What bands do you think should be here but are not? Glass Harp - an art rock band from 1970 and maybe ELO, their earlier stuff is at least "Prog Related" ------------- cmidkiff |

What is doing Muse in the archives??? This must be a joke... Early Metallica and Iron Maiden deserve being include in prog-related, or proto-prog metal, or prog metal, or the subgenre you want, but include them it's a prog's duty. Their influence in prog metal bands is obvious. ------------- We were always be much human than we whish to be. |

Muse are a damn sight more prog than Rush and noone questions Rush's right to be here. But Iron Maiden? Ridiculous. And don't even consider Wishbone Ash - I'm one of their biggest fans and would love to give Argus et al 5* - but they ain't prog. Brilliant, but not prog. |

What about 10cc, I'm surprised no one has even mentioned them. Sheet Music and The Original Soundtrack are both very progressive albums and I never hear them mentioned on this site. Maybe it's because they're simply too damn catchy to be considered prog, or maybe it's because the band index is A-Z and discriminates against the alphabet-challenged prog bands like 10cc? Either way they need to be included! |

I don't know what your opinions are on this, but I think Chicago should be
added on under Prog-related perhaps. Their first three albums are wonderfully crafted!  Even some of teir later ones were proggy. Of course
after Kath died they kinda went downhill but thats at least 10 pretty solidalbums for prog relation. |

Lately I'm becomming mopre interested in some Medieval Gothic bands, I find a lot of points in which this genre blends with Prog, lets face it, Medieval and Gothic are early Classical eras, so why aren't some of them included. Forgetall the stupid paraphernalia that surrounds Goth, don't worry about the dark clothes and the vampyre stories, face only in the music. My first three choices are:
Why Symphonic, because the main influence of Symphonic is Classical (Can be Baroque, Classi, Romantic or even Modern) and lets face it, Gothic and Medieval are also Classical sub-genres or eras, so I can't find a problem. The three bands are included in most Prog sites already, so we will not be taking many risks. Iván -------------

Glass Harp is played on Aural Moon. Not that that means that they
should be here, but obviously someone thinks they are progish. David Bowie's Alladin Sane has quite a few prog elements IMO. I think that Mallard & White Witch Should be here as well. ------------- Two heads are better than one, but if you want something done right, do it yourself.

Rainbow and Iron Maiden under Prog-Metal Ian Gillan Band under Jazz-Rock Fusion (they made a couple of great albums in the late '70s, before they changed their name to Gillan and started playing hard rock again) I also agree with A Perfect Circle (I'm not crazy about "Mer de Noms", but I can recognise its quality and prog influences). And finally, an outright provocation.... what about Talking Heads? Adrian Belew used to play with them, and they're rather progressive, even if not 'prog'

Hi all... First of all, to the bands already mentioned... A perfect circle.... possible, i can hear some prog elements in mer de noms, but their follow up (i forgot its name) seemed to be just a repeat performance. Talking heads... I actually agree. One of the most proto prog albums i have ever heard is fear of music... and their (or actually David Byrnes) collaboration with brian eno shines thru during their earlier career. (By the way, just bcause Adrian Belew played with them, dosent mean they are prog, although i love his solo stuff) Iron maiden... Gee i wish this debate would die already... They have no more prog elements than, say Ozzy Ozborne (...and pleeeeeeaaaaaaaase, no one nominate him (am pleading)) David Bowie... Thats a tough one, was he prog, or was he glam and made music for his many images. Yes, his early stuff was ear candy (Diamond dogs especially)... Hell if so, then under 'space rock' but only if you can separate his early career (from space oddisy to Scary Monsters) from the crud he made in the 80's (he must have ran out of money). Dead Can Dance... Of course Now for a suggestion I made b4. Einsturzende Neubauten - Under Kraut Rock. Pleeeaaasssee Thanking u in advance. May all wonderments progress (pardon the pun). ------------- I really like this jacket, but the sleeves are much too long. |

Absolutely agree with the Cocteau Twins, everything up to and including "Blue bell Knoll" is worthy of inclusion... especially 'victorialand'. Am interested in why u have nominated 'Architecture...'. Love them too, but, is pop prog???? ------------- I really like this jacket, but the sleeves are much too long. |
