Album added! Thanks, Micky.
I will most likely have to concoct a picture ... I will aim for the three main guys: Dawkins, Rudd & McClellan
Thanks to everyone for their efforts in getting Patch 'patched' into PA (poor pun intended ... how droll is that?)

Got that last vote and I am pleased to say that Patch has been accepted in the Crossover Prog family.

C'mon people, here's a place for enjoyment and fun... I know that we all, as prog-heads, have strong personalities, but let's leave the daily stuff outside the door and share our beloved music and dream a little bit. What's the point of bringing to this site the our stress of everyday? It's like the cops selling guns to the wrongdoers, isn't it? |

Before i forget, we are one of the few teams that cleans all the supposedly Symphonic bands two times a year. The last cleaning up of all the bands catalogued as Symphonic by the Master List was on May 19
As you see, we not only added all the Symphonic bands from tthe list, but also took the time to check and wtite guidelines for the other non Symphonic bands because we don't believe helping other teams is a problem..
BTW: All the Symph bands from that list were already added.

Thanks for your efforts Raff. Edited by Ivan_Melgar_M - September 14 2007 at 02:30 |

Please don't argue... I know we're all under severe stress, but PA should help us to feel a bit better, don't you think so?
Anyway, I just finished listening to the album, and I agree with Ivan and the others - it is not Symphonic but in a few parts, and a good deal of it sounds very much ambient/New Age to me. Probably Crossover is the best place to put them. Let's see what the other ARers have to say about that. |

Yep, I have to agree with HT and Bob, after a few more listens it sounds Prog, so one Art Rock sub-sub-genre will do it. But I would go with Crossover, because Patch has a lot of mainstream elements like New Age, some Pop and Jam Jazz, so I would go with Crossover.
Eclectic is for more complex bands like King Crimson, Gentle Giant or VDGG and patch is not near the level opf complexity.
But that they are Prog, they are Prog.

Eclectic would do it for me! ...I have updated the thread title and bio along that line, too. Do you fine gentlemen pass the submission on to "Art Rock" team?

I trust your opinions more than my own as I don't feel as confident of the Symph side of this. I was thinking the old Art Rock myself initially, and suppose I was persuaded to make an leaning to Symph on the basis of the reference in "The Essential Mini-Guide". To my mind the work is clearly progressive and belongs in PA, but I also believe it is more than Prog Related.

Okay, here's my take.
"Air" is ambient meets New Age. "Fire" is Symphonic Progressive rock. "Water" starts out as Jazz Fusion, and ends up Psych/Space "Earth" Is New Age, then goes a bit Psych, then Jam Band, then Jam Band/Jazz Fusion. It's all prog to me. I think related would be a mistake. But I think it should be Eclectic, or Crossover. |

Yes I understand Andu, I'm familiar with them, but we have a different system that has worked until now with less than 1% of problems (Really all our decisions were supported by the Collaborators team exceopt one case and by the person who proposed it).
When we have any doubt we start a thread in the Collaborators section (In the open forum could take forever) and wait a couple of weeks, even in the case I mention in the first parragraph we were supported by the vast majority.
If a member of the team disagrees with our opinion, he always adds a post expressing his disagreement so we keep people informed, but this system has worked to assign and/or reasign more than 600 bands, so we are staying with it.
If it works, we don't want to take the chance of ruining something that is perfect for us until today.
Thanks anyway.

The Prog-Metal charts are only a public list where team members put on their votes, Ivan. Everybody else can only watch. You should check it out, it's an excellent idea, the Symph team could implement it, too. |
