Since this is a prog metal thread I'll just say they were rejected twice on Prog Archives as being prog metal.....even though other bands there are very similar.
Carry on....... :)

Some of my favorite Lovecraftian prog and metal and psych.

BOC-'Old Gods Return'

Arzachel-'Azathoth'


AStra- 'The Black CHord'
14 minutes of heavy weird bliss.....both of their lps are worth having imho...sadly they broke up a few years back and became Birth.... who are also good but AStra was the best imho

Shub Niggurath-'Yog Sothoth'


Actually considered Zeuhl...a weirder version of Krautrock ,but I thought they might be an interesting post.

I expected Manowar on the list.

RIP Ross The Boss
Not on Prog Rock Archives and wiki has them as heavy metal/power metal......

To be honest I have never heard their music.
I just sampled 4 or 5 of their longer tracks and they do have some prog metal leanings...in fact a few songs reminded me of Iron Maiden who are listed on PA.
