Swedish Prog. Bands
 

How do you explain the appearance of this big quantity of the new excellents Prog. Bands in a so short time came from Sweden , a country without a Rock Progressive past?
Excellent Prog. Groups like: The Flowerkings, Carptree, Beardfish, Pain of Salvation, Kaipa, etc...........?

Don't forget Black Bonzo and Ritual, both are playing at ROSfest '08. Also from Sweden is Anekdoten and Galleon among many more.

Re: Swedish Prog. Bands
 

Anekdoten, Angalard, Galleon, Isildurs Bane, Par Lindh, Zello...

Probably my 2nd favorite 'region' for music after Japan, but maybe as much as South America, but then again there's the Italian stuff... oh @#$%^&!
