Eider Stellaire, Dead Can Dance, U Totem, Lacrymosa, Wha-Ha-Ha, After Dinner...

These all have one great albumrelease in the 80's and nothing else. Hardly a career:

I know this twenty-year period misses both 'great eras' of prog, but surely there were lots of bands whose entire output happened during that time?  More than a few, at least?

I think Sky is the only one in that list that fits the criteria. Scratch that, their debut was 1979.Embarrassed

yeah I know and that's what makes it difficult to respond to this thread.

I must admit i am not that knowledgeable about which artists finished before 2000 having started in the 80s, I thought Saga might have been a contender but they are still about too I think.

Interesting thread....

Ah, the intertestemental period of prog.

The 80s were certainly a difficult time for prog

Many prog bands still formed and were successful before the new century.

I would have said Marillion but they are still going!

Just for the record these albums from 1983 were reviewed the most favourably 

Depois Do Fim – Bacamarte

Script From A Jester’s Tear – Marillion

 

Tales From The Lush Attic – IQ

 

Crises – Mike Oldfield

The Final Cut – Pink Floyd

 

Baby Snakes – Frank Zappa

 

Peter Gabriel Plays Live – Peter Gabriel

 

Logos Live at the Dominion London – Tangerine Dream

 

90125 - Yes

 

The Text of Festival - Hawkwind Live 1970-1972 – Hawkwind

 

 Heads or Tales  - Saga

 

Art Zoyd - Les espaces inquiets

 

Title in Limbo (1983)
 
After Dinner - Glass Tube (but this is 1984)

Mansun are a favourite of mine. They only made 3 albums then decided they had enough during the recording of their 4th album ,before an internet petition by their fans got it released.
 
Attack Of The Grey Lantern has to be one of the most 'out there' debut albums.
 
Scary stuff:
 
and a great Beatles pastiche
