Ricochet, I will ask a friend who is 'into computers' to make a kind of MP3 file for you and the team to have the opportunity to listen to Random Deeds. It's not earthshaking music but it sounds very melodic, pleasant and varied.

Ok, I will try to write subgenres to my list (but after these changes in subgenres on this site I'm not sure if I will do it a proper way):

1.Trikolon (Germany) (Symphonic Prog, The Nice-alike)
2.McPhee (Australia) (Crossover Prog)
3.Hansson & Karlsson (Sweden) (Proto-Prog)
4.Sixty Nine (Germany) (Symphonic Prog or Crossover Prog)
5.Attila (USA) (Poto-Prog)
6.Hardin & York (USA) (Jazz-Rock/Fusion or Proto-Prog)
7.Twogether (Germany) (Crossover Prog or Symphonic Prog)
8.Bodkin (England) (Heavy Prog)
9.Food Brain (Japan) (Psychedelic/Space Rock)
10.Odyssey (USA) (Proto-Prog)
11.Pesky Gee (England) (Proto-Prog)
12.Weed (England-Germany) (Crossover Prog or Heavy Prog)
13.Tyburn Tall (Germany) (Crossover Prog or Heavy Prog)
14.8 Days in April (also known as solo Kravetz's project)(Germany) (Eclectic Prog or Crossover Prog)
15.Spectrum (Australia) (Crossover Prog)
16.Spooky Tooth (England) (Heavy Prog)
17.Freedom's Children (Republic of South Africa) (Eclectic Prog or Crossover Prog)
18.Brian Auger & The Trinity (England) (Jazz-Rock or Proto-Prog)
19.Harsh Reality (England) (Proto-Prog or Heavy Prog)
20.Polyphony (USA) (Symphonic Prog)
21.Show of hands (USA) (Proto-Prog or Crossoverprog)
22.Ford Theatre (USA) (Proto-Prog)
23.Hunger (USA) (Proto-Prog)
24.Valhalla (USA) (Proto Prog or Crossoverprog)
25.Pacific Sound (Switzerland) (Crossoverprog or Eclectic Prog)
26.Pugh's Place (Netherlands) (Heavy Prog)
27.Andromeda (Germany) (Crossover Prog or Eclectic Prog)
28.P205 (Germany) (Heavy Prog)
29.Electra (Germany) (Symphonic Prog)
30.Epsilon (Germany) (Heavy Prog or Crossover Prog)
31.Faithful Breath (Germany) (Eclectic Prog)
32.Head Machine (England) (Heavy Prog)
33.Mammut (Germany) (Eclectic Prog)
34.The Norman Haines Band (England) (Heavy Prog)
35.Titanic (Norway) (Heavy Prog)
36.Yasushi Ishii (Japan) (Eclectic Prog or Crossover Prog)

But I have admit again that I'm not sure what's the real difference between Crossover Prog and Eclectic Prog or even Heavy Prog 'cause they were called just art rock before .

@Ozzy Tom: thank you for taking the time of finding a possible subgenre for all those bands. I promise I'll try to have a look at those labelled "Heavy Prog". As regards the difference between the three subgenres that used to be under AR, I think you should take a look at the definitions. After all, this is what they're here for!Wink

Just one question, though: I remember Faithful Breath as a heavy metal band, whose members got dressed up as Vikings. Is my memory playing tricks, or is there some truth to what I'm saying?

Heh, I remember that band as rather cliche heavy metal myself - signed to Mausoleum for their debut if I remember correct. Think I may have a single by them laying around.

Not the likeliest of candidates to go prog ;-)

I checked on the BNR site, and I saw I was right, down to the Viking dressing-up thingLOL... Perhaps we'd better hold this one off for the time being, and concentrate on the other bands OzzyTom suggested, whose prog credentials seem to be stronger.

Their debut album Fading Beauty seems to be widely acknowledged as prog though.

Just checked Trikolon and sounds more like Psych with Classical influences, they are very good, the Hammond is outstanding but not sure if they belonmg in Symphonic.
 
Hey man this band only released 150 albums in LP format.
 
Can't find anything but ambiguous info about Twogether and nothing about electra, now digging for Sixty Nine.

I googled P205, and found out they are a German band from the mid-Seventies. There are some tracks to be heard on last.fm, so we'll be able to listen and evaluate them. Titanic are also from the Seventies - funny thing is there are other two bands by the same name, one of which is a Christian metal band!

It can take a while - we have a huge amount of bands to get through. Send me a PM with the name of the band and I'll check up on it for you.

thanks....  I need to get back to that....  I had the bio written on your computer...  I guess I'll start over with that hahahhah

ozzy - if there is something you think should/could be added in crossover.  PM me links to any samples available.  We don't get paid for this hahhaha...  if people feel strongly to have some groups added.. they need to give us something to go on.

True, very hard to go on band names alone. Album names and group members help quite a bit.

Anybody knows any other prog-bands not included on PA?
 
 
if you send a biography, discography, some mp3 samples and a 200 word statement explaining why each of these bands are Prog and should be included they will have a very good chance of being considered! Big%20smile
