Actually, the future of Progressive Rock began with the birth of 3 albums:

Lateralus

De-Loused in the Comatorium

Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV Volume I: House of Madness

One likes to believe in the freedom of music, for glittering prizes and endless compromises shatter the illusion of integrity.

I think they are good but I hardly see them as prog... it is still very amazing for me to find them here and bands like Wishbone Ash not.

one of the best band today. better then the mars volta IMO. I've already say it and I will continue to say it. They are a prog band. And I can't understand why some people go on saying they are not. Is there a Conservative Prog Party?

Very good and somewhere on the fringes of Prog (and, a good deal more progressive than a good deal of modern Prog too )

I love Radiohead but I've never really understood what's progressive about them most of the time. Kid A, maybe, but most of their music is just really well-written, but not necessarily progressive.

I can`t stand them I wish I never even knew of them as far as being prog thats an insult to prog

Well... don't listen to them, and you won't be insulted. I've got six or seven of their CDs as well as other recordings and I've managed not to hear them for a few months so I'm sure it can't be too difficult for you

I really like one of their tunes (the famous one) and they did a good show at Glastonbury in 97, but I find them irritating because it is so obvious at times they (conciously or otherwise) sound like Robert Wyatt and other proggers but refuse to acknowledge the link.

I'm very conflicted on this issue.  I think Radiohead are progressive (not necessarily symphonic prog, but as has been said many times, prog is not one genre of music).  I'm also conflicted on whether I like them.  I don't like the Bends (that one is definitely not prog), but I do like OK Computer (that definitely is prog).  I guess I'll just have to buy more of their albums!

It would appear that the results of this poll are pretty inconclusive.

The results of this poll are irrelevant to this site.

They're in the archives, ergo they're prog, as far as this site is concerned.

As for whether they're any good or not, well, that's opinion - and opinions are like a certain part of the anatomy... everyone has one, but not everyone's is worth displaying in public.
