00s prog =/= 70s prog

And that's probably because music has....well, progressed. While some of us don't think it's necessarily a good thing (here's looking at you Walter, ol' buddy Wink).

Seriously though, since you said "progressive rock", I'm going to assume you mean artists that have progressed music in some way. Was that a cliche enough answer? Tongue

Yeah, you're looking to much into it.

Is there a reason for it? I've always loved prog. But I've never known why it's called "progressive". Unless you're talking about most of the guitar riffs from Rush there isn't anything that progresses. In fact, it's probably the opposite. Maybe I'm just thinking way too much into it. But I've looked it up, haven't found anything. Anyone know why it's "progressive" rock?
