"...
prog-metal band Mudvayne..."

"Note, this list contains some bands that at least at some point during their career played progressive metal."
Guess who is on there.

I'm in the metal circles, and I can safely say bands like System of a Down, Decapitated and Pig Destroyer are ten times more progressive than Mudvayne. And they aren't on the Archives. All good music is progressive, but that doesn't mean one bit that it belongs here.

If they were suggested many times, does it mean that there is something progressive in them, or that people want them ? And if people want them, should we include them and close both eyes if prog influences / elements aren't here ? 

Not that I know Mudvayne, just thinking in general, because of questions raised here.

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

I don't know it, but considering that this band has been suggestion twice before:
Topic: Mudvayne - Severed
Forum: Suggest New Bands and Artists
Topic: Mudvayne in the Arhives?
Forum: Suggest New Bands and Artists

and this poll was asking if it should be added:
Poll: Mudvayne
Forum: General Polls

and there have been other threads about the band at PA, I highly doubt that it is not without any PA merit.

No need to ridicule the suggestion. I'm quite familiar with them and I don't think they're progressive at all to be honest.

Yes, because they've been progressive, right?
It can't be possibly be that Mudvayne has actually been progressive, even if progressive metal has been what they described themselves as and others as well; no, no, no, there's no way, it can't be! Noooooooo!

Oh well, I guess it's my fault for actually listening to them and using Google.

I feel they should be considered prog-related due to their first two albums. There is no doubt in my mind that L.D. 50 and The End of All Things to Come are progressive metal. It's kind of like how Journey started out progressive but eventually just did pop rock.
