Progressive pop releases, week 37

This week in progressive pop, revisitations and retrospectives take center stage, from The Rasmus reimagining Alphaville’s 'Forever Young' to the 50th anniversary of Electric Light Orchestra’s 'A New World Record'. New releases and archival projects highlight enduring legacies, including a boxset of 10cc’s early UK recordings and a documentary honoring Rush’s Neil Peart. Artists like Yes, Genesis, and Julia Holter continue to reflect on creative journeys, personal milestones, and the evolving nature of musical identity.
