I have to say I'm very disappointed with some of the classification errors on this site. Just as an example, how can you say Aragon fits into the neo-progressive sub-genre of Symphonic Progressive when clearly they belong in the rock-in-opposition (RIO) sub-genre of the Canterbury class?! Sheesh!

You should post this in the "Suggestions for the Archives" section. Feel free to offer advice. No one said things here are perfect and I 'm sure the adminsitrators have NOT heard music from every single artist listed in the archive. Your advice will probably meet with a warm "thank you." Be sure to be specific and offer support if you can. You can also PM the admin group... Max and Proglucky. Welcome to the forum, hope you stay and play. |

hey guys, I was just kidding -- never even heard of them! Most of these bands I've never even heard of. I own most all old Genesis, Yes, Tull, King Crimson, and some Camel, Collosseum II, Greenslade, Marillion, & Gentle Giant, things like that. But that's pretty much it. I'm familiar with other stuff like Mahavishnu simply because I used to play drums and everybody likes Billy Cobham. At work we just kinda kid around about all the sub-genres we see listed here -- "hey, isn't that some hungarian symphonic art rock i hear coming from your office?" I just always called it all "progressive" and that was it. ;)

But what's funny is that your post is no more ridiculous than
many I've seen round here. Thought I was the only one that played the Most Stupid Prog-Rock Sub Genres game in the office! T |
