Misuse of the forum-posted in wrong area.Try "Get The Word Out"

Only Gabriel is considered prog...

...but in future reading our guidelines will get a more positive response.

On this web site, I believe Peter Gabriel is listed as art rock.

He's not prog. In fact after watching his Growing Up Live, I'd classify his music as slog. Hate to be cliche, but I like the older stuff like PG3 or Plays Live.

...blind italian classical prog.

As for Razorlight, they are an utterly dreadful band.  Still, if they are playing a show for charity, then they deserve some respect - not musically though!

That's a US clasification that's hardly ever used elsewhere, and when it is, it's about a slightly different style (Roxy Music comes to mind).

Artrock= A sub genre of PROG ROCK according to the admins of course.
