Samla Mammas Manna is top band for me. Kind of ageless albums, funny music but highly talented musicians. Änglagård, Karmakanic, November, Gösta Berlings Saga, Kebnekajse, 3rd World Electric & Flower Kings. Not forgetting Ramlösa Kvällar and Lars Hollmer

perhaps a bit surprisingly to most of you, outside Ragnarok, Kriget and Samla and if you include certain flok-prog bands like Algarnas or Kebnekaise , I'm not really that much of a 70's Swede prog buff... I tend to think Finland (and Denmark to a lesser extent) was way better during that decade. Even stuff like Myrrbein and Kultivator (both early 80's) don't do much for me
Sweden made a big difference during the 90's with their retro-prog wave (AnglaDotenBerk, Sinkadus, PLP kind of stuff), though I'm not at all into the neo-prog side of that wave (Twin Age, Valinor, etc..) and dislike the Kaipa/TFK stuff.
But out of Scandinavia, nowadays, Norway is miles ahead of the rest of the region

" I'am more of the ancient guys.Bjorn J:son Lindh really moves me (I love his flute playing, and the second album is so experimental). The other would be Samla Mammas Manna - remeber, joy is contagious! (best album liner note ever)."

I need to listen to Bjorn J:son Lindhn, thanks for the recommendation..
Beardfish is more the style of Samla Mammas Manna, you know the sarcastic, funny style.. not so dense, If you listen to them please let me know your opinion, I recommend any of the Sleep In Trafic albums.. Pt2 I think is better though

I'am more of the ancient guys. Bjorn J:son Lindh really moves me (I love his flute playing, and the second album is so experimental). The other would be Samla Mammas Manna - remeber, joy is contagious! (best album liner note ever). About the new guys, I've only listen to Anglagard and sadly I never managed to finish a album. Their sound is too dense (not in a good way) for me. But its a matter of taste, I'am not criticizing their quality.

What do you think about swedish prog like; Anglagard, Beardfish, Anekdoten, Karmakanic, The Flower Kings, etc... And what is your favorite swedish prog band, I will have to go with Beardfish.. their music I think is so fresh, I usually love their lyrics, and all the instruments (including voice) have a really peculiar style..
