    Topographic Topics - September 2026
    Oct 1 2026
    After taking August off, Topographic Topics returns with plenty to talk about. We start with Steven Wilson and our first taste of Requiem for a Village. The new “Village Hall Session” immediately grabbed our attention, with Steven, Randy McStine, and Russell Holzman creating something that feels raw, energetic, and distinctly different from the meticulously polished world of The Overview. We dig into the differences between the live session and studio recording, Wilson’s stated interest in putting the human fingerprints back into music, and the wonderfully elaborate fictional world he’s already building around the album. TopoTops Sep 2026 Transcipt TopoTops Sep 2026 Transcipt From there, we turn to John Mitchell’s Lonely Robot and the upcoming An Ending. Physical copies may currently be wandering around somewhere between the UK and the United States, but first single “The River” has us very much looking forward to hearing the rest of the record. TopoTops Sep 2026 Transcipt And conveniently, John Mitchell leads us straight into Asia and the latest preview of Indigo. The more we hear from this incarnation of the band, the more remarkable it seems that Geoff Downes and company have found a way to evoke the spirit of classic Asia without simply sounding like an exercise in nostalgia. TopoTops Sep 2026 Transcipt Along the way, there are preorders, delayed shipments, a surprising Steve Howe vocal comparison, plenty of excitement about what’s coming next—and even an unexpected Dada Puzzle vinyl unboxing. It’s Topographic Topics for September 2026: Your Monthly Guide to All Things Prog.

  • Episode 186 - Dada Part 5, Dada Expanded Universe

    Episode 186 - Dada Part 5, Dada Expanded Universe
    Aug 23 2026
    Episode 186 – Dada Part 6, Dada Expanded Universe Progressive Palaver is back with a fascinating exploration of Dada's extended musical landscape. The group unpack the solo and side ventures of band members—from Butterfly Jones to 7Horse to Michael Gurley's solo albums. The episode reveals compelling discoveries: 7Horse’s breakthrough moment when their track landed in *The Wolf of Wall Street*, Phil's candid hour-long interview on the Geoff Antonio show discussing producer Ken Scott and Miles Copeland's influence, and the rare 2001 Butterfly Jones album that remains largely unavailable on streaming platforms. The hosts candidly assess how these projects, while musically solid, lack the magical chemistry of the original three-piece dynamic. They celebrate Michael Gurley's psychedelic production on *Ultrasound* and his storytelling prowess—particularly "Laika," which captures the tragic Soviet space dog's orbit with haunting precision. The takeaway? These side projects deepen appreciation for Dada's core work, though nothing quite matches the original trio performing together. What draws you to artist side projects?

  • SCS45 - Kings X in Houston, May 2026

    SCS45 - Kings X in Houston, May 2026
    Aug 17 2026
    SCS45 – King’s X in Houston TX, May 2026 It had been almost three years since Joe had seen King’s X, so when the opportunity came to catch them at Scout Bar in Houston, there really wasn’t much question about whether he was going. In this Special Concert Series episode, Joe and Paul talk through the experience of seeing a band that has become something of a known quantity live—and why that really isn’t a bad thing. The setlist hasn’t changed dramatically, there are still some frustrations with the vocal mix, and Joe may finally have to accept that he needs to find a different place to stand at the next show. But none of that changes the fact that King’s X remains an absolutely wonderful band to see. There is plenty to talk about here, including Scout Bar itself, the increasingly impressive King’s X merch operation, the usual spontaneous appreciation for Jerry Gaskill, and Doug Pinnick somehow continuing to do what he does at 75 years old. And then there is Ty Tabor, who unexpectedly showed up with a pair of Gibson Les Pauls and proceeded to produce one of the best guitar sounds Joe has ever heard from him. Ultimately, though, this episode gets at something we’ve talked about before with King’s X. There is just something incredibly positive about being in the presence of Doug, Ty and Jerry. You walk into a King’s X show already knowing a fair amount about what you're going to get—and somehow you walk out wanting to see them again anyway. So, yes, we’ll probably be back the next time they come through Texas. Hopefully Joe will stand somewhere else. May the groove be with you.
