Inspired by "In keeping secrets", turned "Good Apollo..." on. This one is even better! Very good! Imagine Mars Volta mixed with Metallica and Oceansize!!!

No problem,SS.
I always respect anyone who is enough of an adult to make a sincere apology.

Yeah, guys, excellent! I'm glad to see a lot of support. I'm trying to work out an enormous e-mail to the request line on this site that'll most definitely get Co&Ca into the ProgArchives.

21:13 is the bonus track on In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3, which is definitely a prog song.

That's a very insulting comment aimed at a fine bunch of people who do a lot of good (unpaid) work for this forum. It sounds to me like your thread was just closed because there was already one on the same subject.

Sorry I kind of goofed that up. I heard it was like Rush so I listened for some prog and stuff and found myself not liking it and finding it to have no progressive rock elements. I wasn't biased. I discovered I didn't like it and discovered no prog elements at the same time.

I don't think they are prog at all. And I dislike the band and forced myself to listen to the whole album without turning it off in disgust. I did not hear any prog elements even though I have heard that they have been compared to Rush, but, as an avid Rush fan, I cannot hear any similarities. They are not prog, imo.

Anyway, if you really doubt their prog status, I'm definitely sending in that application to yous guys. Thanks for hearing us out.

read your post... and ask yourself why you were put in your place. If you want your views taken seriously.. don't act like a troll or some punk. Make your point and avoid saying things like you did about groups like the Doors like you did, you'll find yourself quite welcome here if you do.

Perhaps you could clarify the statement in bold by PM to me Shwang. Which admins have you dealt with so far, and how did you find them "unwelcoming"? It is important that I understand why you felt compelled to make such a statement.
The site works best when there is one thread on a particular topic, rather than fragmented discussions. Closing a thread and asking you to use another one is not a slight on anyone, just a practical solution.
On the subject of C&C, they don't really fit in with the definition of Prog related (which as I've said many times is not a fall back category). That's not to say they should not be considered for other prog categories.
I look forward to hearing from you by PM Schwang.
