You are right El Bothy, shameless self thread promotion last night  , I couldn't resist the temptation when I noticed how many threads I started in the past in the Prog Music Lounge  I will not repeat it, it remains an one-shot joke!
About Perpetuum Karma by Nexus, Memowakeman, it will grow with every listening session. Nonetheless, I notice that the one symphomaniac is absolutely delighted about this album and the other proghead is a bit bored about it so it seems to evoke quite mixed feelings.

Talking about South American music, let me tell you taht today i had my first experience with Perpettum Karma, my first impression was good, but not as good as i thought, i found it boring in several moments, but full of great music in other, not a masterpiece definitely, but obviously i have to listen to it more times.

You're all missing one heck of a band: FRAGIL, from Peru.
It's one of those pop prog bands, not saying it is worse or anything, it's excellent music, just don't expect any virtuosism, ultra fast and intricate solos or riffs, great epics, experiments or things like that, it's just always very enjoying. Check out Av. Larco (excellent album but poor sound production), Cuento Real (good songs, good production, good everything) and Sorpresa del Tiempo (a live album that includes almost all songs from Av. Larco, this time with a totally superior sound quality).

Autenticidad, actitud, pluralidad, espiritu e inteligencia, si es prog bien, si no, tambien.

Did you listen Vesania from Brazil? I just listened last days and I really loved it!
I don't like metal, but this (symphonic) album with a touch of metal is really really good!!!
I will write a review for their unique album... coming soon...

This evening I listened to the CD Mixilodio by Chilean band Ergo Sum, this is an excellent compilation, very dynamic and adventurous prog with hints from Frank Zappa to Jethro Tull, to be discovered

Samir, we have a foster child in Paraguay, his name is Elias, he is 15, he loves football, guitar and drawing, just like his foster parent in Holland 
Evolucion is great but I don't know bands from Paraguay, I am sure fellow collaborator Cesar Inca Mendoza can help you |

I don't know that I'd say that the region is set to become the prog leader, but with the internet's wide distribution, it's given acts from that area a better opportunity for exposure. Especially in a scene like prog that tends to rely more on community for info & references, i.e. word of mouth.

I am very glad with the good words about overlooked Chilean band Angulart because they have a very adventurous and compelling sound with inspired vocals and lots of great musical ideas  I will contact their manager how about Angulart at this moment, I was told by him that their singer left last year.

Love Exsimio. I have their Carbono 14 and will get their s/t soon as well.
Lately got my hands on another Chilean band which Erik got me into (and had an interview with them) - Angulart.
Had a couple of listens and so far -

Yeah, Carbono 14 is excellent!

Is Latin-America becoming the new prog leader?
