 They are pushing music further IMO |
Yeah, definitely (SARCASM!). Every song sounds like Genesis's The Waiting Room from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that's what they're trying to replicate. TMV sucks. It takes balls to say it, but it's nothing but whiney emo pap. TMV gets is b*lls licked while amazing bands like Porcupine Tree and Primus get sh*t on. Frankly I'm sick of it.
I'm not trying to start an argument, but what exactly is not progressive about the Mars Volta? |
There is nothing 'progressive' about one giant jam session packed with pseudo-sci-fi sound effects and severe distortion to mask the lack of talent all around. Long live ATDI, DOWN WITH TMV!

There's nothig not prog about TMV, in fact it is the most progressive group of that list, the only problem is that there's a lot of people who hates them just because they don't understand it or think they're too noisy, so they try to attack them by saying they're not progressive.

Well this poll shows the character of some of our posters here. Anyone who thinks Dream Theater, Glass Hammer, or Spock's Beard are not progressive should really reevaluate what they think progressive music is.
If Dream Thetaer isn't progressive, why don't we get rid of every progressive metal band on this site?
If the Who isn't progressive why don't we elimiate the Proto Prog categories? Well that may be a good idea.

I made this poll under the idea that you would only vote for as many bands once. I believe you are the Dickhead making multiple votes. What kind of language is dickhead? It certainly isn't dramatic enough to make a difference.

Still, there are people that seem to think that "Scream Bloody Gore" by Death is a masterpiece of Prog, so that probably says a lot  |
Wait, weren't you all that far from being one of these people?

You really expect people to abide by that rule? No, they'll cast as many votes as needed, until the result pleases them.
BTW: More than one year ago, when I created my first poll, I also thought that the "multiple votes" feature works like you think it should.

While they are disliked (not by me), this isn't representative because somebody (or a few people) have wrecked the poll via the "vote all you want" option.

I voted for the Radiohead because to my warning you are Post Prog, lies the Who (and the Kinks) is Pre Hard Rock band (more the kinks) but in 60's were at the same time Pre Proto Prog but a lot more mattering for the future developments of the music. It does I do not believe it is worth for the Radiohead.
For always yours, Mandrakeroot.

I don't like any of those bands at all, but out of them I'd say only The Who and Queen are not progressive. Radiohead isn't really progressive either, just artsy.

43% of people who have rated the album on this site, apparently.
I haven't met any of them either, but if I did, I'd have one or two questions...
