What we need is not individual genres for every album, but for every song.

Lots of posts with pics doesn't really add anything much of value to discussion and can get in the way of in-depth conversation. Also, for some it makes page load difficult and some have limited data.   It comes across as very spammy. Also double-posting and triple-posting is commonly frowned upon at internet forums. People have mentioned this, but you don't seem to care. Be sparing or action will be required.



Thanks. Those habits have become VERY annoying!

Almost every song of Rush~Grace Under Pressure has been on the FM radio.....Add Subdivisions and New World Man from Signals.
Lets see Peter Gabriel, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Saga, Alan Parsons Project, Yes, Asia.....all had hits that were played on the FM radio, many still are.

It's interesting. I remember hearing "heat of the moment" and other songs from the first Asia album(as well as their second but mostly "don't cry") as well as tracks by Saga, The Alan Parsons Project and stuff from 90125. I don't hear any of that stuffd on the radio anymore (not even "owner" believe it or not or if I do it's quite rare). I would say about at least 70 percent of the people who know about this stuff these days or listen to it are prog fans. The one exception might be 80's Genesis which I still hear on the classic rock station quite a bit and  a few songs by Rush.

I don't listen to it often, but we do have a Classic Rock station here that I have my car radio tuned to.  It will turn on when I am switching CDs or if I don't have a CD in and they generally play decent music. I've heard Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Rush, Queen, Asia, and Yes amongst others, but also they now play the classic grunge of Pearl Jam, Nirvana and Soundgarden too.

......I hear a TON of grunge here LOL. I'm not a Nirvana fan, but I tend to hear more Pearl Jam than Nirvana but makes sense as they are still together.
Seattle is a huge classic rock market and metal.

Don't hear Saga as much or Parsons, the others are common.

Nirvana had lots of hits, but they weren't prog. Wink

Muse was what I was gonna say. Yes the hits are generally the less prog stuff, but then there is Knights Of Cydonia.
Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

Also, say what you want about the legitimacy of it, but Green Day's Jesus Of Suburbia meets the bare minimum to be considered prog rock imo.

Sorry for my belated reaction all, but some of posts with meaningless pics have been hidden. Dead
