Mägo De Oz to prog-metal

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic


    I was surprised as I was surfing through the prog-folk page that the band "Mägo De Oz" was there.... I had listened to them before and, apart from some Tull-esque influences and a certain celtic folk sense, their sound is mostly dominated by metal... In fact, pretty much they base their music on power metal riffs and power chords (since their foundation they were more raw metal) and I don't think they're very representative of the prog-folk genre, while indeed they share some common grounds.. so I wanted to ask for opinions on the matter... should Mägo be moved to prog-metal?

	I tried to get them moved quite awhile ago and it was shot down.

	Haha, I didn't know they were on this website. Yes, I agree with them being a prog-metal band.
