I like Igorrr and I grew up listening to that linkin park album, it's practically a part of me.

/mu/ generally values image over music, so a genre like Prog Rock gets shit for being "unhip". Most of the people that hate on Prog here have very little musical reasons, and the musical reasons are almost never well thought out or valid.

Go away

>>61049733
okay list, ignore tha haters
They probably have charts full of fotm /mu/core

I really like bands like Camel, Yes, Gentle Giant, King Crimson, and The Moody Blues. Generally I think bands like Pink Floyd are really watered down and uninteresing.

Prog rock has been associated with the fedora atheist man, therefore /mu/ completely distances itself from it.

Unless it's hipster prog like krautrock. /mu/ will claim that krautrock artists are the most influential in history.

You're just as bad as the 12 year olds that hate the eagles because they just watched weed the dude movie. Nobody hates Supertramp

How does one define "prog"?

Is it just the odd time signatures? Emphasis on concepts?

>>61053480
stupid memeprog
>>
>>61053322
-rejection of blues as the base for rock
-use of classical, jazz and folk music (hence the the odd time signatures)
-discarding of the traditional song structure, without discarding the idea of structure per se (like psychedelic rock or krautrock often did)
-compositional lucidity and a general love of conceptual albums and fantastic themes
