I'm interested in exploring those prog bands whose entire careers began after the 1970s but ended before the start of this century. Bands who "fell between two stools".
Suggestions? ------------- rotten hound of the burnie crew |

You mean what has been labelled Neo Prog? (We have an entire sub genre devoted to it in the archive)

Partly - but not including bands who continued iinto this century, such as Marillion.
Also, of course, many bands of other subgenres were active during that time. ------------- rotten hound of the burnie crew |

Mr. Bungle fits the criteria. Happy The Man did an album after the '90's and got started in the '70's.  Neo-prog has not confined themselves to that period.------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

How about the Cardiacs? Their studio albums period is between 1984 and 1999, (well, they have a few live albums from this new millenium) |

Mansun are a favourite of mine. They only made 3 albums then decided they had enough during the recording of their 4th album ,before an internet petition by their fans got it released.
Attack Of The Grey Lantern has to be one of the most 'out there' debut albums.
Scary stuff:
and a great Beatles pastiche

Ah, the intertestemental period of prog. The 80s were certainly a difficult time for prog Many prog bands still formed and were successful before the new century. I would have said Marillion but they are still going! Depois Do Fim Bacamarte
Script From A Jesters Tear Marillion
Tales From The Lush Attic IQ
Crises Mike Oldfield
The Final Cut Pink Floyd
Baby Snakes Frank Zappa
Peter Gabriel Plays Live Peter Gabriel
Logos Live at the Dominion London Tangerine Dream

^ not all of those artists "came and went" in the last 2 decades of the 20th centry though, some began in the 70s and some are still with us. ------------- What? |

yeah I know and that's what makes it difficult to respond to this thread. I must admit i am not that knowledgeable about which artists finished before 2000 having started in the 80s, I thought Saga might have been a contender but they are still about too I think. Interesting thread.... -------------

I think Sky is the only one in that list that fits the criteria. Scratch that, their debut was 1979.  ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I know this twenty-year period misses both 'great eras' of prog, but surely there were lots of bands whose entire output happened during that time? More than a few, at least? ------------- rotten hound of the burnie crew |

Eider Stellaire, Dead Can Dance, U Totem, Lacrymosa, Wha-Ha-Ha, After Dinner... These all have one great albumrelease in the 80's and nothing else. Hardly a career: Noa, Rahmann, Hellebore, Kultivator, Nya Ljudbolaget |
