimson and Pink Floyd. One track was described as sounding like Yes fronted by Roger Daltery!!! Can't wait to hear that one. ???
