First review at FORGOTTEN SCROLL webzine
Yes, you are reading it correctly: Thought Chamber, the mighty prog metallers from San Francisco, California, are back with a new album.
The spiritual child of composer & guitarist Michael Harris has already offered two pieces of progressive excellence: the debut album Angular Perceptions (released in 2007), and their second full-length Psykerion (released in 2013).
Their third album, Myst of Lyriad, is here. It was already released in digital format through Lion Music on August 22nd, 2025. The album will be released on CD in two editions. The US edition will be released on Michael Harris’ own label, Imminent Music Force. The European edition will be released by Arkeyn Steel Records and will include three bonus tracks not available on the digital and US CD editions.
The core band remains the same as on Thought Chamber’s previous Psykerion record, featuring composer & guitarist Michael Harris (Darkology, ex-Arch Rival, ex-Vitalij Kuprij, solo artist for 35+ years – Michael has written 20 albums of globally released music); Bill Jenkins on keyboards (also in Enchant); Mike Haid on drums (formerly of David Chastain & Michael Harris solo records); and Jeff Plant on bass (Jimi Tunnell; Vast Conduit: Marcelo Berestovoy).
The album features multiple lead vocalists, including Travis Wills (Crimson Glory, Infidel Rising), Devon Graves (Psychotic Waltz), and John Jaycee Cuijpers (Trans-Siberian Orchestra).
Musically, the album explores the beautiful dreamscapes of melody and complexity that are well known to all Thought Chamber fans worldwide. A mystical journey from progressive rock to progressive metal — not to be missed!
