Gratz, this list is like a Bible to me, sometimes I go back to take a look. I imagine that your large conception of prog music comes from Prog Archives, isn't it?

And add Circus Maximus the next time you update here

Thanks man, I've grown up using Prog Archives and it has exposed me to much of my favorite music, just like this site. I want to wait until the new Circus Maximus comes out and see if it is better than "The 1st Chapter"... then we shall see where it goes on the list.

I second this. I was a bit surprised to find Moonsorrow's V album but not any Circus Maximus. I can see some prog influences sometimes, but Moonsorrow is not that known for it.
As for CM's new album Nine, I find it nowhere as good as The 1st Chapter, sadly enough.

Edit: Nevermind about Moonsorrow. Missed the 'some orthodox choices' part

Haha I promise I will add Circus Maximus on the next revision of the list in a week or so... but I still do love that new album

Suppose you decided to add bands not featured on MS? Who would you add out of curiosity?

There are a few on my other list but I would probably add the likes of Yes, Pink Floyd, Gentle Giant, Camel and some of the better Italian prog.

Some great albums in here, some I don't know, some I don't like, a great list anyway
It's funny how people suggest more bands and albums like the list is missing something, like 261 album list is not more than enough?!

BTW, what's avantgarde about Blackfield?

Sadly this isn't the case. While this might be a great list as well as guide, I think the last album on the list is also the last album that has been added to the list. I always prefer some kind of order, whether it's alphabetical, by year, genre etc., or even by preference. For this list I would say ranking them alphabetically or by year are good options. Hell, by year would even be the best because that way you can see the "evolution" of progressive music (sure, lots of different genres to be found here, but you get the idea). But I doubt the list creator will listen to us (which is a shame since it's the most popular list on MS and it can still be improved if you ask me).

I have it in the order I think someone getting into progressive metal should listen, those at the end I still need to find a spot for.

Introspekrieg, I also used to really like quoting people like that in one message. The bad thing however is that only the first user you quote gets a notification. Don't know why that's the case. Psykometal pointed this out to me a while ago, as I was doing it as well. If you already knew this, then just ignore this message.

After comparing the two in a tough decision, I feel "Phlegethon" should be the representative on this list.

Yup, that's pretty much my thoughts on them too. It's a shame Asphodel left though.
