This is insane! LOL   My God...I can't believe proggers would dislike the first ELO titled "No Answer". I mean of course I do believe it.....but why? It's a little BEATLES influenced, however there are pieces on there which remind me of Gentle Giant and along with the spoken word of Roy Wood.....it's a bizzare album for sure. This is truly a new one on me.

I suppose some extreme metal bands that isn't usually connected with prog  (Cannibal Corpse, Carcass, Napalm Death, Nasum, etc.).  Maybe some non-fusion jazz artists, but I'd think prog fans are open to different jazz forms.

Prog fans hate Arcade Fire? Do they hear what they listen to?
 
Anyways, I'm in love with Guided By Voices/Robert Pollard and various other lo-fi cult artists such as Daniel Johnston. Prog fans generally seem to hate no production stuff.
 
I too like Arcade Fire and Coldplay and pretty much every indie band that prog fans hate. I just think it's good stuff.

I'm with you on 80s Yes. Big Generator even more than 90125.

But liking DT, ELP and Rush is nowhere near a sacrilege here, unless we're talking about the hipster corners of PA, like the Shred. 


Exactly. Thats what i would say.

There are those that like and love all of these bands or their periods, but at least within there is also a lot of dislike for all of these bands too.

Country is one of the most hated genre because everyone just bandwagons and can't form their own opinions.

Outkast is cool
 
Seems to me that Prog fans are generally pretty open minded
