Listing by country

I'm glad there's an ongoing issue about prog in various countries again.

Since I started this thread, a few things changed...we have now the represantitives from China and Moldova...

I'm however, surprised we still have any prog bands from some countries...perhaps I have high expectations, but having a prog band from every country from Europe and the Americas shouldn't be an impossible task.

I have expectations for Africa and Asia too.I'm surprised we dont' have any (South) Korean artists yet. As for the middle-eastern countries, if there's one rock/metal band, there will be another. in fact, for many non-developed countries I'm expecting to find some for of pop/rock/metal blend with local folk musics in an unconventional way.

You're too soft a guy, Dean.  Nail them! 

In the meantime one Moldavian bands was added 

I am glad it is sticked! 

This list would be better when stickied ;-) anyone wants to support this suggestion ?

 Clarke, you did a wonderful job with this country listing. It is something I have been waiting to see since I joined the PA.... I will bookmark it in my browser, but would be also useful to have it somewhere integrated on the home page categorisation links...

Thank you for this. Top albums finder is neat, but a lot of albums from my country have no ratings. So they're not here.

Tell us about some interesting results, something like Vatican prog (probably death metal band :) )

By the way hello, I'm here (did message disappeared?)

BTW2 - I suggest sticky

Don't expect to see North Korean prog anytime soon. 

I've made a chart of artists distribution by country here, to see which countries have the most (or the least) artists listed on Prog Archives. It's here.

The list of countries that have no "prog representative" on PA is quite long...I've made one, but deleted it by accident. However, I'm quite surprised that countries like Moldova, Liechtenstein, San Marino and Montenegro have no bands here, some Latin-American countries, such are Honduras and Paraguay, then Korea, Singapore, China, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Iran, then Egypt and Nigeria. Perhaps my expectations are set a bit too high, but I don't think so.

Thanks Dean for the Shri Lanka prog band link!

I'll try to delve deeper into "unknown" prog territories and find some artists and propose them for inclusion. That should be fun.

Bob, could you make this topic sticky? You already said you did, but I don't see the "needle icon"
