Hi,
I'm always searching for new music and I really love prog-metal, but I checked out every band in the archives now and also found some other bands which are not in the archives. Do you know further prog-metal bands which are not in the archives? -------------

| Blind Guardian's pretty cool. They're power metal with some prog leanings. |

funny you should ask ... you must check out *** Beyond Twilight *** they are a great progressive metal band with the chops of symphony x and dream theater (throw in a little black sabbath in the vocal area) but with their own sound whicch is fantastic ! they should be in the prog archives on this site but for some reason they are not ? The CD from them I know you will probably dig is called Beyond Twilight "Section X" I would give it a 9/10 rating for a prog metal cd and I`m very fussy

 I know Blind Guardian, but I don't really like them, but thanks for your help
Well, I suggested to add them to the archives and they are added  , so I kind of know them They are really good, especially their keyboarder, I've seen some videos from him-amazing.-------------

I noticed them, but couldn't get their album  , it's probably quite rare, maybe I can get it via second-hand anywhere.
Did you know that they later became Moonlight Circus?
Yes they are, nice band! But thanks for the help of you all, so far!
Does anyone have any further suggestions of good prog-metal bands that are NOT in the archives? -------------

a very young polish prog metal band called "White Crow"... http://www.whitecrow.prv.pl/ - http://www.whitecrow.prv.pl/ in "Dyskografia" at the bottom of the page you can find 2 whole songs for download and quite a lot of samples... The didn't impress me much but They are quite young and still underground... ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ed_the_dead/?chartstyle=asimpleblue5">

Yes, they have some nice ideas and definitely potential, let's see what they will make in the future.
The vocals are a bit strange. -------------

check out: Mind Key: Journey Of A Rough Diamond. ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

DEATH Don't ask me why they aren't in the archives because they are probaly the most technical death/extreme fusion band of all time Start with symbolic either symbolic or human - both are fantastic -------------
