Has anyone heard of this japanese metal band from the 80s? Prog archives doesn't list them as being a "progressive" band but they definitely have some prog-y songs that are worth a listen. Art of Life (28:59) http://grooveshark.com/s/Art+Of+Life/3lnNsJ?src=5 Rose of Pain (11:50) http://grooveshark.com/s/Rose+Of+Pain/43PYCQ?src=5 Kurenai (6:18) http://grooveshark.com/s/Kurenai/3LGYXD?src=5 And also, if you learn to play the intros to Rose of Pain and Kurenai on guitar, ladies will flock to you.

| This should be in General Music Discussions. Ladies already flock to me. I have to beat them with a stick to keep them away. |

Indeed, not the right forum this one. I am only familiar with them because of Yoshiki's collaboration with Roger Taylor on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJyjmzzwMZ8" rel="nofollow - Foreign Sand . ------------- Property of Queen Productions...

I like the Art of Life. Great track. But yes, wrong forum. I'll ask for a move. ------------- http://ow.ly/8ymqg" rel="nofollow">

I remember having listened to an album of theirs that sounded very Helloween-like. They belong to the visual kei current, they may have some prog influences but they are not prog. What I heard from them was quite good. ------------- "Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood) |

I'm a bit of a fan, I have a couple of albums but nothing tops Art of Life. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/B_Hammock/?chartstyle=basicrt10">
