I got "post-prog", pretty accurate i guess. Though a lot of the choices were not subtle at all in what result they would bring about. It was hard not to "cheat". Twas fun though, thanks  |

Tech metal? I don´t even like Opeth!
Anyway, some of the answers were quite funny

Heh, Symphonic, totally worth it to have the cover of Brain Salad Surgery on my Facebook page. Something else to confuse the drones of people that I barely remember from high school who suddenly want to be my Facebook friend.

It's not post-rock btw... It's Nu-Prog or Post-Prog which isn't a title used here very much. But yeah, it wasn't mean t to be subtle! ha!

Not interested in Facebook. Not interested in joining and logging in.  It took me years to join this site. Are we so ignorant of our own tastes that we have to take a quiz to find out what we like? I guess it's a way of exploring the vast options available to us in this world of plenty, but it's not a game I choose to play. That's what Prog Archives is for!  ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Nice quiz! I got Extreme/Tech Metal, even though my favorite sub-genre is Symphonic. I guess tech metal fits better with my personality. |

| f**king post prog... I'm the guy who likes evocations of spaceships on Atlantis, I'm the guy who has visions of light triumphing over dark, not whatever the f**k Radiohead is on about! I AM SYMPHONIC GODDAMIT! (the light triumphing over dark was symphonic, right? :P) |

This is the first Facebook quiz I ever took. Post-Prog (AKA Nu-Prog) A genre born within the new millennium. These bands combine modern music with the creativity of classic prog. You represent a cooler image for the genre versus the "geeky" sci-fi-induced acts of the past. Big groups include Tool, Radiohead, and The Mars Volta. If this is genre it means that you are in a sense a radical. You pay your respects to the elders and certainly learn from their ideology but you take it and twist it into your own. You are also likely younger and therefore very popular. |

For people like to subdivide Progressive music into millions of different sub-categories... This will tell you which one YOU belong in, but will not necessarily determine your musical taste. Will you belong within the ethereal threshold of Space Rock or do you dwell in the blackened pits of Extreme Progressive Metal? ------------- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dr-Neil-Kobrin/244687105562746" rel="nofollow - SUPPORT MY FATHER AND BECOME A FAN Jacob Kobrin Illustration |

Thank you sir for your invaluable contributions to this thread. The forum would never go on without your opinions of Facebook and the quizzes you can find it. I salute you sir.
Anyways.... I got Tech/Extreme prog metal, like I would expect. -------------

I found the quiz more a way of seeing what subgenre I'd be lumped into if the answers to the questions actually had anything to do with my taste in music...and a way to pass some time. I guess my prog tastes by looking through my collection though, and by what I listen to most often.  ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Salty_Jon" rel="nofollow">

cool
Symphonic Prog
 The genre most synonymous with classic prog! The elements defined within this genre created the framework for the majority of other prog genres to follow. Famous bands of this make include Yes, Genesis, and Emerson Lake & Palmer. If you are Symphonic Prog that means that you are an emotionally charged, though intelligent individual. You are always very nice, though a little pretentious... You need to get your ideas out and even if you are a little self-indulgent in the length of your presentations, you always have a purpose. Also, you are very (perhaps overly) dramatic and your mood changes often from happy to sad. ------------- Follow me on twitter @memowakeman |
