Traumpfad is a german-language Prog-Rock-Band from South-Bavaria in Germany. They founded in 1998 and the Line-Up never changed since 2003.

Traumpfad released three Studio-Recordings (Traumpfad – 2004, Die Kreise schließen sich – 2006, Aufbruch – 2011). The last two albums were produced in collaboration with the German Prog-Rock-Band RPWL’s Mastermind Yogi Lang.

Traumpfad is on the way to grow to an integral part of the German Prog-Rock-scene. Critics see the renaissance of the German-language Kraut- and Progrock in the tracks of Novalis, Hoelderlin and Anyone’s Daughter. But somehow all comparisons are just not quite right. The associations with the pioneers of German rock music are more due to feeling than actually coming from a direct comparison of Traumpfad’s actual music. Probably the band has already reached more than many other bands at this point. They are unique in their combination of poetry, stylistics and possess what rarely can be found nowadays: their own style.

Discography:

Traumpfad (2004)
Die Kreise schließen sich (2006)
Aufbruch (2011)

Members:

Andi Brandl: drums
Marko Effenberger: guitars
Jonny Faggetter: bass

They are being evaluated by some team, I don't know who's doing this at this point, but they were not approved by the prog metal team when I was around there.

Their latest album is pretty good, though. A real shame not having them listed here yet.

And now what does it mean ? Well, I didn't vote (not enough material to vote on available I think), then the band was almost accepted to Crossover, but then majority of MOVE votes prevailed.

The weird thing is that the move was being made to Metal, which is ProgArchives famous case of ping-ponging. Yeah, you've just witnessed it.

This means that Metal team thinks (or thought) Traumpfad is better suited for Crossover and Xover team though (or thinks) the same thing, only with opposite direction.


Result ? Big mess.
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"
