Boud Deun  is already here in JRF
I'll go over the others later
 
EDIT - I'll go over your Avant-rock suggestions and let you know what you can work on if you want.

Tarentel are already here, and Volta Do Mar have been (unofficially) cleared for addition.

If you feel like writing a bio for them, I'm pretty sure we can get them added. I just need to check the situation with my teammates.

Ok, here are few others I'm more familiar with:

Idiot Saint Crazy (avant) I think these guy have a strong argument to be on the sight under Avant-prog. I wouldn't be unhappy to see them here.
Sun City Girls (Avant) I might be a little bias, my mind keeps reverting back to alvarius B's solo albums, they are definately avant-garde, any suggestion on their most proggy albums? So at the moment I think they are boarderline.
Art Ensemble of Chicago (jazz rock/avant) Not sure if I agree with this suggestion, from the album I have heard sounds more like free-jazz, so not really anything within the realms of rock. Do you have any suggestions of their more rock orientated albums to check out?

You are probably right about Art Ensemble of Chicago. They just have the fushion element.
 
Sun City Girls - Torch of the Mystics is just amazingly avant. Reminds me of This Heat  - This Hear or something along the lines of that...just weirder.

Battles has the guitarist from Don Cab. It would be an excellent add.

I'll check up Battles, Holy Smokes, We Be The Echo and Metronome the City for their Art Rock (or art) pointed out style, as an AR Specialist and Cosmic Synergy for Electronic Prog as a EP Specialist. Big%20smile

thanks!

okay, the Art Rock team checked all the bands that had suggestion for Art Rock, here's what we came with:

Battles to be suggested for Post
Holy Smokes is not progressive rock
We Be The Echo suggested for the Math section of Avant-prog
Metronome The City Art or Pysch, though not extremely progressive

I think we shall resume considering Battles for Art Rock is the Post Team rejects it (though, I myself, have a doubtful vote against it, Don Caballero or no Don Caballero relation); and we will focus more on Metronome The City once Psych gaves a bit of impression on it.

For the electronic suggestion, the band will not be added.

Thanks!

A short update:
 
Originally posted by MusicForSpeedin MusicForSpeedin wrote:

this band has probably been mentioned a lot...Orthrelm (Prog. Metal or Avant) www.myspace.com/orthrelm as far as I am concerned they should be added to avant-rock. Waiting for my other teammates to vote.
 
Curlew (jazz rock/avant)  http://www.cuneiformrecords.com/bandshtml/curlew.html this is all I could find for Curlew....very awesome band though. They were already in our chart and they're cleared for addition if you want to give it a go
 
Godzpik Pink (avant) http://www.mp3fanatic.com/GodzikPink/ this is all I could find for Godzik Pink     I added them and voted Yes
 
Holy Smokes (avant prog/art rock) www.myspace.com/holysmokesouterspace I know these guys and like what they're doing, it is progressive I believe, but am still unsure about them being here, but if they would be, it's definitely in avant-rock.
 
Gorge Trio (avant/noise rock(if that ever happens) www.myspace.com.gorgetrio added to out chart and I am not sure yet, we have several noise bands (some with a rock edge, some without, and we're still hesitating about it).
 
Moe! Staiano/Moe!kestra! - (avant) www.myspace.com/moestaianomokestra This Myspace isn't working anymore
 
We Be The Echo (art/metal/avant) www.myspace.com/webetheecho Added and voted Yes
 
Grand Ulena (avant) www.myspace.com/grandulena I added them to the chart a while back, and I voted Yes. If you want you can work on that as well.
 
I'll get to others later (sorry, have a lot of work to do).

This sounds really intesting! Do they have any more extended pieces? as it is quite hard to gage their sound from 4 2min samples.

I'm struggling to see if we (PA) can get over to create a new genre for Math Rock, Noise Rock and Brutal Prog artists so bands like:

Holy Smokes (avant prog/art rock) www.myspace.com/holysmokesouterspace
Volta Do Mar (post rock) www.myspace.com/voltadomar
Cheval De Frise (avant) www.myspace.com/chevaldefrise
Rumah Sakit (post-rock) sounds a lot like Don Cab. http://music.download.com/rumahsakit/3600-8606_32-100056817.html
Storm and Stress (post rock) www.myspace.com/mmmmfood
Orthrelm (Prog. Metal or Avant) www.myspace.com/orthrelm

Could fit in.

By the way those are the ones from your post that I know of that would fit here.

You can listen to some songs on their label's website
along with tracks from many other awesome bands. This is probaby my favorite label along side Tzadik and Load.

If we had a noise math rock section I could suggest a lot more so I really hope that happens. I like noise and math rock more than symphonic prog and the likes.
