Unitopia was a promising Australian band who played great melodic modern prog rock. After they split up they formed two new bands, United Progressive Fraternity (UPF) with Unitopia members Mark Trueack, Matt Williams, Tim Irrgang and David Hopgood, and Southern Empire with keyboardist Sean Timms. Southern Empire has released two albums so far. This weekend I am spinning their second release "Civilisation". Southern Empire sounds in general a bit heavier than UPF.
If you are familiar with the music of UPF and The Samurai of Prog, where Sean Timms also participated, then you will notice some familiar tunes.
