Everything you say is ignored yes, but that aside, they are under evaluation by Heavy, which takes time as these guys have to go through lots of evaluation, especially after I buried them under a heap of discarded Prog Metal bands Embarrassed

The Heavy Prog team should use the ProgFreak...

The suggestion has been resurfaced (the horrors of not using ProgFreak) so we should be on track for eval. now.

Minutemen should be considered for addition as well if Nomeansno fits the bill. And they played this stuff before NMN.

yes, exactly my point : Mars, DNA, rip rig & panic, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, James Chance and the Contortions. That was the real "prog rock" of the early eighties.

these bands meet clearly the criteria for a prog rock website, but we come back to my previous observation : post-punk is the missing post-something in PA's subgenres. But it seems that progsters have a problem with the word "punk"...

I like some proggy punk.  Fear fits that category.  NoMeansNo was only slightly proggy to my ears.  Not enough for inclusion.

Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

you really need to listen to their album 'wrong' :
 
which is pure jazz-punk, or pazz-junk like they like to call their music.
