I know what you're thinking....what do those bearded drunks have to do with prog? Well on their last album listen to the epic choirs on the last track, the virtuostic duet between accordion and violin over odd-time balcanic rhythm in Court of Jarisleif, the meter changing between 7/4 to 11/8 (and polyrhythm with drums) on Five Hundred and One. I think they are totally prog!

	Thing to say: my mother who doesn't listen much metal, fell in love to this band when she was in Ruisrock (Turku, Finland). I like it also, and i soon noticed it has progressive elements. Have to listen it more carefully now though... back to business when i get home.
