Nth Ascension, Stranger Than Fiction. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

There are times when only the truth that Progressive Rock holds in its soul is enough to fill the void left by all that flutters past and refuses to enlighten your being, shaking their heads as if avoiding the disappointment they offer and the realisation that they hold little or no substance. In the art of the Progressive, the ability to tell a continuing story is one that is lauded, hoped for, it may be Stranger Than Fiction but it is a tale that encompasses the very best of imagination, dedication and concentration, as well as being an art form in itself.

Nth Ascension, In Fine Initium. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *

Progressive Rock in all its glory, all its different shades of colour and often praise worthy offerings, is thankfully still able to command an interest of immense proportions, the old guard with their lyrical genius, of the use of the English language and their seemingly inexhaustible supply of random time signatures, they never truly went away. They were joined when the music world needed them most, by the new breed, the conquerors of the new century and in all honesty the Time has just swept by in an orgy of Progressive Heaven.

Nth Ascension, Ascension Of Kings. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

British Progressive Rock has been in such a rude state of health of late that it hardly seems a surprise when another group of musicians go down the long and ethereal note filled road. The genre has not reached the awful state of affairs that saw it nearly die a bloated thousand deaths in the 1970s, thankfully there is more than enough room in the 21st Century for well-worked, encouraging words of wisdom from the world of Prog.
