Voyager IV - Pictures At An Exhibition (2019)

Voyager IV is a band formed in 2018 in Germany. Their debut album is a rock interpretation of Mussorgskys cycle 'Pictures At An Exhibition'. Of course, they know they are not the first one doing this, so the album also contains a strong nod towards ELP's interpretation of the same cycle from 1971. Additionally, there is also an interpretation of 'Lucky Man' (ELP) and 'I talk to the wind' (King Crimson) on this album.

Leprous - Pitfalls (2019)

This weekend's featured album is the latest release of the Norwegian progressive metal band Leprous: Pitfalls (2019). It is probably their lightest and most accessible album to date and does not sound very metal-ish. I would describe the music as melodious progressive rock with great singing by Einar Solberg.
