If it's not jazz, classical, or pop hits, it's metal.  Too many categories can be oh so confusing.

It hasn't changed. I still find my prog in Paris in Death Metal boxes. Big smile

Ha ha.  So I'm not alone.  I forgot that I also saw Spock's Beard in there. This is an independent store though, so I can only assume the inclusion was intentional rather than ignorance, which I can see more likely in a megastore.  
More heavy prog, please!

Years ago, at the Virgin Megastore in Paris, I found both Transatlantic and Spock's Beard in the Metal section, so I wouldn't be too surprised if also Camel found their way thereSmile...

I went to the local metal music shop here in Vancouver and saw much of what one would expect; everything from old school Iron maiden, Black Sabbath, Burzum, Cinderella and pretty much all metal subgenres including a lot of prog metal.   I picked up TesseracT's Altered State, Pain of Salvation's Linoleum, and Riverside's Rapid Eye Movement.  The store manager was playing something from Kamelot, I'm not sure which recording, that sounded pretty good as well.

The strange part of this store was the presence of nonmetal prog, some hidden, some not.  The Jethro Tull Box set placed in a high visibility spot and bands such as Marillion, Transatlantic and Camel mixed in with the metal, nevermind the advertisement for the Magma show last month.   I'm not complaining, as there are few independent music stores that sell CDs I like, but kind of odd!
More heavy prog, please!
