in my opinion the first prog-metal album is from 1969!!!! "Sea Shanties" by High Tide

I tend to agree with this quite controversial opinion of BaldJean to some extent; and if not really full prog-metal album, it can be probably called grand grand father of prog-metal. And (nowadays) I find it being more interesting than any other metal album afterwards

As to who inveted the styles, not necessarily who was the first band to play that style completely.

Neo Progressive: Genesis circa Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering (highly debatable)

Symphonic Prog: Ehn...going from English bands and barring the more avant-guard King Crimson, I'd say Yes.

RIO: I'm no expert, but It's gotta be Zappa.

Progressive Metal: King Crimson ("Red"), and Rush ("YYZ")

Miles Davis With His "Bitches Brew" album is considered the inventor of jazz-rock fusion.
If anyone knows where I can get a copy of some Flute and Voice (Indo-Prog/Raga Rock) albums please PM me! Many thanks!

Never thought of the first couple post-Gabriel albums as Neo-Prog, but in retrospect I guess you could say they had moved away from being Symphonic Prog.

Ingmar Progman invented the progressive subgenres.

He is the cousin of movie maker Ingmar Bergman!

The pioners of Prog Metal, well, I dont know, there are a few prog metal bands before Dream Theater, and I dont know who was first. There were heavier porg bands before Dream Theater. But Queensryche was the first fully metal band to be prog. Unfortunatly, most of their stuff wasn't fully prog. This Led the way for Dreamtheater to pioneer the genre

I am no expert but this is my opinion

Magma: Zehul

Marillion: neo-prog

Yes: symphonic prog

Zappa: RIO

Prog metal: Queensryche was the first one but there is a clear prog metal influence on Knife from Genesis...Really listen carefully to Trespass

Italian Prog: Banco del Mutuo Soccorso

Space Rock: Pink Floyd

Jazz Fusion: good question who knows???

For symphonic prog; why does everyone think King Crimson's In The Court of The Crimson King was made before Touch?

Search Touch on this website.

What I find interesting about this little band is that members of Yes and Kansas have cited them as early influences. The song Seventy-Five off of Touch's only album sounds unusually similar to the upbeat radio prog-classics Americans should know from classic rock stations, especially similar to very early Yes and Kansas!

OK checked it out. This band had one album, in 1968( the same year as In the Court of the Crimson King) It does tell me the exact date so I can't see if it came out first. However, it is listed as proto-prog. This means its has the same amount of prog as bands like the moody blues and Zappa. I would litsen to it to see if it was more prog than those, but there are no streams on the site.

way to leave out Caravan

both were equally important to the Canterbury Family Tree, with the Wilde Flowers really being at the root of the genre
