[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 236748, member: 2189"] Hey, I'm enjoying this too. Yeah I've heard of Flower Kings and also PFM and I'm a huge Eddie Jobson fan and UK. Another band of the 70's Prog scene I really liked was Renaissance. Not only did I enjoy Annie Haslam 5 Octave voice but their combination of rock and classical music and one of the best bass players in Jon Camp. Jon basically played a bass lead for lack of better description. Camel and Andy Latimer, oh yeah. That whole Canterbury music scene produced some of the best music with bands like Camel and Soft Machine. Being from the south we also were into the Dregs and Steve Morse. As Prog died out or went back underground in the latter 70's I delved back into classical as well as jazz and a lot of electronica like Tangerine Dream. But in the 90' in Europe there has been a resurgence of prog that I've really enjoyed and some here in the States as well. Djam Karat and Ozzric Tentacles are a couple of bands as well as Nebelnest from France. On the metal side having also grown up in the earliest of days with Black Sabbath, I've enjoyed a number of progressive metal bands like Dream Theater. Another fav of mine is the Swedish Death Metal band Opeth who have since 2001' incorporated progressive styles within their music and of course used the always haunting sound of a mellotron. It took a bit for me to get use to the death growls but once I realized the tension/release, dark to light concepts as vocally they went from death growls to clean vocals (ying/yang) I began to appreciate the voice more as a type of heavy distorted instrument rather than the nonsense I was thinking the first time I heard it. My kids are musicians and my 16 year old daughter is a pure shredder on guitar. Has no problem playing Metallica's Master of Puppets which IMO is a very progressive piece to Bach's Tocatta and Fuque in D. She is very much into Symphonic Metal in bands like Epica, Nightwish and more goth metal like Lucuna Coil and Evanessance.
