The The - Odyssey (A Soundtrack by THE THE) (2025)


Odyssey offers a dark, reflective mood with clean production and atmospheric touches, but it remains tied to familiar song structures. The tracks are well-constructed but predictable, relying on verse-chorus patterns rather than extended development or dynamic shifts. There are subtle melodic moments and a cohesive tone, yet the album rarely builds tension or reaches a point of emotional release. The atmosphere is stable, even static at times, resulting in a record that’s pleasant and competent but limited in scope. It’s solid mood music, but without enough progression to leave a lasting impression.




Genre: Soundtrack
Country: UK

Final Verdict: 59% (Forgettable Album)
Yearly Ranking: 704th / 841

Highlight: Live & Let Live


Made me think of:
This Mortal Coil
Swans
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Oddleaf - Where Ideal and Denial Collide (2024)

Image
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 .
