So R&P ers Help Darth Out Would Ya?


I'm looking for new bands to get into at all times so I though today I'd ask for some recommendations
Criterions
The band must be
eaither Prog Metal or Rock
Older than 1990
Now, fire away and fall back

Orange
Why bother answereing if You didn't read My criterions??

I despise modern music, I think it's utter talentless drivel

If You like it more power too Ya

Fates Warning
Zebra
Angel Witch

Edit: Yes I've heard of Praying Mantis and I too love Zebra. I've seen Zebra live a number of times as they like to tour Long Island, NY and I live in Connecticut.

Prog Metal or Rock older than 1990....i think one of the obvious answers is Queensryche, and since no one had answered yet when i clicked this i'll say that one, lol, plus, they're really nice guys so...

Tesla
Bram Tchaikovsky
Kingdom Come
Giuffria
Marillion

RARE EARTH
RARE BIRD
MARILLION
German Band B A P
Bjelo Dugme
Jakarta

Beasts of Bourbon,Darth."From The Belly Of The Beasts".

Hey Darth,

These guys might not be up your alley but still, they rocked.
They still do some rare shows.

Then again, maybe you encountered this little best kept secret from Atlanta back in the early MTV days.
Vintage stuff from the day.

If ya find that you might want some tracks, I'll make em available.

Edit:

The Producers

Whoever did their myspace is a script junkie. The page does extract.. eventually.

Remember now, these guys were early 80's and were new wave (not punk). Probably too pop for you but they were pro players and worked their butts off. They did 340 shows in 14 months during 1981/82 and had a couple semi-hits.

The Charlatans (old U.S. band...not the new UK one): http://wm02.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=am...

I'm more of a metal person than rock- so here are some good progressive (older) metal bands and albums:
Voivod- especially Killing Technology and Nothingface
Fates Warning- Parallels and Perfect Symmetry
Vanden Plas-Colour Template

12/8 redeeming edit: Darth - honestly though check out The Blasters and start off with "Dark Night" - song link below (youtube) no video just words

Other than that, from seeing your answers from other questions throughout the last week, I'm not so sure I could name anyone else you've not heard of...
