Great, great, great!

Being Bulgarian, I am thrilled about Pantommind.

And Chaoswave - it is wonderful that they have progressed this far. I heard a demo a while back which was outstanding.

Hi,

To keep ProgPower Europe different from all the other events and gigs in Europe (you can go to a progressive metal related gig over here every day of you want), we always try to book a few bands that never played in The Netherlands, Belgium and Germany before. So we are very proud that we can confirm the Russian band NOVA ART! Never heard off? That is possible, this band completely surprised us with their promo package. This band will not attract extra people to our event, but it makes ProgPower Europe unique from all the other events in Europe. And we are sure that after their performance, NOVA ART will not be that unknow anymore.

Check out all the details at www.progpower.com !

[Petethedrummer]

I want to go to Progpower Europe now...

 

[Prog Maiden]

Wow, I'd rather go to this show than the one here. I'd kill to see Scar Symmetry, Communic and Mercenary together.

 

[The Invisible Guest]

That's shaping up to be a very nice lineup. I'd love to see Scar Symmetry.

Britt

Well since I only know who 2 of those bands are... I guess I have a lot of new groups to start listening to. Sigh. And here I thought I was starting to become a small metal encyclopedia.

 

[Creeps]

Checking out the bands now;

Comunic's vocalist reminds me of Warrell Dane, band's not bad at all - I like it.
Another Messiah... gothy/death, not for me
Pantomind didn't do too much for me, nothing really grabbed me
Voyager ehhh on the fence, with 2 gals in the band I was hoping for some female vocals, this dude sounds like somone stold his bike
Chaoswave Creeps like, Creeps like a lot hea-vy w/ female & male vocals.
Dark Suns zzzzz .. zzz
Ephal Duath ?!? I'll pass
Nova Art very cool, has a different vibe
Riverside finally I get around to sampling what all the hype is about and it's not for me, too slow and depressing, like Morrissey metal.
Textures after listening to Riverside this would wake you back up very cool arrangements, deathy vocal haters be fore-warned
Zero Gravity had no samples up I could find


Dreamscape, Mercenary and Scar Symmetry I'm already hooked on. Anyhow, those are the opinions of justsomemetalguy.

Most of those bands are completely foreign to me, no pun intended. Can someone here please let us know a little bit about each of those bands, please? Thanks!
