A single word on Galahad's The Long Goodbye. Incredible! I got to listen to the entire album over the weekend and the band have raised their levels of composition and performing ten fold. Finally, they are on par with their great contemporaries like Marillion and IQ. Mr. Laz has written a review that really describes all of the highpoints of this great work. Fantastic!

New album review this evening is Land of Chocolate, Your Finest Hour, an album nineteen years in the making. Worth the wait? Well, to find out, head off to www.lazland.org and click on the link. Also, I have started a new website feature on the homepage this evening. Video of the week has been replaced by my Progzilla Radio bit, a recording of my guest feature on Graham Harfleet's Progressive Rock Show which airs on a Sunday evening. I will be posting this weekly and also keeping them in my archive section for posterity. Enjoy.

 ) , so I only had a chance to listen to the title track of "The Long Goodbye" on the new Galahad video. Stupendous, both musically and lyrically! Another autobuy for me. I will get back with more when I can catch a break. Cheers.

Well, after our little sojourn, we at Lazland are back in the saddle.
A bit of a gentle start to proceedings, with a new Video of the week, which is a stunning video of Heilung live. The first new album review of the week is a very interesting release by American outfit, Advent Horizon entitled A Cell To Call Home. Some very strong material on this one. More to follow in the next week as I start to catch up on a backlog.

It is on my wishlist to get, but no review copy provided, so this one will have to wait a wee bit.

For all the hard work you put into the site, you might need 10 months off. Have a blast on your vacation my friend~!

Enjoy the break!
How about a review of the new Marco Minnemann album, if possible?

It is incredible that this thread has now attracted almost 30,000 views since I started it last year. What's more, now followers on Facebook has exceeded 100. Thank you to all of you for your support. I genuinely appreciate it.
There are a few updates this evening. Video of the Week is by Cyan ahead of their November release, Pictures From The Other Side. There are two album reviews. The second part of Planetary Overload by the wonderful United Progressive Fraternity. Then, a wonderful pastoral album by Brendan Perkins, Galatea's Holiday. Both of them are a joy and recommended. I am going offline now for ten days. Mrs Laz & I are heading off for a well deserved break which will include a digital detox - no internet. For those of you who are burglars, my six foot six son is looking after the gaff. Don't mess with him - I wouldn't! I will be back next week - loads more great new music to come.

Hi Steve,
I appreciate the review on The Harmony Codex and the videos. I can honesty say that it's not my cup of tea, but Wilson does push himself, if nothing else. But I can see others enjoying it. Cheers.

The Emerald Dawn are pretty much un-tagable as far as i'm concerned; their sound is so diverse and constantly changing.. thats why i find them so intriguing and beguiling..
Sorry to jump in Steve, Keep up the good work!

You make it sound as if being labelled a Neo Prog band is a bad thing.

They are a great band, Paul, but they are most certainly not “neo prog”. In fact, the band themselves regard the tag as faintly ridiculous, at best.
