Don't be silly.  No album killed Prog because it is still alive.
 
However, Punk damaged Prog's reputation.

DISCIPLINE? A TRICK OF THE TAIL? No way!

I must admit doubt starting creeping in with GOING FOR THE ONE, WIND AND WUTHERING and STORMWATCH, though...

Interesting idea here!Clap But I beg to differ on your choices.
 
 
The first four on your list look like the perfect culprits. You may want to include all of Curved Air and most of the post Carnegie Hall Renaissance albums.
 
Thhe next few are from the 80's and prog was already in a coma, so they don't count.
 
 
 
 
 
The Wall and ATOTT are not top be put in such a list, though
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Gah! You have a few good albums there, I.E. The Wall, and Discipline! If I may quote "Curse ya' fer breathin ya' slapshot idiot!"

Heh, but since I believe you mean the first wave of prog, I'd have to go 90125. I found it one day about a year ago, listened to it and gagged.

So which album is the one that made you finally realize that prog was dead?
