Prog Metal. Has it come time for a new Froum thread in the main section devoted to this genre? This poll is not to descriminate or argue about the music but to find out what you all think of this idea. Now Vote!
Sorry for the spelling in advance. Need to retake typing

Why separate metal from rock?

Because it is fast becoming the most popular genre. -------------

But it`s strongly related with prog rock. I started with DT and with
prog rock and metal being separated I could never discover Yes or Rush,
it`s a good way to show younger proggers the roots of prog metal

Where's the problem? Separating forum categories would hardly mean that people stay in their own category. And the Prog Rock Lounge would be above the Prog Metal Lounge ... so it would be hard to miss new prog rock threads. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Mike" rel="nofollow">Recently listened to:

you know pretty well where the problem is; I pointed it out repeatedly.
prog metal just doesn't merit to have a category of its own. it is just
one category of prog like any other category too. period. there is
absolutely no need for such an "extrawurst" (I like that German word)

"Non-Music Prog Lounge"  But yeah I can't say that's a very good idea either unless they're not allowed in the normal section then I would vote yes.  -------------

| I dont think prog and metal need to be seperated, but the question is where the line between metal and prog-metal is, I think. Some bands definitley drift into prog, such as Iron Maiden, how can 'Rime of fthe ancient mariner' or 'Alexander the great' not be prog? It seems to be an ever thinner line between the two!!! |

Not a good idea...there'll be tantrums over who gets some of the heavier progressive rock bands on their side of the divide... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.
