Album Reviews
‘Aphelion’ is a very nice prog rock album from Norwegian band Leprous with some catchy melodies, beats and grooves you won’t forget easily.
“Pitfalls” is the album that nobody expected from Leprous. Alternative and progressive mixed as one topped with beautiful emotional melodies.
With Malina , Norwegian progrockers Leprous delivers once again an outstanding piece of fine complex progressive music
