My parting gift to the forum: I suggest we overhaul the genres of this site to have their names changed to better reflect their contents. Some genres (like ISP and SP) are combined, and some are split into two new categories (like RIO/avant) Canterbury Scene ----> (music not from) Canterbury Scene Crossover Prog ----> Pop Eclectic Prog ----> Genre-hopping with logical transitions Experimental/Post-Metal ----> Distorted Post-Rock Heavy Prog ----> Hard Rock Indo-prog/Raga Rock ----> World Music Italian Symphonic Prog/Symphonic Prog ----> Rock with keyboards Jazz-Rock/Fusion ----> Jazz Krautrock ----> German rock Neo Progressive ----> Rock with bad keyboards Post Rock ----> Boring rock Math Rock ----> w**k rock Prog Folk ----> Folk Progressive Electronic ----> Ambient Progressive Metal ----> metal with keyboards Psychedelic/Space Rock ----> Music by musicians who did drugs RIO/Avant Prog 1 ----> horror soundtracks RIO/Avant Prog 2 ----> genre hopping without logical transitions Tech/Extreme Prog Metal ----> Tech/Extreme Metal Zeuhl ----> Carl Orff clones Proto Prog ----> pre-1969 rock Prog Related ----> post-1969 rock |

I like this idea of having only 1 genre. |
