You'd be kicked of the site sooner than that for blasphemy... More on topic: just checked the article and the reactions on the Guardian site. I did recognize a few quotes that were also posted here, as well as a few familiar names. Looks like we have some defenders out there... |

Well, I understand the point: that great bands are often labeled quickly and hastily, without much regard for the music...but, the author clearly doesn't understand enough about prog to really write this article. "Prog-rock pit falls"? What a joke!

That was a poor article.
Writing a response would be a waste of time. |

Well, even David Gilmour doesn't consider Pink Floyd to be prog.

Huh? His "speech" is quite controversial, in the way that he says one thing and then denies it in a subtle way or maybe not..

that was a rather painful read because it was stupid. ;P I wonder what the songs Atom Heart Mother and Echoes are, if not prog.

summary for those too lazy:
1. I love Pink Floyd 2. I hate most other "prog" 3. Therefore, Pink Floyd cannot and are not prog. |

Some stupid hack on the Guardian website has deemed it necessary to attack our beloved prog all over again:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/musicblog/2008/oct/08/pink.floyd.not.prog.rock He obviously doesn't have a clue what wonderful music falls under the prog umbrella! As usual, the best thing about this silly article are the reactions from those who come to prog's defense - including yours truly. Rock on. ADMIN EDIT: made reference into a real link.
