I know that this topic is very similar to http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26187&PN=1 but there's difference, I mean full albums only. And thanks for that album Virgil,


I wonder why Northwind isn't listed here on PA, my first impression of them is quite good.

Zaragon from Denmark, pretty good band and album. From their bio
"The band has kindly allowed ProgArchives to offer the whole of their album for preview. Please review the album if you get the opportunity. ".

Unknown here, unknown on google, but you two knows it, so now I know it too. Is there a chance to get them to PA ?

And about Zaragon, you mean that their album is here on PA stream to listen ? If that's true, after all, why not, it's just another way how to appreciate something. Heh, weirdy funny.

You can download three full albums of a French band Chrysalide from their website. They play acoustic, guitar driven folky stuff. I like them very much, especially their last album Triptyque.

Triptyque was recorded as the last one although it's the middle part of the trilogy.

So if you are able and like this album, do them a favour and write a review about it. I'll do it too of course, for all albums that are here on PA and can be freely downloaded (just because of this reason).

They seems quite underrated, which is something I don't understand for now.

You beat me to it Dean, Blessed are the Bonds is an astounding album.

For Post metal fans there is The Morningside who have their 1st and maybe 2nd albums for downlowd, similar to Isis.

BRILLIANT thready Marty! I've already discovered two AWESOME new albums! (Blessed Are The Bonds and Jersey Tomato)

I'd LOVE to recommend Myxomatosis' album to everyone - To download it, you need a valid email address, but I can't more than recommend it. Check out their PA artist page here: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=4916

And their official site with the album:
http://myxomatosismusic.com/

As I said in the bio., they're a great prog-metal band with some Tool influence and they're incredibly interesting! Probably going to be a 5 star album for me.


Enjoy!
-Joel


Very, very few musicians have the courage and conviction to play from their hearts.
