I guess I'll have a go with this as an album cover:



Which kind of rock and subgenre in PA would you think that the above image most likely would be associated with?

I'm thinking Canterbury Scene, Crossover Prog, Eclectic Prog, Experimental Metal, Post Metal, Heavy Prog, Indo-Prog, Raga Rock, Jazz Rock, Jazz Fusion, Krautrock, Neo-Prog, Post Rock, Prog Folk, Progressive Electronic, Progressive Metal, Psychedelic Rock, Space Rock, RIO, Avant-Prog, Rock Progressivo Italiano, Symphonic Prog Tech Prog Metal, Extreme Prog Metal, Zeuhl. but feel free to mention any that I didn't consider. Maybe Eclectic, or crossover cause of how the equations kind of crossover from one side to the other. It's also pretty Neo Prog-rammer, cause it's got numbers and so does Matrix code, and Neo was a programmer. I'll go with Extreme, cause that mathematics looks pretty extreme to me. If we had an Equations Rock category, then I might go with that. By the way, math rocks!

 
The obvious answer is Math Rock. But it could also be an alternative cover to Van der Graaf Generator's "A Grounding In Numbers". Also, Van der Graaf Generator's "H To He, Who Am The Only One" contains the nuclear reaction equation for the fusion of hydrogen to helium (hence the name of the album).
 
 
 


For that you rise to the top of the class and get the crown joules. And since energy is measured in ergs, generators convert mechanical and chemical energy into electricity, and we have the famous e=mc2 equation, "Man Erg" also fits.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Pretty good


Very nice. I can't match it.

It's not Hart's The Doe and Buttermilkfly or any Fawn Fables album, nor is it Buck-it-Head's Thidwick the Big-Hearted Milk Chugging Moose, nor is it any one of the, rather obscure, Neo-Prog act Vennison Circle albums, and it certainly isn't Safe as Milk by Captain Buckhart.

I think it's the artwork for Bullrush 's (with Giddy-up Lee on bass, trout, and codboards) live Exit... Stag Left, which would put it in Hairy Prog.

My favourite Seussian album is the live album, Horton Hears the Who!

But to answer the OP a little more properly, I think it's not Neo-Prog or Prog Folk per se, it's Neofolk.

Here is a little game i made. I posted a painting here. If this was a prog rock album cover what genre and what band would it be. Is it folk prog or Neo Prog. That for you to decide. This painting was made by Dr.Seuss here is the link  https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.drseussart.com%2Fthe-facts-of-life&psig=AOvVaw2SJRGAPzMXIcZ07pB3RBI6&ust=1584547793828000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCLC6udbyoegCFQAAAAAdAAAAABADImage result for dr seuss midnight paintings
