In 2022, we celebrate Vaughan Williams's 150th birthday, and the pinnacle of Albion Record's contribution to this important milestone is this Pan's Anniversary album, which contains five world premiere recordings.

Crypthios debuts on Cryo Chamber with the album Vestigium. This layered and intricate album of soothing and textural movements depict a post apocalyptic world that is peacefully lonely but with brooding undertones.
You must have hit your head pretty hard while escaping New City, the last remaining city of man. You hardly remember the journey on the raft that carried you across the raging sea to the shores of the graylands. Massive structures of bronze and stone swept the barren landscape. Some serving as tunnels entrances leading into underground halls, where archaic machines were still whirring and beeping in the massive network. The deep sub level labyrinth stretched endlessly, bird like creatures cried in the distance…

Palace, the brainchild of Lithuanian born Swedish vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Michael Palace, returns with a fourth album, "One 4 The Road". Once again, Michael Palace handles all the instrumentation, songwriting, and production for the effort, which showcases his love for the imagery and sounds of the glorious ‘80s. "One 4 The Road" is an unabashedly massive AOR/Melodic Rock album, as has come to be expected from this gifted Swede's output under the Palace moniker. Palace's sound can best be described as a carefully curated blend of all the greatest arena rock, AOR, and hard rock from the 80’s delivered in a tight-knit package. Unforgettable choruses, virtuosic guitars, clever lyricism, and a true passion for the retro aesthetic…Palace tickles the nostalgia nerve, while maintaining a firm foothold in the now.
