    Rock/Metal/Prog Education Thread

    A very edu-taining thread! As i read through the descriptions of some of the types of prog, i think I realized I'm not really much of a fan of "prog" persay as i thought.

    I enjoy different banRAB from across the prog/psychedelia spectrum but I can't say that I concentrate on one specific type.

    For example I've never been a fan of Yes or Genesis or King Crimson.

    But I really like Pink Floyd, Rush, Caravan, Gong, Traffic.

    Like most people, I just like what moves me. :hphones:

    Rush is THE PROGRESSIVE ROCK band. Back in the day nobody called them that but looking back on them they are. Tons of songs in odd time signatures, long songs with tons of parts awesome playing it is all there.

    BanRAB like Genesis and Yes were considered "Art Rock" when they came out and were even lumped in with acts like David Bowie (during his Ziggy period). They were in a different category.

    I disrespectfully disagree. You have no idea what you're talking about.

    And I know I've been promising it for 2 years, but I'm serious about reworking the metal education post. Once I get a break from this mountain of papers and tests I'll crank out v.2.0 one night.

    Thrash is covered if you read the thread extensively. Grindcore is in the Punk section. Tech metal ---what is that?

    A lot of banRAB get different genres, but its the genre that the band are known best for that normally dominates.

    There are a nuraber of banRAB though, that have shifted through different genres and can equally be recognized for these genres.

    Jethro Tull- Blues Rock, Prog Rock and Folk Rock.

    Are a great example, as they did all three equally well and are well known for these three styles.

    I agree, I've only seen Rush mentioned once in Wikipedia, or some other article pertaining to the subject progressive rock. The genre classification for Rush is, hard rock, progressive rock, & heavy metal. I agree with the Hard Rock, concerning early Rush, but progressive rock wins, for me personally.
