A Review Cap

It certainly encouraged me to find more obscure prog.

Is anyone here really surprised that there are so many unreviewed albums? There is a ton of prog, not very many people who love it enough to search out hard to find stuff and buy it unheard (and who can blame them), and new bands being added all the time. Incentives wouldn't put a big dent in the unreviewed list. It's just how it goes when a site has decided to try and catalog every prog artist in the world. The job is a little too big and always growing. It's a wonder more of us aren't going grey.

Excellent...good attitude, I often do the same. But the fact is people will and should buy what they want, not because it's unreviewed. Also, much stuff on the list is not widely available even online or at a good store.

^true.. and even though most of them are not reviewed that much, the truth remains that it is a great prog data source... i, myself, have learned a lot more than i even imagined for the prog world as many of you have (i suppose...)

in addition to this, i would recommend to create threads asking opinions about unreviewed releases, or ones that haven't got that many ratings, cause i think that even if an album is rated by eg 2 or 3 guys, i'm sure a lot more would have heard it and would gladly share their opinion..
