Prog is the new punk, becuase kids who shop at Hot Topic don't know Bill Bruford is God.

Well for your sake I'll take a shot at it.

It's called "Scraping The Barrel".

There's a beard.

There's a clam.

And the dude seems awfully intent on getting to that pearl in the middle.

Seems someone's 'scraping the barrel' and going for the bearded clam.

Sorry.

I'm just a bit wary of that gold tooth. Mayhaps our Gentle Giant-y friends have decided to sport a little bling-bling?

For some reason, I find this appropriate for the moment:

Robin: and just because it smells good, it doesn't mean you should eat it Aaron!

Sleevenote says Original artwork by George Underwood.
Would that be the same George Underwood,the friend of Dame David Bowie? The one that punched him and gave him the odd coloured eyes? If so,it explains everything...I think?!?
