Throw in my vote (if that's what we're doing here) for putting prog metal in its own lounge.  I think it is more in its own field than any other of the subgenres and fewer people make the jump between.

Thanks...I hope others will voice their agreement to this idea.

And again, if necessary, I am willing to volunteer to help sort out the prog-metal threads because I think I know a fair amount about which bands fall into the genre.

Krautrock is more in its own field I think, or maybe Zeuhl.

I'm a newbie, and delighted to have found this site. But as I was browsing
through the artists, I was intrigued not only by what was new to me, but
by what is missing. For example: Greg Howe. Does Howe fall outside the
"prog" definition, for some reason? If so, by what criteria? I'm not
complaining -- just seeking clarification. Of more concern is the absence
of early contributors of considerable importance (IMO). Steve Marcus/
Count's Rock Band is an immediately obvious example. Harvel Mandel is
another. I know that Harvey's early instrumental stuff -- "The Snake,"
"Shangrenade," "Baby Batter" -- has been reissued in recent years in the
UK, so it's not like he's vanished from consciousness.
I can have double standards, and you can't
