Yes! The era from my birth til my death!

"OMGGG Look at all these obscure bands I listen to. They are so dark and complex and avant-garde. I am so f**king cool."

Isn't this argument based on the fact that (e.g - Watched a BBC drama based in Ireland, where a bloke finds "Dark Side of the Moon" in this female science teachers basement - he asks her "you into prog-rock" , she replies "Yeah - My older brother got me into it") - The writer obviously wanted to get as many cliche's about prog rock in a thirty second scene as possible obviously ! Sooooo the writers assertion that DSOTM is synonymous with "seventies prog rock" - makes it an album that is definitely heard of outside of the prog-bubble! - so is that what lures an outsider into prog? DSOTM on the monday,  "Deloused in the crematorium"  discovered by the following friday?

...if you wanted to use a euphemism for that blocked word... LOL
Classical music isn't dead, it's more alive than it's ever been. It's just not on MTV.
