Actually i am a new member on this forum and it has not been a while since i discovered this site after all.Great work and great piece of music i must say.I always thought that prog-fans were open minded and i'm glad to say that mostly this is true.I like different music styles such as techno/trance/alternative/prog rock/jazz fusion/brit pop and some metal stuff too.You might think that this is weird .Yeah it sounded weird in my head too when i realised that.So don't be dissapointed if i find Eat Static and Rush equally influencial(don't get me wrong,i mean in their own music aereas) ..!I've warned you.. It's all music after all... Cheers Angeldust |

Hey, don't be sorry about liking different kinds of music. I personally like to stick to prog, but I (and probably most people in here ) can respect the fact that some people are very open- minded about the kind of music they listen to. Anyway, welcome to prog archives and have fun ------------- "Can't you feel our souls ignite? Shedding ever-changing colors,in the darkness of the fading night..." -Genesis |

lately my musical tastes range from hard-prog to prog-folk (with
almost subgenres in the middle)... a bit narrow-minded, eh? Maybe one of these days I'll go home with the unstoppable urge to spin that Gerry Rafferty compilation that I used to love when I was in my early teens... ok, all this just to say that I find nothing weird in you! Welcome to this site! P.s.: did you take your nickname from Faith No More? I really loved that album I've just seen your profile, happy birthday! |

Indeed. Don't be sorry for liking other music. Currently, about a year after discovering Prog, I mainly hear Prog. Before then, even when I knew Prog but wasn't really into it, I heard a bit Rap combined with Hip-Hop, Trance and Linkin-Park copy like bands. Currently I still hear stuff as Alternative, rock, hard rock and stuff like that. Lately I also tried some Metal, there were albums of which I really liked, but I barely hear Metal anymore. I prefere Prog Metal much better. Perhaps you hear all these kinds of genres now, but it can narrow to Prog ONLY in couple of months. That's what I think happened with me. It does not mean other kinds of music sounds terrible to my ears, it just says I'm not really into anything other than Prog atm. |
