Hi,

The main reason why I never liked the comment about the death of progressive music, is because in the 70's, 80's and 90's I did not lose touch and kept on listening to new things AND I was there at the "beginning" and just about heard many of those things and had the albums! So by the time I hear TD with Jerome, in Seattle, it was ... something new, and there were a lot of far out pieces in that show (220 Volt Live) that a lot of folks did not like ... it was a master stroke for a band continuing on and not falling apart. Same for KS, and some of his work ... his "digital" stuff really took off and went nuts and I loved it ... the "progression" never died.

There might have not been a "lot" of big names, but I could tell you that I was hearing Queensryche, and things like Dream Theater, which my roommate had in his own collection! So it's hard for me to relate to PA having it listed or not ... the subdivisions drive me nutz as it is!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Being born in '94, the only good music I remember listening back in the day was Jamiroquai.
Still today I only own a few dozen albums from the 90's and since Ozric Tentacles, Porcupine Tree and Spock's Beard were already mentioned I can't add more. I have to explore more from Mansun, I very much enjoy "Six".

Outside PA, I heard a fair share of 90's Punk but I rarely listen to it these days. I think I'll go with Rage Against The Machine, I still enjoy the first two albums.

I should probably mention Eric Clapton: Unplugged. It was the album that made me want to learn the guitar.

And I love Bondage fruit but what memorable experiences I've had with a fishbone have been of the painful stuck-in-my-throat variety. I think I've heard of the band, but then I could be mixing it up with Fish and the hard rock band Boned, or perhaps I'm thinking of Country Joe and the Fishbones.

^ I didn't know of that Placebo. I have the albums of the 70s Belgian jazz-rock Placebo in my collection.

The debut is something of a classic indie rock album. The track Nancy Boy is probably their only well remembered track. I tend to have a 'thing' for 3 piece bands Smile

Checking it out, thanks. The first one to come up on youtube was "Nancy Boy", not surrisingly. The vocals are reminding me of a rather famous three piece band, The Shaggs! Just kidding... Geddy Lee with Rush.

Mr. Bungle's Disco Volante is a massively multi-genre freak which was an excellent application of the prog mindset in the spirit of the time.
Goldie's Timeless and DJ Shadow's Endtroducing are seminal electronica works that continue to be highly rewarding atmospheric journeys to this day.
