Because it's rude. They're the equivalent of shouting.

Beat Circus.  One of the very few bands me and three of my sons all enjoy, which means these guys span more than 35 year's worth of musical taste.  I know that Paran Amirinazari plays in a symphony orchestra so it's a given that she's good at what she does; still, her violin playing on this album gives me chills every time I hear it.  And Brian Carpenter ranks up there with Colin Meloy among the post-Dylan generation of great American songwriters.

Houston, we may have a problem: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=5354 Wink
 
Interesting, didn't realize they had been added.  RIO/Avant?  I love these guys but would have never figured them for either ProgArchives or for that genre.  If anything I would have thought Prog Folk, but to be fair I probably have a bias in that direction.
 
Good to know though - thanks for the info!  I have a couple more reviews to write now Tongue
 

Yeah, I would have personally thought Prog Folk too based on what samples I've heard, but apparently the ones who voted thought otherwise. Tongue


I think maybe their first album fits, but their other two, especially the last one aren't really Avant, but they got the votes so I added em. Tongue I originally voted es based on that first album, but their more recent stuff has me thinking twice.Maybe the prog folk team could look them over and see? I'm sure no one would have a problem with a move. Whatever you wanna do.

I have to say, Beat Circus is a great band and I'm super addicted to their latest. Thumbs Up
