About Project

Progressive metal, a new step of music development, can be defined as an extra-systemic genre. It’s still far from mainstream; it is already not the underground, but yet not a subculture. No one can even clearly define what it in fact is.

Progressive music goes beyond the composition, knotted rhythms, unusual harmonies and performing techniques. Contemporary music is a complex of ideas leading people to the search of themselves.

Metal is the most radical and uncompromising form of musical arts. It accumulates not only the powerful energy, but also has the intellectual basis.

Progressive metal is performed by the professionals. And it requires the audience to be either professionals as they must be able to perceive, to understand and to love such a music.

People will never dare to leave the traditional understanding of music, if nobody works with them. Progmetal will stay too difficult to be due to illiteracy of the majority.

We must unite about one general idea – to create a loyal progressive community for getting the opportune environment to develop our music, because nothing stays the same and metal also is progressing and changes. Musicians should apply to listeners; audience must be able to easily find their heroes, and Progressive Metal as an industry must leave mainstream oppression.

That is what we are led by.
