Seventh Wonder Dream Theater Alter Bridge Sixx AM Coheed And Cambria Zeromancer Stone Sour

Disliking a Kamelot album with Tommy on vocals? Funny guy you Andreas. This isn't even possible in theory. :-) I was actually a bit afraid that you would slam me for confessing my sins, so i wasn't sure if I dared to press "Post". Now stop lurking the internets and go back to the studio and make...

I have to admit i downloaded the leaked Kamelot album. I just could not wait any longer. I just pre-ordered the album from iTunes to make up for my thievery. Anyone else that could not resist the leak? There are not many albums I would buy on iTunes because I am an Spotify exclusively listener...

Oh I am really looking forward to Tremonti project. And Stone Sour too. Didn't know about than one. Cannot only listen to prog all the time you know. I listen to all kinds of music (even Adele!), but for the time I prefer prog. By the way, Unisonic that Kazar reccomended was great, thanks for...

Thanks a lot for mentioning Beyond The Bridge. Haven't listened more than one time though the album but I strongly believe this will be a favourite :-)

Seems like Oceans Of Times drummer is 20 years old Baard Kolstad. He is some sort of world champions in drumming now. Check this out: And here he is playing some Seventh Wonder too: http://youtu.be/jVzbPEoXiy8

You are quite right that there isn't much prog metal going on here in Ålesund. Except for Circus Maximus recording drums their on Oceans Studions at Giske :-) And maybe Oceans of Time to? Or was that an other Oceans Studios? I'll probably have to travel to Oslo for concerts, but thats ok.

Oceans of Time was really cool. The chances for attending a great prog-metal concert i Norway this year is now even greater. Thanks :-)

@Aran I am located in Ålesund. Thanks for the band-reccommendations. Listening to Oceans Of Time right now. Prioritizing Norwegian bands first :-)

It is probably too late to tell my wife after twelve years that I have to go to ProgPower "because it's a tradition". Damnit! :-) Sounds like a good tradition. Keep it up. I am starting a new tradition right now: "I always go to at least one Seventh Wonder or Circus Maximus concert a year, if...

I see that I have only played Haken 17 times. I will try them out again right now! :-) What I have listened most to from the reccomendations here, that I hadn't listened to before, are Leprous and Subsignal. But mostly I still listen to Circus Maximus and Seventh Wonder. It's an addiction :-)...

By the way "Less showoff-ish" is a good thing. The showing off was what made me stay away from prog-metal until last year. By the way, I am not considering Seventh Wonder to be showing off, althougt they definately have the abilities :-)

I live in Norway. Although I would like so myself, I probably won't be going to any ProgPower festival. With 3 kids, a wife, a busy job and a cat :-) I am having trouble making this happen. But I am really hoping to catch a Circus Maximus consert here in Norway this year, after their new album...

I haven't read yet it but I have definately been considering it. I think it looks kind of expensive though.

I have just started to try out Haken. They were reccomended in a post on Dream Theaters forum that was linked to here a while ago (The "Heirs"-tread). To be honest i don't remember what I thught about Haken when listening them. I have tried out too many bands lately, so I cant remember which is...
