about

"So what we have is a rich and diverse five course prog banquet of classic prog influences fused with elements of folk, space rock and even a dabble or two of electronica to create a melodic and harmonic feast to please those of us whose aural palate has its long-time favourite flavours. Two instrumentals, three songs, one of which is a proper prog epic some seventeen minutes long; like they themselves say, there’s been significant steps forward in terms of composition, production and performance."
David Pearson - The Spirit of Progressive Rock.

"Stealing the Fire knows how to forge a mixture of styles into a harmonious whole in a very skillful and attractive way. The 70s runs through their veins, as evidenced by the references cited. Nevertheless, on “A Raven for a Dove” they put their own, modern twist on it, also by coloring outside the lines a bit, which leaves you wanting more. " Fred Nieuwesteeg - Progwereld

Foreign Land

Fantasy progressive rock is not something I'd ever thought of. Yet Foreign Land, especially the Foreign Land track itself, transported me straight into an unknown, magical fantasy world. Hakim Zulkufli

Inside Out
by Materialeyes

supported by 5 fans who also own “A Raven for a Dove”

Inside Out by Materialeyes is possibly one of the best prog rock albums of 2023 so far. None of your modern trash/metal type prog here, just, good old fashioned Hammond/Moog/guitar-based songs. Think Camel, Wishbone Ash, Barclay James Harvest. Great vocals too! meyes99

News From The Invisible World
by The Fierce And The Dead

supported by 5 fans who also own “A Raven for a Dove”

I didn't think I would like this record but it's so infectious in its ability to change from prog to post rock then to psychedelic and onwards into alternative metal. Such an amazing feat to introduce the saxophone and it sounds so cool, this record is outstanding. Darknight
