Moderator: Site moderators. Hi, prog archives, let me elaborate more than just the title and set some rules as to prevent some very obvious answers.

Review by sgtpepper. On this release, Anekdoten updated their sound to be more contemporary, include more keyboard sounds but at the heart, King Crimson still remains a clear influence. Singing has improved to be more convicing although still lacking the range of a common singer. Rizoma marks another milestone in the band's storied journey through the Fantasy plays what we can call song oriented prog that was quite already dated by the time their debut album made the shops. Styx was never this prog through an entire album but this is a constant and consistent piece of work. It is unusual that the tracks are all shorter without any that stick out as extended pieces which adds to the unusuality of it all.

Neo-progressive rock commonly abbreviated neo-prog [2] is a subgenre of progressive rock which developed in the UK in the early s. The genre's most popular band, Marillion , achieved mainstream success in the decade. Several bands from the genre have continued to record and tour. Neo-prog is characterised by deeply emotional content, often delivered via dramatic lyrics and a generous use of imagery and theatricality on-stage. The music is mostly the product of careful composition , relying less heavily on improvised jamming. The subgenre relies very much on clean, melodic and emotional electric guitar solos , combined with keyboards. The main musical influences on the neo-prog genre are bands from the first wave of progressive rock such as early Genesis , Camel , and to a lesser extent Van der Graaf Generator and Pink Floyd. Later in the same book, Jerry Lucky suggested that this subgenre of progressive rock peaked in the mids: "As dawned all of the British neo-progressive rock bands release material. A predecessor to this genre was The Enid , who fused rock with classical but were more heavily influenced by Ralph Vaughan Williams than by more modern composers. Lyrics became more personal and less esoteric. Concept albums were still created, but not as frequently and on a smaller scale. Early neo-prog was marked by sophisticated lyrics and often dark themes. While the accessibility of neo-prog to the mainstream is debatable, the form did generally seem more radio-friendly, with shorter and less complex songs than earlier progressive rock. Nonetheless, neo-prog never achieved the heights of popular success that the first wave of progressive rock in the s did, with only one band, Marillion, achieving arena status. The album has been called "the cornerstone of the entire 'neo-prog' movement".

COMITY is a French experimental hard-core band that was formed in and that went through several line-up and musical changes through the years. But which bands were you influenced by and why did you choose that name? Our influences pretty evolved throughout the years. Then with the emergence of bands like starkweather, morning again, converge and all these kinds of bands, we started to follow their path mixing it all. We listen to a big amount of different things from minimal electro, grime, classical music, jazz to math-rock, noise-core, sludge, black-metal.

After a showcase, Clive Davis reportedly told the band , "Wow. Their debut is the band at its most dynamic, highlighted by intricate instrumental interplay as far-out as the song titles "Stumpy Meets the Firecracker in Stencil Forest," "Knee Bitten Nymphs in Limbo". Beaming down from the far reaches of the prog-rock galaxy, this Japanese drums and bass duo slam together mathematically improbable meters and dissonant blasts of rhythm with nonsense wails or demonic growls. The band's fifth album is especially fascinating, as Ruins inject snippets of vocal melody, droning doom, punk tempos, and meticulous Crimson-esque prog into their rapidly morphing songs. The most obvious influence on Ruins' ringleader Yoshida Tatsuya is Magma's iconoclastic Christian Vander — like Vander, Yoshida even created his own language for the band — but there are also traces of experimental freaker Frank Zappa and avant-jazz terrorizer John Zorn who released the album on his Tzadik label. Some have tagged Hyderomastgroningem unlistenable and undoubtedly it could drive most fans of King Crimson or Yes batty. But maybe that just makes Ruins more prog than prog. Superficially, Toronto-based FM had a lot working against them: Aside from Rush, Canada was never a prog hotbed, and the band released its debut album in , as many of the genre's originators were fading.

Side-long concept pieces, walls of Mellotrons, keyboardists in capes…such were the glories of progressive rock. And behind it all were a stack of wildly creative prog-rock albums that still hold a potent thrill of discovery. The reverberations are still there whenever a modern band takes chances with instrumentation or reaches beyond a singles-length track. But here we salute the original 70s heyday of prog rock, with a couple of lates and earlys cornerstones. All of it demonstrates how much of a journey a minute vinyl album could be. Let us know in the comments section below. Listen to the best of Prog Rock on Spotify. R is less about specific politics than an underlying sense of disorder, it shows that veteran proggers can still have teeth.

Review by Prog Zone. This is an exceptionally strong way to end the album. So we chose to give our whole discography for free, with a good sound quality. Review - 26 Karmamoi - Silence Between Sounds Silence Between Sounds is the third and strongest album as of from the Italian progressive rock band Karmamoi released in Our plans for the future are very simple: playing as much as possible to promote this album and maybe find more labels all over the world to release it as well. But which bands were you influenced by and why did you choose that name? Growing up my dad would cringe when putting on at the gates or six feet under in the car, but would remark how type o were pretty tame and some songs reminded him of the doors which he was a huge fan of. Studio, For those of us unfamiliar with your music; how would you describe you music and which bands would you compare yourself with? So no ambient intro tracks or stuff like Samba Briza. But after years of struggling in the LA singer-songwriter scene, he realized that his dream would not materialize. So we started to play music again, with no special objectives at all, we started to write music again only because we needed it. If you know someone who loves Prog rock, maybe you'd show them an album from Atheist or Sanctuary's "Into the Mirror Black".

Lowlights: tracks The backstory of this album is interesting. Prog Reviewer. The album was a project to make an entire album in a single day. The Journey Is Over Now from Their sound draws on modern classical music, jazz and experimental music. It is one of the instrumentals, very bright, a whole extravaganza of unique color, everything rumbles and explodes, all this outrage in combination with an electric guitar and keys is simply mesmerizing. Teams evaluate whether the band or musician should be So if you've ever heard a song or album and thought "y'know, I think this or that crowd might enjoy this for this or that aspect", that's what I'm looking for. So what do I want? I'd say power metal can appeal to a lot of people who like rock, or even folk type stuff, but can't stand the growling vocals of other metal styles.
