>His favorite genre is Indie Rock
>>
>>61583405
Lately I've been getting into more ambient stuff. Idk. I like whatever I like.
>>
>>61583390
I've listened to other prog, but those bands are my favorite because they're the best. They're well known because they're good and exhibit virtuoso.

Rush isn't progressive rock. It's standard rock enlongated to 20 minutes. Not enough zippity doo wop beepity boop.

I went through an indie rock phase, but it's so goddamn annoying because of how fucking self-conscious the music is.

It's just my personal favorites, Husker Du is definitely seminal in Post-Hardcore though, and they're great. I'm more about post-hardcore/emo(?) stuff I guess.
I think that post-hardcore and emo are shitty genre names, especially if someone asks you what kind of music you listen to.

>>61583376
Replace Arcade Fire with Pavement and put Pixies before The National.

Charlie (FTFY) Patton is a careerist son house facsimile. Skip James could've made it, but I was giving a representative cross section of my top 5. I'll consider Blind Gary to have provided the existential blues aspect in lieu of Reverend Gary.
Ellmore James is more influential than good imho. Slide innovator? Sure. A particularly GOAT bluesman? No.

Albert meanwhile, is based as fuck. The Blues is not all about dread and depression, and Iceman is my go to when I need some fucking laughs.
