^ yes, I mentioned in the first post that some genres are missing. Feel free to make some suggestions as to how to add them to the timeline, and I'll try to add them.Smile

Mike...Cert... as you all know .. I'm not an expert on metal... just as always ..curious...

what do you say to those who call... groups like Uriah Heep and Deep Purple proto Prog Metal. I see them called that every once in a while

^ Thanks! Could you name some of these early tech/shred metal bands/albums?

I agree that the "core" timelines need to be adjusted ... Neo prog begins a bit too early for example.

I think "technical" and "shred" metal began in the late 1980s - and would dispute some of the "core" timelines - but great 1st attempt!

Very interesting MIke. Is it fair to say that some of the metal categories you have included are not considered Prog on this site?

I like it. I've wanted to do something like this myself for quie a while. I particularily like how you've also marked a core period of some styles.

Have a look at this prog timeline I created:



Some genres are still missing. I am trying to create a simple view of the "prog universe" ... I don't want to make it too detailed, but I also want to show the important differences between the styles.
