TOP WAVES GENERAL - MARCH 2023
Unsurprisingly, it's a modern progressive album that is featured in this March 2023 TOP WAVES and more precisely the fifth opus to date by Periphery.
PERIPHERY V: Djent Is Not A Genre
In second place, we find the Dutch band Delain. And although now without their headliner Charlotte Wessels, Delain's return is a complete success.
DELAIN Dark Waters
And Enslaved, with its music sometimes described as progressive black, completes the podium.
