Progressive metal (often calledprog metal) is a sub-genre ofheavy metal music that mixes the powerful,guitar-driven sound of metal with the complexity ofprogressive rock, which includes oddtime signatures and complicatedinstrumental playing. Some progressive metal bands are also influenced byjazz fusion andclassical music. Like progressive rock songs, progressive metal songs are usually much longer than other metal songs, and they are often themed inconcept albums. As a result, progressive metal is rarely heard onmainstream radio and video programs.[1]
