From the Heavy Prog Conference we have one of the greats from the 70's From England URIAH HEEP!!! From the Heavy Prog Conference we have one of the most dynamic of modern groups. From the U.S THE MARS VOLTA!!! Vegas oddmakers have The Mars Volta as a 10 vote favorite but can Uriah Heep bring an upset? Is PA's filled with 50 year old plus geezers? Of course it can  ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

Well, even if I am a 50+ geezerette  , my vote goes to the mighty Mars Volta - a band I fell in love with instantaneously when I first heard Frances the Mute. Yes, they are an acquired taste, and not the most consistent of bands material-wise, but they possess that indefinable "something" that appeals to me. I do like UH a lot too, but I have always felt that Deep Purple were the benchmark for that particular style. |

The Mars Volta for me, although I do have a fantastic memory of seeing Uriah Heep as my first ever rock concert here in DK. Still, while I have most of their 70s output none of it really puts it's hand down my trousers. Nice background music though, if you're entertaining drunk Swedes in your apartment.

I don't ever remember a large fanclub for the group ever really taking hold here. It always seemed to be a bit of a love 'em or leave em' kind of group. Not haters per se but definitely an acquired taste. Then again Uriah Heep can be seen in the Camel mold of prog groups. Good band with some good albums but in all honesty can be described as a good example of 2nd division prog. Nothing particularly ground breaking or exceptional but very competent. It is about what I figured it might be. A close vote. ------------- The Pedro and Micky Experience - When one no longer requires psychotropics to trip |

This result proves quite clearly that prog fans in the second decade of the 21st century have become much more mainstream-oriented than they used to be when the movement first started. In the Seventies, progressive rock was about daring and innovation, not necessarily abut nice music that caresses our collective ears. While TMV are definitely an acquired taste, and were not the most consistent of bands by any means, it is hard to deny their influence on many modern prog bands (just listen to Thank You Scientist if you need any further proof). As I said in my post of a few days ago, I do like UH, but there is absolutely no comparison between the two bands in terms of progressiveness. |

Well, it does give one to think a bit. Not the concept of a poll per se. But the bands in question here. I am quite shocked Heep are winning this and I am not a Heep hater at all. I like Salisbury and also Very Heavy Very Humble. Nor do I resent different tastes but the implications of what kind of prog fan demographic such a result suggests just makes me wonder. Raff has summed up the point pretty well here. TMV was once compared on this forum to the Ys album of Balletto Di Bronzo. That's how hardcore we are talking. Where have all those fans gone?

| I'd like to believe that is all there is to it. But a discussion couple of days back or so on another thread with Toaster Mantis where he said new prog metal has a kind of retro orientation rather than the out of box stuff that was accepted few years back, makes me consider the possibility that there's more to it than that. It may be that prog preferences are pretty streamlined now as opposed to seeking out something eclectic or more experimental. I am not judging whether it's a good or a bad thing because it's all music, but this change does surprise me. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised because I remember a few years a metal fan was asking for recommendations like Phideaux which he thought was good stuff to chill out. And I thought, what an odd reason to listen to prog. But that may be the prevailing fashion now and this poll does suggest a preference for something in the comfort zone rather than out of it. TMV don't really polarise as much as DT. Another possibility is with their break up, some of their fans lost interest in prog altogether and have stopped coming to the forum. |

| I am not saying you, or anybody else for that matter, have to like TMV just because they are more experimental etc. But I do remember a time not so long ago when they were one of the hottest bands on PA, and probably in prog as such too, especially with PT reaching a dead end. Hotter than say Haken were around 2012-13. So it's kind of staggering if all those fans have disappeared. |

Ok. Warning you beforehand, though, that they can be very difficult to get into initially. I wondered initially what the frickin' deal was supposed to be until it 'clicked'. By the by, just noticed that Deloused in a Comatorium has 967 ratings. That's nearly double of Salisbury. That's what I am referring to. Even Frances The Mute comfortably has more ratings than Salisbury and both albums have an average rating of above 4. |

Well, I seem to remember a time when the "progginess" (a word I hate btw) of Uriah Heep was questioned. Personally, I find them pleasant but somewhat repetitive. TMV, on the other hand, clicked immediately with me - though I am well aware that they are not for everyone. Anyway, the point I wanted to make in my previous post has not so much to do with TMV as with the alarming trend among prog fans to play it safe. This is one of the reasons why many genuinely exciting modern progressive acts shun the traditional "prog" circuits, and get a lot of exposure at events that have a wider target audience. |

I think, seeing as Kati is enjoying Drunkship of Lanterns just now, somewhere the popularity of bands like TMV has ebbed. It took me aback when I realised I would have to actually introduce somebody to TMV, didn't think it would be necessary on this site but the day has come. If what you have described in the last sentence is happening, it can only be a good thing in my view and will help prog, in the spirit that was implied in the 70s, get a fresh lease of life. What prog music needs is exposure to more open minded listeners again that are not too specific in their needs as the retro-loving crowd can be.

@Kati: Actually I don't think she is saying that. What she said (that their progginess was questioned once on this website) is true; it did happen. As I said, it simply reflects how much this forum has changed. In the fashion of old proggy-fogeys, "you had to be there". Seriously, this once super-elitist forum that used to sneer at additions like, even, Radiohead voting Heep over TMV reflects a great deal of change.

I think most would agree that Salisbury by itself seals the deal. Well...again, it's just difficult to explain how this came to be questioned on this forum at a certain point but that is just how things happened. It is a fashion now to claim PA would add just about any interesting/weird sounding rock band to the database but I seem to remember a time when almost nothing barring the chosen few like KC, GG, Genesis, Yes was above questioning. There were threads questioning whether PF was prog. A thread by a prog metal team collab suggesting prog metal is not prog rock, based on very meticulous analysis done earlier by Cert1fied. More than anything, I am simply bemused by these developments . I have been active on this forum for at least 6 years and I never paid particular attention to these changes. Guess it takes a thread like this to throw a spotlight on just how much things have changed.

A lot has changed for sure, but you just don't notice until you run into it. It's like what happens to a frog when you put it in a pan of cold water and then slowly heat it up. It won't notice until it gets cooked alive. (If you throw it in a pan of hot water however, it will try to jump out immediately, but that's less relevant here.) That metaphor fits everywhere (although we mainly use it in organisational advice) and certainly applies here also. A lot has changed since I first came here, and the biggest changes I noticed after being away for about a year after retiring as admin. That's also when I noticed that the biggest changes were not caused by the admins or the collaborators but by the regular members. To proof the truth of the metaphor: after a fight that caused a guitarist and a keyboard player to split, we concluded as a band that this had been waiting to happen for almost 2 years. To never forget that, we actually renamed ourselves Bucket of Frogs .------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

Same here, and still... after playing two random tracks based on this discussion - there is something in there.

 This is how it begins! Volta fever! Good to see. I'm probably close to the biggest TMV fan on this forum, so while I have no objectivity in this whatsoever, this has been an interesting discussion from all of you. I'm fully aware that while most people on this forum have a lot of respect for Volta, it's not for everybody, and I'm not terribly surprised at the result (if the current votes hold). I think there's a truth to what is being said about prog fans increasingly going for the safe options, but that's their prerogative.

| not having any feedback which is even more disarming, not nice makes you doubt if one wants to be or belong here to be honest and I just want to be happy friendly but remove myself from any negativity too. I can do this easily and block all else xxx |

Ohh if you only knew how many links and vids people post every day that go by unnoticed, Sonia😉 You are certainly not the only one. I'd say that probably 75% of all the YouTubes I've ever posted went the same way, but I gather this is mostly down to the fact that everyone else is doing the same thing. If we had to check out all these tubes, there would be no time for anything else😊 Also, I'm pretty sure the vast majority of members know these tracks you've posted. Personally I tend to check out things I'm unfamiliar with....or else I can always pop on a cd with superior sound quality😉 ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

Don't fret Kati-I've been a Uriah Heep fan for atleast 30+ years.I thought i was about the only one who liked the track "Salisbury" from the album of the same title,since there is not much talk of it,so now i know i'm not alone.Another track from the album Salisbury i really like is "The Park".Also as you mentioned July Morning & The Wizard are both excellent.I could talk on & on about Heep but i'll keep it short. ------------- "Nobody's Gonna Change My World That's Something To Unreal" Lyrics that i live my life by-from Black Sabbath's Technical Ecstasy's track You Won't Change Me |

Well right back atcha Sonia The bikini pic is one I only use during holidays, and for short periods of time - mostly because I very quickly tire of looking at myself  Much rather look at one of my fave girls drinking milk. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

It's holidays festive season btw
 plus it's not all about you and how you feel looking at yourself, that's a tad selfish don't you think? Now give me Heston Blumenthal bikini top wearing hot brother back!  |

Very heavy very Humble and Salisbury are the Heep albums that I love more. So at least we are three. ------------- Curiosity killed a cat, Schroedinger only half. My poor home recorded stuff at https://yellingxoanon.bandcamp.com |
