Sweden’s Mind’s Eye are a progressive metal outfit renowned for their tight, adventurous musicianship and songwriting that resurrects the melodic flair of the 70’s and 80’s. Centered around the talents of drummer, keyboardist and principal composer Daniel Flores, the four-piece released their debut Into the Unknown in 1998 with Fredrik Grunberger on guitars. Releasing two more albums with Therion bassist Johan Niemann they consolidated their progressive hard rock sound on A Work of Art released in 2001. In 2006, the band reduced itself to a power trio with Andreas Novak on vocals, Flores and Niemann. Novak’s crystalline, emphatic performance lended itself to the high-voltage and critically acclaimed release Walking on H20 released worldwide by Lion Music. The band released A Gentleman’s Hurricane on September 14th 2007 on Lion Music.

A.C.T. is a very popular and well-known modern progressive rock band from Sweden, having released music since 1999. They have evolved into a respectable band that has had more than a decent impact; more impressive, however, it how their songwriting and style gets better with every album, their latest Silence being considered an incredible one. The band’s musical style is eclectic, but also keen to a lot of influences, some (like QUEEN, SAGA, SUPERTRAMP, MUSE, RUSH, DREAM THEATER or ELO) being largely accepted, others (like IT BITES, ZAPPA or STYX) being more particular, and some (like GENESIS, KANSAS, JETHRO TULL, TOTO or the BEATLES) being much superficial.
