If you have bands you want added, send feedback and describe the band, they will check them out and if they belong on the station they will add them. I have done this many times and they have added many and if they don't fit they tell you why.

I pretend I didn't notice your malicious tone, let's talk for real in the forum, we really have something to discuss about our musical preferences and what we can do to listen to what we prefer and at the same time make a modest contribution to the quality of the music this radio station. What do you say I wish you a good night,

Jean-Michel, I'm sorry but you have to accept negative opinions too, because that's the only way we can build and improve anything in this world! All respect and admiration to those who build and improve this radio station.

We love progressive metal when it's melodic and accessible. We play A LOT of Dream Theater, Haken, etc.

Thanks Jean-Michel.

We don't take it as negative, we appreciate feedback and suggestions. But it is good for people to know what our focus is, "melodic and accessible."

...That says it all...It's a wonderful musical world that everyone should take advantage of and thank that it exists to help us rediscover the wonders of the past and those of the groups who still perpetuate this style now...

...and I have often had interactions with those who are behind the controls and who offer us a lot of generosity and flexibility. Remember that it's FREE and ad-free.
When I arrive at work at 5:45 am the first thing I do...is have a coffee.. 😅...well yes...Then I activate Prog Rock. I cut at 6 p.m....

I don't understand why I have to read negative reviews or complaints about the progressive or adjacent music choices and availability of requests. Note that since I subscribed to Prog Radio, I have noticed a lot of construction work and development of the site. This does not happen in one day...

Our criteria is simple "melodic and approachable." We shy away from things that are excessively experimental, harsh vocals, etc. We do play a fair amount of prog metal, however, from bands that meet that criteria nicely...Haken, Lepros, Opeth (at times), Dream Theater, DGM, etc. I just searched for "metal" on our website's search feature and it showed over 200 artists/albums.

I agree with the Admin (Kevin?). Harsh vocals (growling, screaming) would send me away. I generally like the mix here, which includes some prog metal.

Oh, and most of the metal bands we play are in The Crimson Hall, since The Wizard's Lounge is more focused on "classic prog" bands from the 60's and 70's. Progressive metal as a defined genre is something that developed after the heyday of classic progressive rock.

Feel free to email your suggestions to feedback@progradio.com. Use our Search feature in the app or on our website to see if we already play any particular band. You can also go here and search Alphabetically: https://www.progradio.com/bandsweplay

What bands? We play a fair amount of prog metal (Opeth, Dream Theater, etc.). We don't do harsh vocals though.

I have a few proposals that would be worth your consideration and that I find are missing from your offer. If you want, I can suggest some bands. It depends on your choice.

I'm sorry, but I notice that you don't pay attention to the progmetal genre, your list is missing many established progmetal bands, reference bands of the genre, they are bands that created the fusion between progrock and powermetal, bands that should not be missing from the your list.
