Oh dear.... could you write 'no' without the flashing lights and give us an explanation for your conclusion?

Yeah, that annoying flashing "No" sign gives  me a headache and should come with a warning for those suffering from epilepsy. Ouch

You guys mental? Rush is not even close to prog rock. They were a pop or blues band at best with a strong fetish for the 7/8 time signature. A bunch of posers worshipped by the Dream Theater loving losers who like to wаnk to unchallenging derivative rubbish.

Okay, there might be such a thing like "progressive" in the most common use and sense. Tongue

It's unclear to me whether you are joking or being serious here. Confused

It does have other qualities, and I don't mind the track though.


That's funny, because I prefer nothing from that first album. It's their wannabe phase. I tired of it because Alex tries to channel Page so hard. I'm glad they got past that. For thick, crunchy, heavy riffs, that's what Tony Iommi and a few other guys specialize in!

I hid that annoying and potentially seizure-inducing flashing no post. This stuff is out of controll.

I'm not very expert in Rush. I don't dislike them so it could mean that they are quite prog, but they fail to kick with me. I can't say why. 
Anyway, I think that 2112 and the Plague of Lighthouse Keeper are prog enough so for me it's a yes.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Pretty much the same here. On a side note Genesis have never really pushed my buttons either for some reason, even though I consider them very influential and giants of the genre, in particular the Gabriel-Hackett era.
