Topic - "Traditional" Progressive metal Posted: 16 Jun 2011 at 12:06am By Charcaroth |
Just using the words "traditional" and "progressive" together will seem like an oxymoron for some people, but all I mean by that is your standard "Dream Theater/Fates Warning" bands. Not just the rip-offs, but bands who play in that general style of mixing classic prog rock with traditional metal or power metal. A lot of people are probably tired of this, but I'm just now really delving past the obvious bands and hoping to find some more gems. I'll list as many as I can find or think of to get started, including the obvious.
