Hi! I'm from Ukraine and I’m currently a new one (it’s my first reply at this forum)

Unfortunately, I don’t know any Ukrainian prog-band =( Accept one which is called Obiimy Doschu (Обійми Дощу). However they play mostly doom-metal (but call themselves a prog-band anyway LOL  ) I know there are plenty of prog-bands in Poland, Czech and even Russia. I’m a kinda feel shame for my country… Maybe I should organize a prog-band myself, ha? … I’m joking

Seriously, I’ve got a question for you guys: does anybody know where I can find the latest info about prog rock events, I mean some websites or something (in English preferably) with news devoted to the Prog? Thank you
You can follow my blog here prog-n-post The blog is in russian but still you're able to download prog rock music free there ;)

Well, you can always try this:

http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=51596

look for Ukraine and PA shows that your country lists 8 bands. It's great resource.

And if it's not enough for you, write to this guy: His name is Igor and he's from Ukraine as well. I hope he'll help you more than I can.

I also suggested Olympic for Crossover. Particulary for their albums Holidays on Earth, The Street and Laboratory (Prázdniny na Zemi, Ulice a Laboratoř).

Stehlík, Marno, Švehlík are my next target. I also have to check suggestions by Milan, his few months old ones, I own it to him. 


To let you know about my thoughts and plans, I'll "write down" my mind here. Please, discuss these bands here, as I'm not posting them in Suggest New Bands section, but rather taking them directly into Collaborators Zone team threads, watching them carefully and reminding teams about their existence.

I'm thinking about:
obscure band Závodnička 5
possibility of suggesting Duševní hrob

expect also Jolly Joker Band, Oswald Schneider.


At the moment, I'm however busy with listening Crossover suggestions. Check first column in this link http://progfreak.com/home/progarchives.xhtml?path=crossover_prog/nw
that's my column and where there are no symbols, I haven't voted yet, so I want to catch up this as well.


I'm man of many projects and sometimes, I forgot things. It happens.

Thanks Marty!

Some groups on the list are familiar, especially Er.G.Orchestra, 'cos my father used to play on violin there. In 2006 they warmed up the public before the Manfred Mann's show in Kyiv. I'm intended to write a cycle of articles about Eastern European prog on my blog. I'll use some info from this part of forum if You don't mind Wink ?

Hi Marty,

what do you think, should I propose Zrni in the 'Suggest New Bands and Artists' thread?

I don't mind, don't worry. And I suppose that others won't mind as well (but can't speak for them). Don't forget to note us about it. I hope that it will be in English, so we can read it (hehe).

That's actually a good idea. You'll write thread there and I will take care about the rest of things as far as I can in team's thread in collaborator's zone (section of forums where voting takes place). I'll speak for them there, OK ?

Snobb, I would like to thank you for adding Plastic People's new album. You even managed to get šžřřýžá characters right. The only thing I would like to ask you would be to have only first letters of song names should be Capital letters. It's not exactly the site's policy, but it's Czech record and there is convention to write it this way.

Just request, nothing more.

Example:

A2 Půlnoční Mys /Midnight Mouse/ 4:39

would be

A2 Půlnoční myš / Midnight Mouse (4:39)



Midnight Mouse stands, it's foreign name and shouldn't be altered. But Půlnoční has capital P only because it's start of "sentence, song name, these things". myš then has little m.


I noticed that progress of adding Polish bands isn't so fast, only from time to time. They don'T have a caretaker like myself ?Smile

Hi, everyone! I am latecoming to this topic... Cheers for this!
Regarding the music that was made during the period of existence of SFR Yugoslavia (60's to late 80's) I have already included many cornerstones of progressive rock and related styles here:
http://www.progarchives.com/Bands-country.asp?country=203

Surely, there are always some obscure names to be potentially added and I will post here info when I find it.

Enjoy!
