    Ash Ra Tempel

    I saw Manuel perform in Philly a few years ago. He was very good. I'm not too big into the electronic side of things with a few exceptions. I think the first Ash ra Tempel album is really great. I've always sort of somewhat jokingly said that on side one they invented heavy metal and on side two...

    Rock/Metal Sub Genres

    My favorite is what would be called "progressive rock." Please see my thread on an introduction to progressive rock for more information and a detailed description on the genre. I also like what I refer to as "album rock." This is a catch all term and maybe a bit vague but I like music that...

    Dave Matthews Band (Official Thread)

    I'm not sure why this band has been posted here. I feel very strongly that DMB does not belong in the progressive rock forum. In what alternate universe is DMB considered prog? THey are a good band but they are not prog rock. I doubt any fan of prog would consider them as such either. Please...

    Worst Metal Albums?

    Maybe not really metal but I thought Aerosmith's "rock in a hard place" was pretty lame.

    CRF's Greatest One Hit Wonders Voting Thread ((Polls Are Open))

    I meant to include Soft Cell's "tainted love" but for some reason left it off. TOo bad it's only fifteen and not twenty. Oh well. I missed a few others too. Of course it depends on what country you live in. Someone on here included Golden Earring's "radar love" but that was a hit in the US and...

    Rolling Stone Top 10 Prog Albums

    Re: Rolling Stone Top Ten Regarding Rush: Their first eight albums or so certainly were prog(ok maybe not the first two). If not what would you call them? They were very heavy but also very prog sounding from about the third album up through around Signals then they became more new wavish and...

    Outrageous Acts By Bands

    If we count off stage stuff then we must include some of Keith Moon's tirades like when he blew up a toilet(possibly more than once). I think he drove a car into a swimming pool or something too. You could almost have a whole thread just about all the crazy stuff he has done. Then of course...
