It seems like being heavy is the new wave of prog metal. Although new Symphony X is great as the new DT, prog metal seems to be steering away from being flat out progressive. Yes, there are still a ton of bands doing it (Suspyre, Heart Of Sun, etc....) but it seems prog metal bands are leaning to a heavier sound. Is progressive getting re-gressive? Anyone here see my point? Is it a money thing? or are bands getting bored? LOL. Just a thought, I don't want to start a bashing session, It just seems of late like prog bands are afraid of being considered "light". I happen to love Stride and bands of that style of prog, it has all the elements I personally enjoy, STRIDE is just an example.
