The guys at work are always poking fun at me for liking prog. You know, while they are listening to rap.

And that's without considering how much makeup KISS has put on through the years. There's going to be some ridiculous sterotypes in every music genre.

Words of wisdom. I have never apologized for loving prog, and I never will. And it’s totally bs that prog stands in the way for love affairs. In my student days, I knew a beautiful, intelligent and witty girl called Mette (she studied geology). I taught her bridge and prog, and while listening to Pawn Hearts one evening, she said that if she could compose music, that kind of music was what she would have made. And a punk girl, who obviously had a crush on me, said that she hated Genesis, but she loved it when I played The Cinema Show and Ripples on the guitar. She also bragged about being able to play in 15/8 on drums. How pretentious is that? As Mosh has already pointed out, the punks used at least as much drugs as the prog fans. I also see this argument about the silly outfits. Like the punks wore less silly outfits themselves. And for some reason or other, many of them seem to love Bowie. OK, ref, time for bed. |

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Prog is back. What should the mainstream matter to us? The music is there. It serves a purpose (albeit a pretty trivial one). Prog is thriving, experimental music is thriving, rock and roll is thriving, all of them are thriving on the internet, in local music scenes - and above all, in the hearts and minds of the people who love them. If anything, quality rock music is becoming more and more like folk music - kind of a folk music for the masses, if you will. That might be a very good thing. |

THIS. The Sheffield guy writing this doesn't know misery and isolation and self hatred. At least that's what my infinite love of Prog rock feeds from. I'm gonna go feel sad and drink a smoothie... Someday... Prog rock will come back. Maybe the masses will get sick of hearing the same god damn song year after year. I feel like music in the mainstream has not changed one bit since the year 2000, when hip hop started being just as popular as Britney Spears. God it's all evil. I hate it all. I am afraid that I want the world to burn. We are nothing but heaps of trash waiting to die anyway. I hate music. But oh man I love this website :D |

Mosh, it’s not that I disagree with your views on the review, but why do you tell us to shut up, while it’s OK for you to discuss it?

No worries. I have no illusions or delusions about teachers, including myself. The sad part is, that you will never be able to see the pearls amidst all the swine that you think you see!

The hardest thing to teach all you guys about stuff like this ... is the old adage, that was called the "deep throat" thing in the old days ... and you know what that means? SHUT UP! This is what made a couple of films famous ... the church talking and condemning it, and everyone went to see it to see what the hoopla was all about! The more the church condemned it the more millions the film made! How intelligent for the church to help the devil make the money, hey? Whose side is the church on, anyway? Morons like that, don't even know music! Arsenic-holes like that have no idea that if Yes and Genesis was weed, that the bands he liked were on Coke ... of course, he was also given some from the girls in the bandwagon ... so he can say nice things. On top of it, his music knowledge is stupid ... like none of that has ever been done in classical music, or any other music or jazz ... but it tells you how screwed up the media is, in making sure that the top ten sells and nothing else does ... by trashing it senseless ... and we're too ducking stupid, to ignore it! Let it die ... please remove the link and drop the story ... it's not worth the discussion ... and as my dad used to say ... DIRT BELONGS UNDER YOUR FEET! Edited by moshkito - June 19 2013 at 08:22 |
