read about this thread on The Comatorium and decided to bring it back up again....now that the single's been released, has anyone's opinions changed? They definitely sound different, but its generic as hell (IMO)

Hoobastank is prog? Confused

Just go on LP's website, the sample song in the begining... no Prog at all.

I believe this quote ´proves how Prog they can get:

Speaking to Bilboard, Sinoba said that they have around 100 song ideas which they are going to whittle down to around 18 for the final cut of the album.

Incredible,. real Prog artists took an average of one year to release a a good and well developed album, Gabriel takes between 2 to 8 years.

And this mediocre posers say they have 100 Prog songs for one album????????

Simply unbbelievable.

Erm I made a prog song in two days (a bad prog song but valid)

I DEMAND the inclusion of LP in Prog-Archives at least in the related category! After they release their album, even I will say, "DT who??"

I've done some research and it seems they're going to have a 24.15 minute song in their album with guest stars Robert Fripp and Roger Waters, plus Michael Jackson who will take care of these two stars' kids while they're away touring with THE PARK.

f**k, well, what's next? I think I heard rumors of Snoop Doggy Dog teaming up with Beyonce and Daddy Yankee to release a new concept album "Yo' Prog grillz'n'bitches Vol II - Cut' ya' time in half" .... And then, of course, Timberlake will follow.

But who knows LP will end up becoming the new Genesis of the current generation....

In 20 years people will be talking about how LP'd drummer drove the band to pop music while Sinoba went to have a successful solo career.

I don't mind Linkin Park (I liked the Hybrid Theory - or whatever it was called when I was 11)

but I don't think they could be remotely prog but we'll see...

Wow, just listened to the new track on their myspace....

If by 'prog' they meant 'emo', then they're doing a great job. It's unfathomably worse than anything else they've produced.

I find this funny because Shinoda's solo project "Fort Minor" was pretty successful (from what I heard), their drummer is the most talented member.

When thinking back to the bands I listened to before I got into prog, LP stood out as one that could've been an amazing progressive band if, you know, they weren't so into nu-metal or rap.
