Prog Rock/Metal Album DLC thread of threads!

[limelight_rush]

I would buy Pink Floyd (the best prog rock band ever), Yes , Jethro Tull, Supertramp & Genesis (as long as it is from Phil Collins era) dlc.

I wouldn't buy any "prog" metal dlc cos I don't like it, and can't listen to it without getting a headache.

Seriously The Beattles and Queen labeled as prog rock, of The Beattles I would believe you mentioned Sgt. Pepper album but Queen? And I do like Queen

Pink Floyd isn't a prog band but has prog albums, Sgt. Pepper's itself isn't prog, but is very influential on the genre, and Queen I and Queen II had enough prog songs on them to make the list

Collins-era Genesis isn't Prog.

OP updated with the newest thread, PART 8, Prog Rock Albums

WAT Coheed and Cambria's not on any of the threads?

[Tapede]

They really need to get a best of Symphony X pack rather than an album if they do to satisfy fans of their older music and those of their newer music which is heavier.

They are not exactly one of the best Prog. Example (unless you mean New Prog.)

But there are other New Prog bands on there like Mars Volta and Muse. Also, I believe that New Prog is, by definition, Prog. Saying it's not is like saying Thrash Metal isn't Metal.

I never said New Prog. is not Prog. just that Coheed And Cambria is not a good example of Prog.

Main thing is for Ayreon why choose The Human Equation over The Final Experiment?

Main thing is for Ayreon why choose The Human Equation over The Final Experiment?

Because it's a better album? As much as I got hooked on The Final Experiment when it just came out, it's still clearly a first effort of sorts, and I wouldn't even count it among the best three Ayreon albums (which are The Human Equation, Into the Electric Castle and The Universal Migrator, IMO). I like it better than Actual Fantasy, though.

My personal 'odd choice' in the last bunch would be Karma by Kamelot. It's not a bad album by any means, but I think Epica and/or The Black Halo would be more obvious and possibly better choices.

I'd personally pick Blackwater Park over MY, YH for Opeth and Traced in Air over Focus for Cynic too, but that's a matter of personal taste.
