Styx can create some very progressive soundscapes.

For instance, Father O.S.A. and The Serpent is Rising.

they don't suck... they just aren't really prog at all. Though some of the stuff Claypool has done outside of it might qualify, though we moved that out of AR as well LOL

^ "Primus sucks" was a catchphrase the band used themselves in the early 90's.  Hence the winking eye.

I think they should be moved to RIO/Avant. Much of their material is very avant-gardistic and experimental. Just listen to those weird bass lines and quirky and noisy guitar solos for example!
 
Oh, gotta go listen to them now!Approve
