Hi Angelo. We talked about that in other forum section. What do you think now?

Was that about Amadeus? Not sure, but I guess you're right (I don't come here frequently enough to memorise it ;) ). Given this site's definitions, Death is just a Feeling could be Heavy Prog (with strong metal influences), but the definition of that genre as given on the site wouldn't fit entirely - mainly because it is too much based on selective comparisons with other bands than on a real definition of style. A bit if a misfit given the definition, but fully qualified addition based on the name of the genre.

If his first album, Eon, which I haven't heard is even more metal oriented I can see why he would be cleared for Prog Metal instead of Heavy Prog.

In the end, I don't care much where he's added, as long as he gets added - releasing one of the best prog albums so far this year.

Awad's EON has been cleared as prog metal.

As for Awad (solo) there is insufficient evidence of prog in the music. If that EP was ever to be released/expanded, then we would have a look

I agree. I only listen to "Death" and this one not enough for genre label. Thanks again.

My apologies Thanos
I thought it was one band and not two different projects.

EP? There's a whole new album out there, Thanos. Hope you didn't miss out on that?

Oh god. This link filtered in IRAN. I'm tired so much. Many of useful links FILTERED in IRAN and I must use Proxy and this slow down internet speed more and more.

If someone can provide a bio I might get a better idea of what to do here.
Amadeus Awad or AA's Eon, what's the difference? Is there any relevance to have two entries?

We also put all bands and monnikers from Devin Townsend (post-Strapping Young Lad) under one entry.
Isn't this case similar?

Anyways, if you all think we need two entries then please provide 2 bios Smile

I'd say take the Devin Townsend approach, and use the bio that O666 linked to as a basis.

From MRR website

In 2014 Amadeus released an album called “The Book of Gates” a side project from his solo work, the album was released thru Prog Power.

I believe we should treat it separately

Just listened to the samples and it sounds like a very good album - Anneke helps lift it of course!
Clealry a prog album, although I would place it under Crossover or Heavy Prog, see what the others say.

The team is in that one Omid. They're also now enjoying the weekend I think, so it may take a few days.
