Mathcore/Prog Metal outfit Orchid is releasing their album “Miasma” tomorrow January 10th and it is quite the wild joyride through crackheadtown. Truthfully I really dig this band. They have the talent and energy of mathcore legends Dillinger Escape Plan, and the talent to pull off other jazzy and prog […]
The weird Progressive/Funk/Metal/Experimental band Short Attention Span Theatre bring a much needed and fresh sound to our local Western New York music scene. Music is watered down these days, and it’s cool to see weirder and more artistic bands slowly come out of the woodworks. These cats draw heavy influence […]

Anabasis is a 6 piece progressive metal band from Syracuse, which is kind of local to us Buffalonians. “The Chamber” was a really heavy, straightforward banger that was quite a cliffhanger leaving fans in a curious frenzy what was to come next. And, alas….”Of Conviction” was what was […]
The Astral Cadence released “Paradigm” during this past fall in September. They’re an instrumental progressive metal band with ambient influences.
