OK, this is the list of recently added bands on the Prog Archives page (the last tab to the right):

"NEW ARTISTS/BANDS
Magyar Posse*
Rudess, Jordan
Lou Maxwell Taylor
Slogans
Zenobia
Gurnemanz
Erlkoenig
Credo
Wheatstone Bridge*
First Band From Outer Space*
Cotó En Pèl
Supay*
Madame Claus
Estradasphere*
Ephel Duath*
Interference Sardines*
Adramelch*
Smash
Zon
Jobson, Eddie*
Toubabou
Carpet Knights, The
Emerald
Dies Irae
Byzantium
Latest 50 additions..."

Now I wonder what happened to my bio of DRAGO MLINAREC, an important exYugoslavian artist who may loosely be included in the prog folk section. Following the new procedure I sent an email with his bio/discography and I also sent 5 mp3 samples some time ago, surely before Cesar's inclusion of SUPAY. Since I never received a feedback on this, I am not sure whether this hard work of mine ( ) has been under consideration or not! You will agree that this is not very encouriging situation for me to continue with writing bios for addition... Any hint, please...

Could there be a list of those bands which have been offered for inclusion, but weren't accepted? It would save the time of those sending bands... Or is there such list already?

Well, I'm new here (started today) and I'm still learning how to do all these things...

But, in my humble opinion, certain classic bands not yet listed like Wishbone Ash and Lindisfarne needn't any kind of introduction. They should be here since the Fiat Lux!

Ok, ok, I recognize I'm lazy (and old) but I'll try to include them, but I'll also accept any help or cöoperation from older members.

See you,

Hi, to whoever is in charge,

I sent all the information plus 5 MP3's of the band Vital Tech Tones nearly 1 month ago, I wanted to know if it is going to be added to the archives or if it haven't passed the test, and if that's the case, why not?

eriksalkeld, I have been waiting since 1 October to see addition of the bio of artist Drago Mlinarec that I submitted, after a decent amount of time spent working on it.
Here is where it ended up:
Drago Mlinarec bio addition pending

There was Useful_Idiot saying "definitely prog" and no one else seems to care even to listen to that 5 mp3 I also submitted. There is obviously a problems with Band Addmission Team, I saw many members giving up - and other collabs, like me and you who are not able to technically add a band, are this way discouraged to continue making new proposals.

I agree, what's going on with new bands submission? I sent all the details for Lone Star in September but haven't heard a thing. I've tried PMing some members of the submissions team but they don't reply. I appreciate they all have other work to do, but we should at least be advised of progress, otherwise people will give up making submissions.

I assume they have hundreds of requests so they may need time to get around them all!!

EXCELLENT!!!!
Custom Smiley Bloodrock:  Bloodrock III

                            Great hard rock band kinda in the vein of Deep Purple's first three albums and

                            older Uriah Heep.  At least as proggy as the aforementioned bands which are

                            included in the archives.

What if the band disbanded and no longer has a site? The gutarist still has a site with the discography of all of his older groups, would that be suitable? Also, since that site doesn't have a bio, would a 555 word self written bio be suitable?

Even if it were a higher quality, it has to be 128? Is it because of bandwidth that we can't send higher quality files?

Also...

Do we send the mp3s in 5 seperate letters? I tried zipping them, but gmail won't let me send more than 10 meg at a time.

People there have been a lot of different threads discussing band submissions ideas ... and the process itself has changed a number of times ... Seyo for example as a Special Collab is now able to add those bands himself ...

We do apologise for the fact that some personnel turnover caused a big traffic jam in band submissions and we do have 100s of acts to go through ...

Please submit your entries to this address [email protected]

Cheers!

Y'know, as hillarious as it is, I would really appreciate an answer - to both my questions.
