Actually i know females who have been into the prog thing since the 70s and have turned me on to a ridiculous amount of great music including VDGG, GG etc. Extreme metal on the other hand is clearly a male led style ------------- https://rateyourmusic.com/~siLLy_puPPy |

Half star ratings, genre specific albums versus genre specific artists. ------------- Ian Host of the Post-Avant Jazzcore Happy Hour on Progrock.com https://podcasts.progrock.com/post-avant-jazzcore-happy-hour/ |

Was it originally intended that way, though?
Yes for halfstar... But I'd propose more like bands belonging to more than one genre instead of genrefying their albums. |

I would love to see Styx under an actual prog sub-genre. Also, Mudvayne should be here, but sadly being associated with nu-metal seems to make people refuse to give them a fair chance.

Seriously: A star rating system for individual prog tracks to find out what all PA contributors think are the greatest prog tracks of all time....just like the albums. |

Seriously, half star ratings. Some albums really deserve a 3.5 instead of a 4 star rating, for example. ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |

Punk Prog, Hip Hop Prog, R&B Prog & Boy Band Prog sub-genres to be added as a matter of urgency. I am however against the addition of a Didgeridoo Prog sub-genre. It's the work of the devil.

| This has probably been mentioned before but I am new to this thread so I don't know. However, I would say I would like to see more than one subgenre for a band. For example if a band x played more than one style why give the impression they were only smph prog or whatever. |

That would be Jenna Jameson. She lacks variety, overuses the same pose and lacks lengthy solos for being considered porn-prog.

I'll preferably round it out to three stars, rather than elevate it to four, but I started my reviews stating it.

The "recently added albums" section on the right side of the front page for new releases needs to be a scrolling frame with AT LEAST the last 20 releases included. If you can't visit the site for a couple days that list of 5 can be here and gone several times. ------------- https://www.last.fm/user/Tapfret" rel="nofollow"> https://bandcamp.com/tapfret" rel="nofollow - Bandcamp |

More swag in the vinyard and less swoof in the canal. I would like to see Optimus Prime as the official PA mascot preferably dressed in Afghan fur, trumpet pants and a rickenbacker bass sword.
