You can probably guess the band I am about to refer to, can't you?




If you know the band, you definitely know the album of theirs to which I am about to make reference...




Ready?




I am sooooo looking forward to this....

'The Sentinel' by Pallas is one of the greatest albums ever recorded and PWNS the entire creative output of every 1970's so-called prog band



... 'ang on...


It's about damn time you said it.

I've always wondered why we've featured progressive bands and Pallas here.

Never...Ever mention Pink Floyd in the same sentence as rush. GOT IT!

The Mars Volta are NOT gods and should not be worshipped as they are nothing less than an experiment by a**holish ex-members of the greatest band of the '90s.

Frank Zappa did drugs until the law made him stop; then he got paranoid and denounced drugs altogether, lying a lot in the process.

Progressive Rock is the musical version of the acid trip!

YES are often smacked around, but I think they were one of the most geniune prog acts of all time!

Gentle Giant sucks!
So does Dream Theater!

Geddy Lee's voice is just fine by me!

Steve Wilson is the next Todd Rundgren, and Porcupine Tree is the next Pink Floyd!

I LOVE EXCLAMATION POINTS AND ALL CAPS!

Roxy Music IS PROG AND WHOEVER DOESN'T THINK SO CAN STICK A WATERMELON IN THEIR MOUTH!!!

Radiohead, London Suede, David Bowie, Ours, AND Nada Surf ALL HAVE AT LEAST PROGRESSIVE TENDENCIES WHETHER YOU'RE TOO MUCH OF A FOOL TO ADMIT THAT OR NOT!

IT'S NOT Peter Gabriel, OR Steve Hackett's DEPARTURE WHICH KILLED Genesis ARTISTICALLY. THEY WERE ESSENTIALLY ALL PART OF A PUZZLE THAT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN TORN APART!!! THE ABSENCE OF ANY 1 OF THE MAGNIFICENT 5 IS A TRAGEDY!

COLLINS BELONGS ON DRUMS!

Porcupine Tree will reach the mainstream/popular market in 2 albums time, and when they do, the face of music on this planet will change forever. That is, if they don't sell out along the way. Which Wilson won't allow.


Can't wait!

Uuuuuuuhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!...............

This is supposed to be unsubstanciated

Here your statement has far toooooo much truth and substance to qualify as valid in this thread

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
