I just did a short piece on a French band (Saens) They are certainly worth a listen to, if you get a chance.

Since I'm new to this site I've noticed nobody is mentioning CHUCK SCHULDINER and his bands DEATH and CONTROL DENIED. If not Death, then Control denied is one of greatest prog-metal bands in 90's. For those who don't know who is Chuck Schuldiner a little introduction. He is one of godfathers of death metal and also one of greatest guitar players, songwritters and singers ever. Unfortunaly, he died in 2001 of brain cancer. Just try to listen to his work and then judge.

Death, but also Voivod and Atheist.

 Fantastic work guys, Progarchives is the site I like the most, want some more progressive bands????... I, as a South American fan of the prog movement, would like to suggest two bands form Argentina. First  "La Maquina de Hacer Pajaros", band formed in 1976 that released two albums, and second "Seru Giran", probably this one is a little bit less progressive than the first, but with some interesting stuff like their first release in 1978 and their third and fantastic album called "Bicicleta"... Both bands had Charly Garcia as a former and founder member, he's just a terrific composer, he played mainly the keyboards, and is one of the best latin musicians of America. Hope you can have it in your website

Seru Giran featured the fabulous artist Pedro Aznar if my memory serves me well. For those of you who don't know Pedro Aznar, he sang for Pat Metheny (and played some percussions) in the eighties and lead a brilliant solo career. Carlos, do you know the brazilian band Sagrado Coraçao da terra ? They play a very melodic symphonic prog rock and feature a fantastic violinist : Marcus Viana.

Also, maybe Peter Sinfeld should be listed?  He wrote the lyrics for early King Crimson as well as Emerson Lake & Palmer and has done a solo album.

Uriah Heep

Aphrodite's Child

Crazy World of Arthur Brown

Viv Stanshal & The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band

Should be included.

...and therefore Celtic Frost, Kreator and pre-Metallica Metallica, maybe even Sepultura or Venom - the epic "At War With Satan" is longer than many prog tracks!

There's no denying the talent or technical mastery (except Venom - I was joking there!), but there's no denying the metal either.

Might I be so bold as to suggest Diamond Head...

I am not sure if this the right thread for this but i would love to have a thread section for DVD's or add them to the reviews.  I have spent $20 or more for some real stinkers and spent less on some good ones but i think they are becoming so numerous as not to ignore.

 

Thank you and keep up the great work here
