Their first albums are not prog, just plain celtic folk metal. I didn't follow them thoroughly to have an opinion of their prog credentials, but I read that they turned somewhat prog in the last ten years. They probably followed a similar evolution as Blind Guardian. ------------- "Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood) |

I would not say they are a prog band actually, though they do have some prog songs and even a proggy album, but they are more folk metal. ------------- Follow me on twitter @memowakeman |

If all you guys seem to agree that they are Folk Metal then someone should make a correction because they are under Progressive Metal here on PA

| ^ on a similar note, most people agree that Blind Guardian are not a progressive metal band (not even in their couple more adventurous releases) but they are also on PA but nothing we can do about that |

I thought this this thread would be about Tago Mago. Some kind of slang thang asking people if Tago Mago is da bee's knees, if you're into Ozzy - or some strange kind of mix anyway....  ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.
