Just going to paste the exerpt from the review of the kids "progressive tendencies" mentioned ... I've never been much liking new prog and I don't care for garage. Is he someone to just let pass with the moment? I don't care for the music and it doesn't sound progressive. I don't like new-age authors just tossing around older genres

' Seattle, Washington has always been an epicentre for musical revelations. To this day, artists such as Henry Sachs harness this energy and make it their own. Previously known for his work as part of GALVN, and now continuing his DIY odyssey in 2024 as CASS AVIER, this modern-day maverick has a fierce DIY and experimental edge, ebbing and flowing in a genre-fluid way, arriving at soundscapes that are all of his own making.

This becomes evident throughout CASS AVIER’s most recent release, April’s Die Electric, a glistening clash and mishmash of sounds and styles, and October’s Negative Lang, a free-flowing collection of progressive tendencies and alternative garage foundations. Peculiarly, this Seattle tunesmith’s influential touchstones range back to the likes of Lesley Gore and Barbra Streisand, a testament to the endless eclecticism on show. '


What can I do about misuse of the Prog-rock term like this when it is so fallacious.

"Progressive tendencies" written in someone's blurb does not insinuate they think something is prog rock. A quick run through the artists BC page finds 0 prog or prog-adjacent genre tags.

This is hilarious tilting-at-windmills level gaitkeeping.

Hi,

In the age of the Internet, I'm not sure it matters where the band is from! Seattle has as much as anyone else!

Sure. Though, for some reason I've yet to see a prog band from Angola (2nd country with largest Portuguese speaking population behind only Brazil).
