Faithful Breath released two prog albums in 70s:
Fading Beauty (1973): http://www.milius-web.de/fb/faithful-breath-fading-beauty.php - http://www.milius-web.de/fb/faithful-breath-fading-beauty.php
Back On My Hill (1978): http://www.milius-web.de/fb/faithful-breath-back-on-my-hill.php - http://www.milius-web.de/fb/faithful-breath-back-on-my-hill.php
In the eighties, they changed their style to hard and metal rock, but I think they should be here because these two albums are pure progressive rock (and excellent !!!)

I'm aware of the band, and I'm sure several collaborators have also checked it, but the "change" you've mentioned has put us so far in the difficulty of placing it somewhere. I agree, though, the two albums can't be missed out of a genuine "complete" prog rock archive.

I agree with the suggestion:Fading Beauty is pure symphonic progressive rock on the dark side of life!

No doubt they deserve inclusion on PA.

The symphonic tag certainly doesn't apply on anything beyond their second full length release, that's for sure ;-)

I agreed with Ivan opinion, but I can not agree with the idea that Fading Beauty is boring..

Agreed. (though I still haven't heard their '81 album, I have no doubt it's no different than the following cheesy metal albums...)
I only recently found out that FB had been added, so I just wanted to thank you for your work... Man, you must have had a though time having the Symph team accept it!!! (Though I believed their first two albums were Symph-prog myself, I didn't have the guts to suggest them for Symph... You can see why, in the aforementioned thread in CZ, of which I am the major poster! Strange, though, no one even asked me for a sample of the "two magnificent albums" I promoted so heartily )
Oh, actually Symphonic tag may be "just a little" stretched out to include their last "prog" single "Die Morderbiene", which was strangely made by the same line-up which produced their first heavy metal album! That song is featured in the http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/faithful_breath/back_on_my_hill_f1/ - 2007 Garden of Delights edition of "Back on My Hill" album (which makes your statement true, again!) No wonder, the single has "Keep Me Away" from the same album as B-side... You may want to edit the album's page so as to include the bonus track...
Thanks again, keep up the good work...
