For those who don't know who is Chuck Schuldiner a little introduction. He is one of godfathers of death metal and also one of greatest guitar players, songwritters and singers ever. Unfortunaly, he died in 2001 of brain cancer. Just try to listen to his work and then judge.

Death, but also Voivod and Atheist.

...and therefore Celtic Frost, Kreator and pre-Metallica Metallica, maybe even Sepultura or Venom - the epic "At War With Satan" is longer than many prog tracks!

There's no denying the talent or technical mastery (except Venom - I was joking there!), but there's no denying the metal either.

Might I be so bold as to suggest Diamond Head...

Uriah Heep

Aphrodite's Child

Crazy World of Arthur Brown

Viv Stanshal & The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band

Should be included.

Also, maybe Peter Sinfeld should be listed?  He wrote the lyrics for early King Crimson as well as Emerson Lake & Palmer and has done a solo album.

I, as a South American fan of the prog movement, would like to suggest two bands form Argentina. First  "La Maquina de Hacer Pajaros", band formed in 1976 that released two albums, and second "Seru Giran", probably this one is a little bit less progressive than the first, but with some interesting stuff like their first release in 1978 and their third and fantastic album called "Bicicleta"... Both bands had Charly Garcia as a former and founder member, he's just a terrific composer, he played mainly the keyboards, and is one of the best latin musicians of America. Hope you can have it in your website

Seru Giran featured the fabulous artist Pedro Aznar if my memory serves me well. For those of you who don't know Pedro Aznar, he sang for Pat Metheny (and played some percussions) in the eighties and lead a brilliant solo career. Carlos, do you know the brazilian band Sagrado Coraçao da terra ? They play a very melodic symphonic prog rock and feature a fantastic violinist : Marcus Viana.

I just did a short piece on a French band (Saens) They are certainly worth a listen to, if you get a chance.

Great web site, congratulations!

I'd love to see Uriah Heep included. One of the finest bands Britain has ever produced, and of course still going today. "July morning" from Look at yourself probably represents my introduction to Prog.

It would be great if you could add an mp3 of Supersister. I think they're great and people should know their music! A great song would be "She Was Naked". But I understand you're busy writing new discographies and biographies...

I'm looking forward to Frank Zappa!

1st thank for the recommendations, we will take them into considerations in the next wave of NEW BAND ADDED

 

Conerning the mp3 ... we want to take the risk to help visitors discover new music. And your opinions on how mp3 is helping you to discover great music ... is important .. in the case we were getting in trouble...

Thanks
Prog On !
