It's short for proggresive rock, obviously!Emoticons

What do you mean by politics and activism? Prog rock have many scopes, like rock music in general.

Wait a minute, the word "progg" rings a bell. I'm not sure, but I think to remember this word was associated with the Scandinavian left-wing activism of the 70's.

If it sounds to good to be true, you can bet it actually is too good to be true. But nevertheless... according to the Wiki entry, I would describe it as some sort of more or less prog-related, late 60's and 70's, left-wing politrock from Sweden. Some of the artists mentioned can be found on PA as well (Bo Hansson, Kebnekajse, Samla Mammas Manna).
