James LaBrie (Dream Theater) - Beautiful Shade Of Grey (2022) 48-24 Country: Canada Genre: Progressive Rock Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 48:11 Full Size: 593.81 MB JAMES LaBRIE, known internationally as the vocalist for progressive metal icons Dream Theater, embarks on uncharted waters with his fourth solo album, titled 'Beautiful Shade Of Grey'. The new endeavor sees him traverse personal maturation, loss, a myriad of complex relationships, and most importantly - LaBrie's burning passion for music. On paper, the latest studio offering from the Canadian singer first took shape shortly after the global pandemic began to emerge. But in reality, LaBrie formed a bond with his fellow collaborator, bassist Paul Logue, nearly a decade earlier. On 'Beautiful Shade of Grey', the end goal isn't creating something that meets a certain genre characterization, but rather being informed by decades of finding beautiful expression across a wide swath of musical artists, and knowing that veering away from familiar habits is a part of creative growth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE5pTnyxcT0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apZ0JTG91qs Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://www.keeplinks.org/p72/63e12e05ba498

Evergrey - A Heartless Portrait (The Orphéan Testament) (2022) 44ю1-24 Country: Sweden Genre: Progressive Metal,Power Metal Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 50:14 Full Size: 587.96 MB Swedish metal powerhouse EVERGREY returns with album number thirteen, "A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament)", a release that continues along the band's proven path of producing extremely heavy, soulful progressive heavy metal that's true to form yet fresh and inventive all at once. Yet again, EVERGREY wields its world-class musicianship and progressive sensibilities with a focus upon quality songwriting that makes sense, avoiding the pitfalls faced by many talented prog bands who succumb to self-indulgent urges. Frontman Tom S. Englund continues to lead the charge with lyrics and conceptual references to Orpheus, the figure in Greek mythology who traveled into the underworld to save his wife. The universal sense of journey and struggle is evident throughout the listening experience, which feels cinematic in scope, scraping across a myriad of emotions with a resilient spirit threaded from the first song to the last. Beyond the fact that it's heavy sonically, the Gothenburg quintet has proven itself over time because of its depth. "Ominous" is true to its name while resting upon methodical yet stuttered drumbeats. While Englund is clearly the focal point with his incredible vocals, other members prove their talent as well. Keyboardist Rikard Zander offers spellbinding synth parts on tracks like "Heartless", and drummer Jonas Ekdahl provides a solid backbone from start to finish. EVERGREY has maintained its relevance for a few reasons. The Swedes haven't shied away from their passion for everything that is heavy metal, and they keep their eyes locked upon the present and future. "A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament)" is a remarkable album that may be heralded as one of the year's peak moments for progressive metal. At the end of the day, they've earned that claim because they've created something that is forward thinking and inspirational. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKTlyXDpNaY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDX5nFwaIXY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sX-1MxycLp4 Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://hotlink.cc/folder/88cf75fd-7f8d-11ec-a2c7-0cc47ac4f47e

Symphonity - Marco Polo- The Metal Soundtrack (2022) 44.1-24 Country: Czechia Genre: Symphonic Melodic Power Metal Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 41:47 Full Size: 507.79 MB With its third full-length release, Symphonity has the attention of an audience that is hangry for something to sink its teeth into. Outside of New Horizon's Gate of the Gods and Stray Gods' Storm the Walls, there haven't been too many standout power or heavy/power metal releases rivaling the best of last year's bunch. Releases from Power Paladin, Validor, Veonity, and Palantir have all been strong but none reach the grandiosity of Marius Danielsen's Legend of Valley Doom - Part 3 or the extreme noodling of Eternity's End's Embers of War. And, mostly, this album exploits that need well. Playing a highly particularized brand of symphonic power metal that very much sounds Italian in origin-despite the band's Czech roots-Symphonity brings you, dear listener, the story of Marco Polo. Appropriately titled Marco Polo: The Metal Soundtrack, the album is as richly textured as it is heavy. And it's that latter commitment to riffs that not only keeps this ship afloat but makes for smooth sailing-sorry, it had to be done. Symphonic metal can mean many things. But Symphonity's symphonic has much more in common with Rhapsody of Fire than it does Nightwish. There's a rapidity to Symphonity's sound that feels more purely power metal than most symphonic metal bands that bridge the two sub-genres. As one might expect, the rapidity is more obvious in shorter songs such as "The Plague" and "I Found My Way Back Home" than a more epic song such as "Mongols." But regardless of song length, there's a grit to the band's approach that, to its credit, stresses riffs above all else. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=una9m1FH34o Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://hotlink.cc/cuf3kn2nbb1z/Symphonity.-.Marco.Polo-.The.Metal.Soundtrack.2022.44.1-24.rar

Accompanied by a stellar band featuring founding member Beth-Ami Heavenstone on bass, South American guitar sensation Conrado Pesinato on lead guitar, and Mark Zonder (known for his work with Warlord and Fates Warning) on drums, Bonnet masterfully delivered a thrilling "Best of" set which included songs from his stints with bands such as Rainbow, McAuley Schenker Group, Alcatrazz, Impellitteri, and of course his solo material too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsQVZtdaxqM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7HNvcy_1N4 Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://hotlink.cc/folder/d557d2b0-d420-11ec-a2c7-0cc47ac4f47e

Opeth - Sorceress (2016) 44.1-24 Country: Sweden Genre: Progressive Rock Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 01:30:16 Full Size: 985.02 MB When Opeth released Heritage in 2011, they had completed the transformation from their death metal origins through progressive death metal in the early 2000s, to full-on prog rock that celebrated their love of Camel, Jethro Tull, ELP, and more. 2014's excellent Pale Communion furthered those notions as frontman and songwriter Mikael Åkerfeldt's own vision began to emerge. Sorceress is the third installment in this phase of the band's career, and while considerably different and more exploratory than its precursors, it also references Opeth's earlier efforts like Ghost Reveries and Blackwater Park, but goes further than either in its diversity. Uncharacteristically, Åkerfeldt wrote the album quickly. He enlisted Tom Dalgety as co-producer (who also engineered and mixed) and Opeth recorded it in twelve days at Rockfield Studios in Wales. Sorceress is a madly assorted mixed bag. Åkerfeldt's inspirations this time out may still recall prog sources, but there are heavier ones, too: Black Sabbath and the Ritchie Blackmore/Jon Lord-era of Deep Purple. Opener "Persephone" has a brief nylon-string guitar sketch in waltz time that could have come from folk music antiquity. It gives way to the title track and first single. Joakim Svalberg's knotty organ riff dominates the opening moment before a crushing syncopated guitar riff joins in. This track somewhat recalls the Pale Communion sessions but is far more unhinged. The Geezer Butler-esque bassline and explosive kick drums make it the most accessible thing here -- its instrumental section keeps it firmly in prog terrain, however. "The Wilde Flowers" is a truly wild melange of musical styles. It's simultaneously heavy, hard, and spacy, with B-3, bluesy and squalling metal guitar breaks, and chorale vocals that drift in the center, weighting it as a solidly prog track. The bludgeoning guitar riff, up-mixed, swinging drums, and punishing bassline in "Chrysalis" make it a highlight; it shines with Åkerfeldt's finest vocal performance on the album (he can be notoriously lazy). There are lovely acoustic tracks here, too, such as "Will O' the Wisp," which exists in the space between Pentangle's Basket of Light and Led Zeppelin III. "The Seventh Sojourn" melds East Indian drone with North African modalism and exotic hand percussion; strings and keyboards eclipse an oud-like guitar line. It eventually dissembles, wedding near classical polyphony to subdued pop. "Strange Brew" winds through Peter Gabriel-era Genesis-esque ponderousness before a bluesy guitar line ushers it into thundering King Crimson-esque prog adorned with proto-metal riffs and vamps. "A Fleeting Glance" is a dynamic, multifaceted jam showcasing Åkerfeldt's sophisticated melodic sensibilities while touching on musical terrain from Pink Floyd and Gentle Giant to post-Village Green-era Kinks! "Era" opens with a delicate piano intro but Opeth erupts a minute later in melodic aggression. Åkerfeldt's more confident and individualized songwriting on Sorceress takes it in some dizzying directions. While it goes further musically than their two previous outings, it contains enough of the past to exist in a space that carves out terrain somewhere between Watershed and Heritage.

Cat Stevens - Tea For The Tillerman² (2020) 44.1-24 Country: UK Genre: Folk Rock, Pop Rock Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 39:23 Full Size: 422.12 MB Cat Stevens has returned and he's serving more tea. Tea For The Tillerman 2 is, as the name suggests, the second version of his 1970 folk-rock classic, Tea For The Tillerman. The album was a bit of a hangover from the sixties. All the teenagers would spend their times up in their rooms trying to decipher the notes and play the songs on acoustic guitar as they flowed one after another in a river of instrumental elegance and profound disenchantment. It was a philosophical and politically charged album, a way of announcing that he was turning his back on the modern world in a quest for spirituality. A few years later Stevens converted to Islam, adopted the name Yusuf Islam and distanced himself from the world of pop music for almost 30 years. He returned to pop in the mid-2000s and is now celebrating the anniversary of his album, as Tea For The Tillerman is now 50 years old. And Cat Stevens is 72. Rather than re-release this old classic with some slight embellishments, the singer has given himself a makeover and re-recorded the whole thing. Joined by his guitarist and producer from the time as well as a handful of new musicians, Cat Yusuf recaptures the subtle and care-free sweetness of the original version but adds fullness and a slight punch that it sometimes lacked. The new versions are, at times, rather similar to the original versions (with the same string and choir arrangements), and at other times nothing like them (like on Longer Boats featuring rapper Brother Ali with its funky bridge), but their essence remains the same and they are certainly recognisable. Above all, Cat Stevens sings better than ever before - his voice hasn't aged, and it's no longer cast in the shadow of Bob Dylan as it was on the 1970 version of Tea For The Tillerman. © Stéphane Deschamps/Qobuz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G9yW0kQsII https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_H5XuIb5WM Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://www.keeplinks.org/p72/648b538606959

The Garbage & the Flowers - Cinnamon Sea (2022) 44.1-24 Country: New Zealand Genre: Alternative,Indie Rock Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 20:26 Full Size: 223.53 MB 'Cinnamon Sea' is the perfect introduction to one of the most mysterious, ever-morphing underground bands from New Zealand. The Garbage and the Flowers make their long awaited return with another psychedelic masterpiece from the band that gave us 1997's cult dreampop gem 'Eyes Rind As If Beggars'. A hybrid fusion of the Velvets, Elephant 6 and any God-fearing stoned strummers you can think of, with a nod to Charlie Manson's bedside balladry to boot. On their return, the band hone their songcraft with tracks like 'Eye Know Who You Are', a tantalising piece of Mazzy Star on steroids, a spiralling sonic rumble, that reaches a miasmic high on every hummed chorus. It opens the Pandora's box of this release, a sleight of ear collection of five songs from this cosmology-observing Australia-based outfit. Tracks like 'Red Star' exist in a land where sound levels are destroyed by savage birds. 'On The Radio' trips into an untuned lagoon. There's a quasi-religious zeal to proceedings, a nod to Sterling Morrison's Velvet strum elsewhere, everything that would have been key to the Elephant 6 conglomerate not so long ago, maybe, if you can even imagine, My Bloody Valentine unplugged. 'Cinnamon Sea' was recorded in an abandoned courthouse in Freyerstown, a ghostly village in Victoria's Goldfields in Southeast Australia, where you're more likely to meet giant grey kangaroos bounding on its dusty main street than tottering prospectors these days. It unravels with claustrophobic glee as we traverse the structured climes of exemplary songwriting seasoned with the salt of improvisation. This from a band who previously released an album famously dubbed 'Stoned Rehearsal'. It closes with the track 'Jacob B', a melancholy tale that's a hybrid of Manson's troubled tunes and the psychedelic folk songs of Quicksilver's Dino Valente. File under: outsider music for insiders. "By some measure Wellington's most brilliant pop band, The Garbage & The Flowers are classic underground rock'n'roll with a hazy ramshackle sound pockmarked by bursts of genius."

Opeth - In Cauda Venenum (2022 Extended Edition) (2019) 44.1-24 Country: Sweden Genre: Progressive Rock Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [44,1kHz/24 bit] Time: 02:45:09 Full Size: 1.82 GB In interviews before the release of In Cauda Venenum, Mikael Akerfeldt, Opeth's vocalist, guitarist, and chief songwriter, stated that "heaviness" was an aesthetic rather than a sound, to explain why he had abandoned death metal. Beginning with 2011's Heritage, Opeth made a conscious shift toward progressive rock that has, as evidenced here, become pervasive. This set is their first to be issued in English and Swedish editions. Sonically and musically, the album contains musical and production traits already evident on Heritage and Sorceress -- and to a lesser degree, on Pale Communion -- as organs, synths, Mellotron, acoustic guitars, syncopated rhythms, strings, choirs, and key changes are crafted into the band's two-guitar-bass-drum attack. But where the previous three studio albums were rife with experimentation, In Cauda Venenum is focused on a cohesively pre-arranged whole. It may be the fourth entry in their progressive evolution, but it's their first to deliver the full realization of the band's potential. These ten songs are laden with lush textures, painstakingly crafted melodies, unapologetic gothic overtones, startling dynamics, and visceral presence. Opeth may deliberately borrow inspiration from many sources, but they aren't trying to re-create them. The band recorded at Park Studios in Stockholm with all-analog gear and a goal: "to be as epic as possible." While set-opener "The Garden of Earthly Delights" is a three-and-a-half-minute Gothic intro; the first tune proper, "Dignity," is heavy as hell, with multi-tracked wordless choral choruses, swirling organs and Mellotron, sampled spoken voices, sound effects, popping drums, and spiky lead guitars. Its intense opening section gives way to fingerpicked acoustic, gently sung lyrics, and textural atmospherics before roaring back into riff-laden hard rock. "Heart on Hand," the other advance track, commences with a guitar-and-bass riff right out of "Immigrant Song," framing the cleanest, most emotionally resonant vocals in Akerfeldt's career before swirling into instrumental chaos and transforming itself into a lilting ballad in the final third. There are brutal moments here, too, in angular jams like "Charlatan," with its overdriven, filthy bassline. "Universal Truth" alternates between folk-inflected prog and spidery hard rock. The moody classical guitar and piano intro to "The Garroter" gives way to spooky, swinging dark jazz. While the sprightly keyboard and strummed guitar vamp on "Continuum" are a sinister musical perversity, they circle toward spiraling prog metal with the vocal and rhythmic section syncopations of Yes, then unwind into moody pastoral, poly-harmonic, folk-inflected Gothic rock. Though it emerges slowly, there is a biting crackle in the sweeping majesty of closer "All Things Pass." Akerfeldt's and Fredrik Akesson's guitars spiral and slash in a loss-saturated vibe colored by swirling organ, Mellotron, and crashing tom-toms, as Opeth buoy the singer whose lyric is drenched in loss and grief. On In Cauda Venenum, Opeth have thoroughly revisioned prog rock for the 21st century. While there are referents to the past, they have merely been folded into a brand of heavy music that reflects not progressive rock's history, but Opeth's enduring, evolving image. © Thom Jurek /TiVo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FiZNuETUYM Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://hotlink.cc/folder/01e0ff19-d2d1-11ec-a2c7-0cc47ac4f47e

The Rolling Stones - Live At The El Mocambo 1977 (2022) 96-24 Country: UK Genre: Rock Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [96 kHz/24 bit] Time: 01:47:17 Full Size: 2.38 GB For 45 years, the Rolling Stones' Love You Live has been one of rock's greatest teases. About 75 percent of the double LP was recorded in arenas and stadiums during the band's 1976 tour, and presented competent but rarely exhilarating or necessary renditions of concert warhorses and deep cuts. But tucked away (on side three) were four songs cut at Toronto's tiny El Mocambo club in March 1977, when the Stones played a surprise set billed as "The Cockroaches." Playing in front of a few hundred people, and unable to hide behind props like the giant inflatable penis of the 1975 shows, the Stones had to focus on music, not spectacle. And judging from the small portion of the two El Mocambo shows heard on Love You Live, they stepped up to the job. With Mick Jagger unleashing a new style of growl, their crackling covers of Chuck Berry, Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley and Willie Dixon songs paid strutting homage to their heroes, and the recordings were so visceral that you felt as if you were in the first few rows of the 300-seat club. The distant crowd roar heard throughout most of Love You Live was a metaphor for how removed the Stones had become from the average rock fan, not to mention most mundane household chores. The El Mocambo tracks, pushed on by a clearly audible and enthralled small audience, presented them as a band that wanted to re-connect with those fans and stay relevant, just as punk rock was rearing its spiky head. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4OKNShoCx4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HFH5Ai7ZZc Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://www.keeplinks.org/p72/64c295605eb89

Florence + The Machine - Dance Fever (2022) 96-24 Country: UK Genre: Indie rock,Indie pop Format: FLAC (*tracks) Quality: Lossless [96 kHz/24 bit] Time: 47:08 Full Size: 928.21 MB Florence + The Machine's Dance Fever was recorded predominately in London over the course of the pandemic in anticipation of the worlds reopening. It conjures up what Florence missed most in the midst of lockdown -clubs, dancing at festivals, being in the whirl of movement and togetherness -and the hope of reunions to come. Its the album that brings back the very best of Florence - the festival headlining Boudicca, wielding anthems like a flaming sword. Just before the pandemic Florence had become fascinated by choreomania, a Renaissance phenomenon in which groups of people - sometimes thousands - danced wildly to the point of exhaustion, collapse and death. The image and concept of dance, and choreomania, remained central as Florence wove her own experiences of dance - a discipline she turned to in the early days of sobriety - with the folkloric elements of a moral panic from the Middle Ages. Dance Fever is an album that sees Florence at the peak of her powers, coming into a fully realised self-knowledge, poking sly fun at her own self-created persona, playing with ideas of identity, masculine and feminine, redemptive, celebratory, stepping fully into her place in the iconic pantheon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FQsRaWOIbA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui8kUKuLBaU Download from [b]HotLink[/b] https://hotlink.cc/folder/0f6b71a5-d2db-11ec-a2c7-0cc47ac4f47e
