They have a ton of progressive elements. Ok, if that’s a questionable one, which I don’t think it is, I'll replace them with Ayreon.

Dunno, we've had this thread before.

I think the first time I put Pagan's Mind and Dream Theater (sort of). then we argued over the difference between Progressive and Neoclassical Metal.

My list might be kinda sketchy definition-wise (especially with those last 3, or 2 if you use my edit :roll: ), they're all bands that progress rather than bands that would fall into the "progrsesive metal" genre.

Oh how I love definitions

I'm sure we already had a discussion about which are the real prog. bands and which are the prog. power. I'm sure most of my prog. bands falls into the second category.

1. Pagan's Mind
2. Evergrey
3. Symphony X
4. Cloudscape
5. Ebony Ark

no order

DGM
Sun Caged
Pantommind
Communic
Adagio

Anyone has heard about Treat? I've heard only album Treat- Dreamhunter and i kinda like that music(I'd say melodic prog rock/metal of 80's). But records of this group aint easy to find, anyone could tell which other releases are worth to look for (and/or download :wink: ) ?

Btw, I added Yes b/c my girlfriend and I were listening to them last night and I forgot how much better they are compared to Dream Theater.
