Czech and Slovak Prog Metal

Actually, if I remember correctly, this Slovak band has some progressive tendencies: http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/signum-regis.aspx

It's first and foremost European-sounding power metal, though.

	As much as I'd love to help, this metal scene isn't one I'm too familiar with - I've really only heard a handful of Czech and Slovak metal bands. I can't think of any progressive ones I'm familiar with either. ..and I'm supposed to be a progressive metal expert! Looks like I've got some homework to do!

	I'm curious about my country's Metal music that would be "enough" to qualify for inclusion on ProgArchives. I already suggested and was successful with bringing on PA two of them - Master's Hammer and Asmodeus. Yesterday, I was listening Slovakian Endless Main and I have to say that it's great music. Even more, I wasn't aware that there are that good albums on SK scene (Metal is not that abundant in our southern neighbor). http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/TopAlbums.aspx?lstReleaseTypes=1&lstCountries=55,211&MinNRatings=1&MinAVGRatings=1&MaxResults=100#list There are some albums rated, but not that many, as this chart contains 28 Czech and 1 Slovak albums rated. From the look at this database, I would say that there is 1-2 dozens Slovak artists and as much as over hundred of Czech ones. I am from Czech Republic, which means I can understand fluently Slovak as well (this skill comes with birth ), but my knowledge about CZ/SK metal culture is very limited. However, I have unique access to material (information, borrowing shops...) so that's my advantage. So, what artists can we bring from here to PA, which ones would be good ones ?
