Hi! I've been lurking these forums for god knows how long, so today I've decided to take the plunge and actually create an account! Taste-wise, I'm first and foremost a metalhead, I'm just as likely to follow up a listen of CTTE with some obscure 90's death metal group as I am a King Crimson or Porcupine Tree album. Over time though, my taste in prog has really migrated away from vanilla progressive metal, and at this point really only things I'm nostalgic for make their way into my rotation (Tool, Dream Theater, Opeth), although there's still plenty of more extreme metal-oriented stuff I still listen too. ANYWAY, the part most of you probably actually care about, my taste in more straight-ahead prog. If you asked me to list only bands I'd say I really, REALLY like, the list would look something like this. Porcupine Tree King Crimson The Mars Volta Yes Camel Gentle Giant Rush Although I'm familiar with a ton of stuff beyond that, there is still quite a lot I haven't gotten too yet (Only looked into Spock's Beard for the first time this week, for instance). So if based on that list there's anything you think I should check out, speak up! Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Welcome aboard! This is a great resource for learning about prog. I am quite interested in the progressive metal side of things here but I dabble in other stuff as well. Enjoy your stay here and keep with the progressive metal too! We need more of us here! ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/dtd350 |
