  • El Cortejo de un Día Amarillo (Bubu, 1978)

     Bubu were (and still are, a a completely different line-up) one of the most intriguing bands coming from the vibrant Argentinian prog scene. Their music is always surprising, unpredictable and intricated. This two parts suite comes from their 1978 album titled “Anabelas” and fills the entire A-side of the original LP. Its nearly 20 minutes are divided in two sections: i) Danza de las Atlántides and ii) Locomotora Blues. It really is a tricky experience even for the prog-oriented ears, including dissonant passages and a great deal of instruments: there are 8 official members in the band, a guest pianist and a five members choir. 

    “Anabelas” is the only album of Bubu’s original line-up.

    Rather incredibly, each and every musician has its own space in the track’s plot, where guitars, violin, flute, sax, drums & assorted percussions, piano, bass and the choir follow each other, perform beautiful solos and perfecly melt into this fluid, rather jazzy and avantgarde piece of music. Beyond the anarchist façade of “El Cortejo” lies a strong, keenly built structure following the best eclectic prog tradition. So don’t be afraid and dive into this suite: you’ll surely find something you like!

  • New Music: Cristian Ingebrigtsen – “Shooting Stars”

    A list of Christian Ingebrigtsen’s top songs would be incomplete without “Shooting Stars”.

    By Michael Hartmann. October 23, 2024. (Edited on October 24, 10 AM).

    This week, Christian Ingebrigtsen delighted his fans with a video called Shooting Stars.

    His song has a powerful style and inspiring lyrics. It is absolutely catchy.

    Christian’s singing is intense. He conveys a beautiful message.

    The video is a masterpiece. The location, Ekebergåsen, is mesmerizing and dramatic, as it overlooks Oslo at night.

    Christian Ingebrigtsen is a Norwegian singer/songwriter, and member of the legendary pop band A1.

    He guides us through the story with his powerful message. Shooting stars surround him, adding drama and hope.

    In addition to being an excellent song, Shooting Stars has the hallmarks of an anthem worthy of winning the Eurovision.

    Hopefully this song is a taste of what we can expect from Christian’s upcoming album.

    Here it is. Enjoy!

    Here is the song:

  • Legendary Metallers Impellitteri, Announce New Album “War Machine”

    With legions of fans worldwide, IMPELLITTERI is known for exciting music, addictive riffs, and mesmerizing melodies. Today they proudly announce that a new album – ‘War Machine’ – is dropping on November 8th via Frontiers Music Srl. To celebrate this announcement, the band shares the album’s first single “Out of My Mind (Heavy Metal)” alongside a new music video available below.

    ‘War Machine’ features guitar hero Chris Impellitteri’s guitar virtuosity and lead singer Rob Rock’s vocal range powered by the incredible rhythmic foundation of bassist James Pulli, and former Slayer drummer Paul Bostaph.

    About the album, Impellitteri had this to say:

    “This new album has been an absolute thrill to make with my friends Rob Rock, James Pulli, Paul Bostaph, and our engineers Mike Plotnikoff, Jun Murakawa, and Jacob Hansen! 

    “This music expresses where we are today as a band emotionally and technically! This is probably the most sincere album we have made because we just played music that moved us emotionally without chasing any trends or other bands. We definitely played our asses off! And so, I truly hope everyone gets a chance to listen to this new album and rock with us!! I am looking forward to touring behind this album!!”

    With ‘War Machine,’ the IMPELLITTERI band presents a mind-blowing, highly energetic, and thrilling new musical adventure.


    To date, IMPELLITTERI has sold 2 million+ records worldwide and has performed on the same stages as Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Journey, and more. The band has been featured on multiple magazine covers, television, radio, and internet shows. In its glorious past, IMPELLITTERI was also featured on MTV, VH1, and Headbangers Ball.

    Chris is an iconic guitar player and a huge inspiration for many players. He has been named one of the fastest guitar players of all time by magazines like Guitar One and Guitar World, while Burrn! Japan, voted Chris as the best rock guitarist. In 2023, Impellitteri was inducted into the Heavy Metal Hall of Fame.

    With ‘War Machine’ the band delivers one of their best albums to date. From the opening riff of the title track to songs like today’s “Out Of Mind (Heavy Metal)” or “Hell On Earth”, the album is a manifest of bone-crushing riffs, hyper-technical solos, and anthemic choruses.
