MYON – Terra Nova (2024) *HQ*

Hailing from Finland, MYON has been releasing melodic progressive pop/rock for a quarter of a century. The band has been on hiatus for a while, with founder, songwriter and keyboardist Mika Pohjola busy producing other artists.
With renewed energy, MYON recorded their new CD “Terra Nova” during the last two years, taking the time to polish new songs and to ensure high production values. Overall their musical style is European melodic rock with a progressive touch, compared to Saga ‘On the Loose’ era, plenty of guitar and keyboard ‘cat and mouse’ antics.
This band work on many levels, with fine arrangements, interesting twists and melody as a rule. A clean sound, elegant guitars, varied keyboards and a classy vocalist is what you will find in Myon’s “Terra Nova”.

All tracks were recorded, mixed and mastered at legendary Soundmix studios in Oulu, Finland by Pohjola. He has done a remarkable job giving these songs a crystal clear, crisp and deep sound.
This new material from Myon has a very fresh approach to the ever-changing face of rock music. They definitely are able to compete with most bands that are regarded as leaders of this scene, without sounding like a clone of anyone.
Another fine example for very good music coming from Finland.
