Though those first 3 make music that's progressive enough that I could argue for their inclusion as "prog related" or "crossover prog", at least it's not any more of a stretch than Metallica.

Can anyone really just call out their nine favorite non-prog bands? That's like asking someone to name their favorite bus route.... kind of depends on where you want to go.
Anyway here's some I listen to an awful lot for different reasons (in no particular order):
The Cranberries because Dolores O'Riordan was smoking hot and this is great music to work out to;
Concrete Blonde because Johnette Napolitano was smoking hot and has one of the greatest rock voices ever, and because her songs about people she's known are one of the reasons why music matters ("Joey", "Caroline", "Tomorrow, Wendy", "Song for Kim", "Jenny (I Read)", "Maria Elena");
Heart because the Wilson sisters were smoking hot (seems to be a trend here) and because I became a man with a backdrop of "Crazy on You" and "Magic Man"  ;
CSN because Stephen Stills was smoking hot (nah, just kidding  ). Seriously, who the hell before or since has been able to put together multipart harmonies like these guys? And socially-relevant lyrics for at least two generations;
Alda Reserve. Really obscure, although I bet you've seen their one album in a cutout bin somewhere if you are even a remotely serious music collector. Issued on vinyl only in 1979 (Sire Records), these guys were the perfect marriage of post-punk, new wave and cheesy digital keyboards. Disappeared almost immediately, but thirty years later I still play this record at least once a month or so;
Cowboy Junkies are an acquired taste, but 'Whites Off Earth Now!' and 'the Trinity Session' were two of the most stunningly original country-rock records released in the 80s. Plus the best cover of "Sweet Jane" I have ever heard;
R.E.M. 'Chronic Town' changed what I thought was possible with music; 'Murmur' and 'Reckoning' would be on my list of 100 greatest albums ever;
Violent Femmes really only made one great album (their first in 1983), but all ten tracks on it were instant classics. I saw these guys in 2007 and they still put on an awesome show;
Beat Circus. One of the very few bands me and three of my sons all enjoy, which means these guys span more than 35 year's worth of musical taste. I know that Paran Amirinazari plays in a symphony orchestra so it's a given that she's good at what she does; still, her violin playing on this album gives me chills every time I hear it. And Brian Carpenter ranks up there with Colin Meloy among the post-Dylan generation of great American songwriters.

I don't know. I will try to pick a favourite of mine in different musical genres : King Sunny Adé (juju music) Willis Alan Ramsey (country) Suffocation (metal) Lady Pank (rock) Lil'Ed and The Blues Imperials (blues) The Skatalites (ska) Randy Crawford (soul) Emma Kirkby (classical) Jan Garbarek (jazz)
There are many other musical genres I like but the thread limits the list of artists/bands to 9.

Interesting, didn't realize they had been added. RIO/Avant? I love these guys but would have never figured them for either ProgArchives or for that genre. If anything I would have thought Prog Folk, but to be fair I probably have a bias in that direction.

Some of the Peter Green stuff was very good but I never understood how people could be so ecstatic about it and shun the Buckingham/Nicks stuff and call it crap. The first 3 Buckingham/Nicks albums are about as a good as straight up pop rock can get, second only to The Beatles.

Beat Circus. One of the very few bands me and three of my sons all enjoy, which means these guys span more than 35 year's worth of musical taste. I know that Paran Amirinazari plays in a symphony orchestra so it's a given that she's good at what she does; still, her violin playing on this album gives me chills every time I hear it. And Brian Carpenter ranks up there with Colin Meloy among the post-Dylan generation of great American songwriters. |
Houston, we may have a problem: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=5354 - http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=5354

Interesting, didn't realize they had been added. RIO/Avant? I love these guys but would have never figured them for either ProgArchives or for that genre. If anything I would have thought Prog Folk, but to be fair I probably have a bias in that direction.
Good to know though - thanks for the info! I have a couple more reviews to write now 
|
Yeah, I would have personally thought Prog Folk too based on what samples I've heard, but apparently the ones who voted thought otherwise. 
|
I think maybe their first album fits, but their other two, especially the last one aren't really Avant, but they got the votes so I added em. I originally voted es based on that first album, but their more recent stuff has me thinking twice.Maybe the prog folk team could look them over and see? I'm sure no one would have a problem with a move. Whatever you wanna do.
I have to say, Beat Circus is a great band and I'm super addicted to their latest.

Well, for me Furyo's 2 EPs, Sex Gang Children's 'song and legend' and Fields Of The Nephilim's 'elizium' are examples of prog gothic rock.

It just occurred to me that Metallica and Journey are both on PA! So I will substitute those two for Iced Earth and the Cure. Hopefully none of the others are listed  .
