Heres a short list of  bands that bore me

Led Zeppelin 

Radiohead  

Tool 

Pink Floyd 

Porcupine Tree 

The Mars Volta 

 

All these bands are decent , they are good but boring in my  humble opinion , I wont go into why they bore me because thats also  boring             

So what bands do you find boring ? Try and keep them prog or prog related

Those bands seem to me to be the most cookie cutter type bands, and seem to be the opposite of progressive rock. Those along side this whole wave of Emo bands that stereotype themselves and see who can sound the most like Fall Out Boy. They may have some talent(I havent paid them enough attention to find out), but without any individuality, talent is useless. I think what these musicians need to do is read Self Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson. "imitation is suicide"

A lot of U2s back catalogue

And a lot ambient stuff, like Klaus Schulze and Brian Eno.

I tried to get into the ambient electronic stuff and Fripp's soundscapes, but it didnt hold my interest long enough to get into it

Camel, Opeth, Marillion, and Rick Wakeman's mid to late solo albums are the first respected prog artists that popped in my head.

*yawn*

 

PS : and how could I forget The Beatles' "White Album"? ... that really bores me to tears! (it's a good thing that they made changes and released their masterpiece called "Abbey Road")

Prog owns.

Bands in this genre that I hate dont even bore me.

Boring: Styx (NOT prog)

Any band that sounds like Nickleback (most everything on the radio now)

Your mom (snore)

This thread is going nowhere. No discussion, just a few lists and mildly abusive comments.
