Considering how ProgPower USA has been branching out and how much Enslaved truly progressed over the last decade, do you guys think they would do well at ProgPower?
I was just listening to Axioma Ethica Odini today and couldn't help but wonder the type of reaction they might get at the fest. Enslaved has progressed more than a lot of bands that have played the festival before. The black metal thing is in the past, really (though they still use the death/black vocals), but the combination of progressive metal, extreme, psychdelic, 70s prog, avant-garde technically makes them a true candidate for the fest.
It's no wonder this band has been growing with each release, and releasing some of the finest metal around. The only band that got more Album of the Year awards this year was Accept. Thoughts?
