| Symph, followed closely by RPI |

| If restricted to those four choices, I choose Symphonic, otherwise I would say "Eclectic Prog" by far followed by Rio/Avant-Prog |

I love all four so I can't really decide here. ------------- RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on! |

Sir, are you implying that there are other genres?!  -------------

I'd take symphonic. it would mean losing Floyd and Hawkwind, but Genesis and Camel edge it. ------------- Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat? |

Zeuhl is by far the best music ever made. Anyone who denies this shall suffer eternally at the hands of Kreuhn Kohrmahnn unless they begin the rituals of self-purification as described by Nebehr Gudahtt. -------------   |

HAMTAI! I dropped the second A so it's original now. Oh, and RPI and Symphonic are the same thing. |

I still prefer RIO over Zeuhl, but that says a bit on how much I adore that genre as well. Yummy stuff both of'em! ------------- RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on! |

| I haven't heard enough RIO yet to fairly compare the two. |

If we move all the bands I like out of Symph, RPI and Psyche into Prog Mental then I vote Prog Mental.  ------------- What? |

Date Posted: December 08 2007 at 21:39
| I'm gonna go with Psyche and Space on this one. |

Shakes, check out Art Zoyd and Present (If you don't know'em) if you like dark, UZ-ish stuff and Wha-Ha-Ha, Begnagrad and Debile Menthol for the loonier and more wacky stuff. Art Zoyd were notably influenced by Magma btw. ------------- RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on! |

Samla too! I've only heard the (excellent) Matid, but I'm hoping to get Klossa Knapitatet for Christmas. |

Yeah, Samla are awesome. Check out Family Cracks as well (under the ZMM name) their most avant album. Klossa is actually better than Måltid, in my opinion, only that there is less vocals. ------------- RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on! |

So.....many.....suggestions! AeuHGHH!! Ok I'm going to start with Art Zoyd, they've been at the top of my list for a while, but all I can find is their later electronic stuff. Where can I find their earlier albums? |
Posted By: Bj-1
Date Posted: December 08 2007 at 22:02
Their earlier albums are really hard to find, unfortunately. Unless you are really lucky of course. I can give you some PM recommendations however ------------- RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on! |

I'm gonna have to go with prog metal.
It was hard, symphonic was a good place to start, but this whole post metal thing has really gotten me now. -------------

Thank you.
That said, I'll go with Symphonic.

Exactly what kind of punishment will I endure at his (or is it her) hands? Will I just have to listen to Kreuhn filibuster about the virtues of fake languages, specifically Kobaian, forever? Or will he force-feed me Zeuhl-themed slide-shows with my eyes held open a la "Clockwork Orange"?  -------------

| Honestly, I like them all. However, if I was forced at gun point to decide, the results would be, Symphonic, Metal, Space and Italian. |

Symphonic (RPI included) by far, then RIO.

I voted for symphonic although I have been listening to increasing amounts of heavy and metal recently. Had there been a category for folk prog, I might have have voted for that. ------------- http://www.last.fm/group/Progressive+Folk |

Obviously there are many genres of prog, but i just wanted to see what was favoured out of the ones given
of course many people probably favour other types

1 Symphonic Prog
2 Psychedelic/Space Prog

from these choices my favorite is Prog Metal since it is more versatile than the others. Interestingly it includes Symphonic Prog Metal, Space/Psychedelic Prog Metal and even Italian Prog Metal (Rhapsody, DGM, ... ).

I voted for Prog Metal, although I probably could have just as easily voted for Symphonic. -------------
