Comet Gain - Letters to Ordinary Outsiders (2025)


Letters to Ordinary Outsiders arrives as a bright, heartfelt collection of jangle-pop anthems, stitched together like audio postcards to everyday outsiders. Its melodic warmth, gang-vocal choruses, vintage organs, and occasional brass lend the record exuberance, yet it never loses its emotional core rooted in nostalgia and defiance. The album is grounded in rich Sixties UK-influenced hooks, soul-tinged stompers, and melancholic folk rock, yet maintains a modern DIY attitude. Comet Gain’s layered vocal interplay and Patterson-esque spoken-word interludes enhance the intimacy and charm. Critics agree it stands as one of the strongest entries in their catalogue—infectiously melodic, poetically resonant, and brimming with hopeful urgency.

Oddleaf - Where Ideal and Denial Collide (2024)

Oddleaf’s debut album, Where Ideal and Denial Collide , is a fresh entry in progressive rock, combining lush, symphonic elements with retro influences from bands like Camel and Renaissance. The album, produced and recorded with exceptional attention to sonic detail, explores themes of environmentalism and human disconnection from nature, creating a rich narrative across its six tracks. Musically, the album mixes haunting flute lines, Mellotron textures, and dynamic shifts between electric and acoustic instrumentation, with standout vocals from Adeline Gurtner that are both emotive and ethereal. Tracks like “Life” and “Back in Time” balance infectious, vintage-inspired melodies with introspective lyrics, giving the album a timeless yet urgent feel. This blend of pastoral and dark themes marks Where Ideal and Denial Collide as a promising and inventive contribution to the prog scene​ The PROG Mind   Prog Rock Central   Prog Rock Central .
