Is "Red" the ultimate conclusion to Progressive Rock?

If not, then what is?
>>
In the Court of the Crimson King
>>
>>60884527
Lark's Tongue in Aspic. It's a better album as a whole, even if Red is a better song than anything on LTiA.
That or Close to the Edge/Relayer.
Depends on what you are looking for, large compositions or shorter ones which pack a punch.
>>
>>60884612
How can it be the conclusion to Prog Rock when it is also the genesis of prog rock?
>>
>>60884527
Godbluff was released a year later, so no
>>
>>60884639
just like Loveless is both the genesis and the conclusion to shoegaze
>>
>>60884834
And Spirit of Eden/Laughing Stock are the genesis and conclusion to Post-Rock
>>
>>60884527
Tubular Bells
>>
>>60884834
>>60884857
Yes

>>60884612
No, The Wall is

That's subjective. Maybe that wave of Post-Rock.

>>60884924
>The Wall
Yeah no. You're thinking of Pink Floyd's very specific kind of progressive rock that's palatable for the mass public.
>>
>>60884924
The Wall isn't even prog

Thick As a Brick is the obvious conclusion to symphonic prog

>>60885081
But Thick as a Brick is a satire.
>>
>>60885170
Exactly
>>
Starless>One More Red Nightmare>Red>Fallen Angel>Providence

Prove me wrong
>you cAnt
>>
>>60885854
Except Fallen Angel segues perfectly from Red, and has more emotionally resonant lyrics than one More Red Nightmare.
>>
>>60885854
Starless > Red > Providence > One More Red Nightmare > Fallen Angel
>>
>>60885909
I really like the backing synths on the vocals and the way the choruses flow, just a more accessible rock song I guess. I really like this album though.
>>
>>60885957
>>60885854
Why do you guys hate Fallen Angel? Idk it resonates with me because I think about my brother.
>>
>>60885973
It's okay anon, I like the song, I mean there's only five of them and they're all fucking great but I just personally like three more than the other two.
It's just slower and I like \m/hard\m/rawk\m/
