I think they would fit well here, perhaps as prog related, possibly as prog metal. I suspect our prog metal team will already have considered them.

I guess I was also a little confused as how Masterplan got on here but their parent band didn't. Ive always found helloween to have more progressive qualities than Masterplan, but neither is truly prog.

I'm sure this has been brought up before, and Im not going to argue any responces I get, but I've always been surprised I've never been able to find Helloween on this website, even under prog-related. They've always been great storytellers, especially in their Keeper Of The Seven Keys series. They've got a number of longer epics like "Halloween" and "Occasion Avenue" or even "I Believe", and they usually find room to put some kind of an epic (if sometimes only 7-minutes long) on every album.

Anyways, this is not a thread trying to get them on the site (but I wouldn't complain if it was considered), just wondering what the verdict on them was if this topic has ever come up before.
