Am I the first one to notice? (and is this topic in the right place? )

THERE ARE NEW SUB-GENRE DEFINITIONS!

I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY LIKE IT AND I THINK THE ADMINS DID A GREAT JOB!

I also like the idea of the Key-bands, based on ratings. This site is becoming more and more interactive. A great improvement!

What do you all think?

Me too, I love the Sub Genres of all the NEW Prof bands, who shine in their talented glory! Don't you love Sub Genres Plodder! ANd aren't all these NEW Sub Genres greatly fitting for all these amazing and innovative NEW prog bands! What do you think Karnevil9?

Yah, the Key band idea is really handy, it's hard to choose which band to venture into next.

Very nice indeed. I was hoping for such a listing, I'm very pleased with M@x, Ronnie and Maani

Hooray! Canterbury and Fusion have been siphoned off! 

However... The Tangent a KEY Canterbury band?!

But really, I love the new listings. My only other gripe would be the contiuing absence of Kevin Ayers, but I'm sure that will put to rights when someone has the time.

It is based on ratings, however I'm not quite sure why they're classified as Canterbury in the first place...

Otherwise though, great stuff I like the new additions!

It goes to show that a lot of hard work has gone into this and it shows that people's opinions do count.

Great job.

Max,

Great job overall.  I notice Proto-Kaw is listed as a fusion band.  Kind of hard to accept that considering they have a lead singer!

Hey M@X! Good to see you've knocked the Tangent off the Canterbury list, but I think you misunderstood my post concerning Kevin Ayers as Ayers Rock now appears to be in their place!

Kevin Ayers, sometime bassist for Soft Machine and a very quirky singer/songwriter in his own right has long been affiliated to the Canterbury scene, and though I wouldn't say he's a key exponent, I do feel he has a right to be listed on this website. Many of his earlier albums are still held in high regard by progheads worldwide (including me!).

That's all I was saying in previous post. Hope that's clearer now... Sorry if it seems like I'm pushing you about!

Max,

the only "major" I've noticed which stuck me as misplaced is the Moody Blues. I don't think they've ever been classed as Folk prog. I would suggest symphonic prog where BJH ("Poor man's moody blues"Wink) are. Art rock's another possibility.

Bravo, I think it is far superior.

I would also like to pass along kudos for another thing: album covers no longer appear along the side bar on the band sites. This was extremely frustrating for those with slow internet, and the site is definitely more accessible now.

All:

Just for the record, I take no credit whatsoever for this, as I had nothing to do with it (though I also think it's great!).  It was all Max and Rony this time.

Peace.
