Hi
everyone, my name’s Francesco C. and I’m fond of prog metal. So I’d like to tell
you the reasons why I like this kind of music and why you should start listening to it.
Prog metal and prog metal famous bands
Prog metal (short for
progressive metal ) is a metal subgenre
born at the end of the ‘80s. This genre includes songs and albums very different from other
subgenres of metal rock. Bands which can’t be classified in any other subgenre
of metal are progressive bands, but anyway they have some similar features:
- The extreme complexity of the songs, which makes the members of those groups being very
good. They’ve been studying their musical instrument for a long of time
- Songs
generally can last from 4 minutes to more than 30 minutes, which is more than
the average.
- Prog
is influenced by lots of other kinds of music, such as jazz, classical and
other subgenres of metal. Songs
are usually in odd-time signature
