What about progressive rock?

[Melkor]

I only want to know if there is someone out there who listens to this king of music: Genesis, Yes, Emerson Lake & Palmer, and other 70s/80s great bands...
Bye!

I'll do a list for now - it's too late for coherent descriptions (2:30 AM): King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Gentle Giant, Yes, Genesis, Camel, Magma, Henry Cow, Univers Zero, Anekdoten, Happy The Man, Anglagard, Heldon, Gong, Art Zoyd, Van Der Graaf Generator/Peter Hammill, Art Bears, etc etc in no particular order.

I like progressive as Opeth do it, mixing it with death and doom.

 

[WildHunt]

I like some progressive rock and metal
Opeth for sure
Therion is pretty progressive
Spiral Architect is pretty interesting
as for old 70's bands, I love Uriah Heep and early Genesis
I loved the early Marillion stuff and now I like Porcupine Tree
and Pain of Salvation.

Some of this so called prog-metal I don't consider progressive
at all. If you do the same shit over and over and sound like
a hundred othe bands, how progressive it that?

 

[RETIREDTrapped]

Prog rock is boring.

Prog metal and technical prog metal is AWESOME.

Spiral Architect, Dream Theatre, Psychotic Waltz, Nevermore (POE).

 

[Claire's Horror]

I'm a lot into Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Rush, Yes, ELP and Genesis for that matter.

 

[bleedingskeptic]

why not take some rush, pink floyd, genesis, yes, and kansas along with my opeth, cynic, katatonia, and maudlin of the well?

 

[Obyeybyeogone]

Yeah I like it, but I prefer more progressive metal, I haven't listened to a lot yet though, Spiral Architecht, Symphony X, and a few others I have listened to and was very impressed. I also like Dream Theater.

 

[Claire's Horror]

prog metal has come to its limits, I think... most bands keep just repeating themselves.

 

[Kushantaiidan]

Camel rock, Angalard, Ozric Tentacles and others.

I love Prog metal, Like spiral Architect and stuff..

Well, I don't listen much anymore, since there is so much stuff since then that is harder, but that's my era of music when growing up.

Keith Emerson [IMO] is the most underrated keyboardist - I liked him more than Rick Wakeman.

ELP, Yes - good music

Other 70's/80's I've listened to (there has been a lot - I'll list a few):
Styx
Electric Light Orchestra
Kansas
Rush
Ten Years After
Winger (I have all 3 albums )
Kiss
Aerosmith
Led Zeppelin

BTW. has anyone heard the group/album Blackwater Park-Blackwater Park? I MUST hear them.
