I'm talking about Yes - 90125Dead
Horrible, bad 80s music in my opinion.



I love 90125. But hey..at least you admit it's prog!

I think it is a magnificent album.

Too electronic for my tastes.



It isn't electronic at all!!Confused

I guess electronic isn't the best word for what i'm trying to say. 
I just don't enjoy the tone of the instruments.
Drums are too boxy, guitars too cheesy (there's the word!) and all the songs seems like they are supposed to be singles. 
Just my opinion, it's not that it's a horribly made album. I just can't enjoy music  that sounds like 80s pop.

It's hard to think of albums I hate, because I usually go to my iPod to trigger my memory, and if I hate it, it probably ain't in there.

I find Prog in Big Generator...what is it if not? (Please don't give the tired answer "pop")
I don't believe it is totally "Pop" with it's odd time signatures. I remember when it was released and some folks had the reaction of  "well, this guy Trevor Rabin is replacing Steve Howe" and then it was  just downhill from there. The younger generation of YES fans heard Big Generator before The Yes Album and tried telling everyone around them how great it was while the YES fans from the 70's thought "Yeah, and my mother is a werewolf". It's the seperation of generations again. Like at the Genesis concerts when the band begins to play their 80's material. The 70's crowd take a walk outside of the concert hall to smoke cigars. It's all retarded and many times debates over albums like this stem from that.

Another one I would have to mention would be Jeff Beck's flash.
Really disappointing for me. I've loved everything else he has done. (especially the new album)

I have to say I find them very dull a lot of the time, though they have some killer songs across their total output and Lateralus I reckon had a great first three-quarters before it trails off for me. 'Repetitive' is a good description too - which is probably what I find boring about them.

Catfish Rising is an average 90s rock/blues-ish tinged album. I wouldn't deem it prog, other than Tull being slotted in the prog genre.
yeah well maybe that's why it kinda stinks

^If you don't like disc 1 you should try disc 2. It is totally different.

I've tried to listened to Dream Theater's "Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence" on a few occasions. I can't make it through the first disc.
