Progressive Metal by Jeff Wagner

Bazillion Points Publishing is to release the first definitive book on the elusive world of progressive metal, written by Jeff Wagner.

Scheduled for release in Autumn 2009, the book will detail the common movements of pioneers like Opeth, Watchtower, Voivod, Atheist, Dream Theater, Psychotic Waltz, Celtic Frost, Sigh, and Fates Warning — metal bands who have gone against the tide of tradition and conservatism. Linked by a desire to push heavy metal forward, these varied bands with a couple hundred other black sheep form the hard-to-pin-down category of “progressive metal.”
