 Topic: 2 unrelated Trios for PA....
Posted: November 15 2006 at 14:40 |
I have to trios that are very different prog bands that I think should be on PA....
1: Oysterhead: I Believe all three members of this supergroup are on PA with other bands:
Les Claypool - Primus
Trey Anastasio- Phish
Stewart Copeland- Curved Air (At Least for a while)
Their music is very creative, with lots of odd rhythms and lyrics...I'm thinking "Art Rock"
and
2. Kings X: Every bit as progressive metal as Queensryche, great band, I believe they have even toured with Queensryche & Dream Theater.....
What does everyone think? Been discussed before? Discuss now...

I think they have been suggested before, but I can't remember if they were accepted.

King's X are listed under Proposed/Debated Artists (to be discussed later) in the Master List - which means they are not a top priority, as they'd probably end up in Prog-Related. On the other hand, Oysterhead are in Art Rock, therefore likely to be moved in the course of our forthcoming cleanup of the section.

When I did a search for King's X I came across this forum subject so I decided to revisit it. I don't believe that I had the ability to change the title to King's X however.
Has King's X been re-visited or reconsidered lately as a candidate for progressive metal? Quite frankly, I was shocked  to find out that they were not already in Prog Archives. I saw that The Jelly Jam and Platypus were included (not sure the categories). After all, they are on the Inside Out Music Label, which is the ultimate in progressive rock. I love this music label and the output from almost all of its bands. I guess it is what I call commercial prog.

As far as I'm concerned Oysterhead is at best a prog-related addition

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

As I posted in November, we found Oysterhead in Art Rock and immediately moved it to Prog-Related.
As to Kings X, they have been suggested several times, and at the moment they are in the Master List, in the section for additions to be debated. I think they were rejected by the Prog Metal Team, though. If they were to be added to Prog-Related, they should be submitted for approval to the Admin Team.

Wikipedia lists King's X genres as Hard Rock, Progressive Metal, not that Wikipedia is an authority of what is and what isn't progressive.
