Ihsahn now plays a BM-flavored brand of progressive metal. His most recent album, angL is a treat. Asgeir Mickelson and Lars Norberg from Spiral Architect join him on drums and bass, respectively. Even Mikael Akerfeldt lent his vocals on one cut ("Unhealer").

Prog aint just bout changing time signatures.

ang nakakatawa sa current incarnation ng progressive music eh karamihan eh pare-pareho ang tunog. ano ang "progressive" doon? parang mas appropriate ata na "technical operatic rock / metal" ang tawag, dahil karamihan naman eh yun lang ang ginagawa.

yung prog nung 70's WAS progressive for its time. kaso 2008 na. ang prog ngayon eh dapat mas out there, mas pushing the envelope, mas malabo... hindi kailangang blatantly experimental, kaso kailangan tinutulak nito ang hangganan ng pagkaintindi ng tao sa kung ano ba ang musika at ano ba ang ingay lang. kaso actually medyo stagnant na ang mga tinatawag na prog ngayon.

don't take me wrong, meron pa ring mga prog na progressive talaga. kaso yung nangyayari eh pinagtatalunan kung prog ba ang band A o kaya band B, eh ang pinakaprogressive na ginawa nila eh kumopya sa ibang bandang prog na ang label. ano yun?

i agree. a lot of the bands mentioned dont really sound all that progressive to me. knowing how to count and play fast does not a progressive band make. the classic prog bands of the 70s utilized a lot of different textures, influences, and even instruments in their music and few of them even sounded remotely like each other. king crimson, yes, gentle giant, can, genesis, zappa...comparing a lot of today's "progressive" artists to them and i dont get it...

im sure there's a lot of truly progressive artists out there but so often its just another complicated counting band with shred guitar
