I think Metallica and Iron Maiden's early period (1983-1989 in case of Metallica; 1980-1988 in case of Maiden) have to be included in the prog-related subgenre.

Thoughts?

Yeah, Metallica's "master of Puppets" is kinda prog-influenced... Maiden's Prog influence is almost obvious (in lyrics and sometimes in the "epic" sonic landscape)

Actually I think only one or two albums of them are Prog Related:

  • Metallica: Master of Puppets, ... And Justice For All
  • Iron Maiden: Don't know their newer albums ... but apart from 7th Son nothing merits to be called Prog Related IMO.

In fact Master of Puppets is Proto-Prog, not Prog Related.

Then add Black Sabbath too. Sabotage, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Master Of Reality are prog, not to mention the last two albums of the Ozzy era.

AND DEATH

Well, I think Iron Maiden and Killers are their most progresive albums, and probably, "Phantom of the Opera" their most progressive song, even more that "Seventh son of a Seventh son".

Don't add them, just cause they are a bit more creatvie doesn't make them prog (IE Tool). Do add Death, however, as everything passed Leprosy is rather proggy, with The Sound of Perserverence being absolutely prog death metal.

Yes, that song is awesome ... especially if you take into account when it was written (long before any modern prog metal).

Totally agree. It could be considered Proto-ProgMetal, as the same form of Deep Purple is Proto-Prog.

 that Tool statement gave you away. Tool are commonly accepted to be prog.

They don't have to be Prog, just Prog related, thats what the category is all about isn't it?

Motorhead ARE prog-related. Lemmy used to be a member of Hawkwind.
