I'm sure this has been done, but it's more aimed at newer members and prog fans anyway: What's your favorite band(s) that you never heard of before finding them on this site?

Best one from this site specifically? Wigwam (the Fairyport album specifically) They got mentioned to me by a buddy who had lived in Finland for a while so I did a search for them on the internet which led me here. I read the review and it sounded cool, so I got it online and absolutely loved it. Been coming back ever since! ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Nipsey88/?chartstyle=myspace02" rel="nofollow">

For me it's more a case of having heard of the band, but not having
heard anything by them until I found the mp3s on this site. The
main ones for me are Gentle Giant, The Mars Volta, Van der Graaf
Generator and Peter Hammill (actually I had heard VdGG before
discovering this site, but wasn't really impressed by them until I
heard some of the mp3s).

Knew of Yes, but couldnt get into jon andersons voice till now (must be age). Loved kraut rock, and immediately loved Amon Duul II, Can, and Exmagma. Other wonders so far discoved include: Van Der Graff Generator, Gentle Giant, Genesis (thou i already had the 'trespas' album), Mogwai, and Sigor Ros (especially their () album...wow). Also gained a new apreciation for Weather Report. Have only explored a few 'subgenures' so far... am sure many more are to come.

I'm on a listening phase which include some new material of bands which I discovered here. A revelation was THE MARS VOLTA with "Frances the mute". Other albums I got, but I didn't listen much are OZRIC TENTACLES, SIGUR ROS, THE FLOWER KINGS,all of this seems to be tasty! Less convincing that is something of my taste are PENDRAGON, DREAM THEATERS, but I'll need listening carefull. Then I knew LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT, PORCUPINE TREE (I got "In Absentia" because I was amazed by the Sound of Muzak song!), TOOL (maybe a bit out of genre IMO, but good music), beside that A PERFECT CIRCLE. I didn't really find so much interesting RADIOHEAD, "Bends".

the first couple of bands represent my most fortunate finds, after Focus the list is rather at random... Van der Graaf Generator!!!! and not so favorites: ------------- Listen to Turkish psych/prog; you won't regret: Baris Manco,Erkin Koray,Cem Karaca,Mogollar,3 Hürel,Selda,Edip Akbayram,Fikret Kizilok,Ersen (and Dadaslar) (but stick with the '70's, and 'early 80's!) |

Before I came to the site the only thing I knew about prog was that Opeth was prog metal and that I liked them  Then I went crazy and downloaded everything I could find on this site, which was a lot more than just prog metal...so if I listed all of the great bands that I've found on here it would take up a couple pages. My favs, KC VdGG Echolyn Camel Gentle Giant Anekdoten The Mars Volta SGM etc. etc. etc.  -------------
