Worst prog band?

Yep real progressive music is all about making new music by combining diffrent genres and rhytms. And that what yes and genesis did in the 70's they made new music that where never before made by any band. If you compare for example jazz in the 60s it would sure sounded much less complicated that jazz in the 00s put that is a natrural progression. 70s yes and genesis was extremly experimental for the time but ofcourse prog is a genre that devolps fast and that a newer band is more experimental than the 70s band goes without saying. If a band like fantomas has been relesed in the 70s nobody would understand them and just think that they where just another crap band and they properbarely never make and album and work as janitors. It would be like releasing black metal 60s...nobody would care for it.

Fantomas also said: Genesis and Yes are the worst prog bands ever. seems you dont follow your own standard Of course I do. I'm a fan of Experimental Music, let us say. As so, I think that Yes and Genesis are bad bands. TO ME they're boring, because it's not the kind of sound that I like. In my "group" of people I'm not the only one.

but you like James LaBrie?  whats experimental about him??????

True progressive?!

If it has not been for yes or genesis the prog of today would never have sounded like it does..they managed to create a complety new language of music listened to by hundreds of artists. Its just like jimi hendrix although there are millions of guitarists that are better than him techincaly you would not have such a high level of guitar playing. So yes, genesis, king crimson is the cornerstones of what we define as prog music...its ok if you dont like them but calling them crap is calling the entire idea of progressive music crap and you might as well go back to listening to your michael jackson albums.

What a fantastic answer it must have taken you long time to thing out something so constructive as that. Anyway i dont like jimi hendrix but if i say he was crap it would be like saying alot of artists that i actually do love is crap and it would really just be a silly thing to say anyway because music would never be the same without him and i might as well say everybody that played guitar music was crap. But fair enough you are obviosolly one of those that will never understand what true progressive music is all about.
