	^You are correct. Answer 2 does contradict answer 1.

	Answer 1: I couldn't care less. If it's good music, it's good music, it doesn't need a label. (I don't even like the term "prog" - "progressive" for a genre that had its best times in the 70s, with fans that were getting all upset when bands actually progressed to doing something else in the 80s?) Answer 2 (which actually contradicts answer 1): I always thought that I'd have to stretch things to find even 10% prog (in a "good proggy music" sense ) in David Bowie's huge discography, and I have a hard time understanding why all his albums get hundreds of mostly good ratings here. (I understand somewhat better how some people like his non-prog stuff in a non-prog way, but still...)

	It is all in the way that she twerks in multiple time signatures.

	Two types come to mind: 1) Anything that is minimalist or ambient. 2) Artists that are just guitar, bass, and drums. No keyboards or synths included; no winds or brass instruments either.

	The standard question is: Why is this not Prog? The opposite, but less used is: How is this Prog? What are some Prog bands or albums that you question to be Prog?
