I had the opposite problem. I struggled to narrow it down to just 12. I could've listed 12 favourites just from Denmark alone.

Alphabetically. Note that my knowledge of Scandinavian prog is minimal, with most of these artists being Finnish

I take it as Bands means bands only and not artists. Maybe something like this (no order):
Piirpauke (Fin) Oriental Wind (Swe) Ragnarök Swe) Haikara (Fin) Elephant9 (Nor) Dungen (Swe) Kultivator (Swe) Ævestaden (Nor/Swe) Sukellusvene (Fin) Jordsjø (Nor) Motorpsycho (Nor) Morte Macabre (Swe) No danes, but:

There was no order to my list. But if I hadn't taken "Bands" literally, they are my Nordic number one and two:) |
