Let's face it, Rolling Stone hasn't been the most kind to prog bands....however, I found this article & linked music VERY impressive!  

Maybe they are starting to learn that there is a market out there beyond rap, or pretty-girl country etc.?

I consider myself a MASSIVE Genesis fan and yet I've never heard of Naminanu. Surprisingly good. 
Twilight Alehouse should of been on there (though I don't like the song that much...)
Annnnd.... I LOVE Evidence of Autumn!! If Evidence replaced the pop single Misunderstanding on Duke, perhaps Duke would be better received here on Progarchives...
Perhaps...
No, it wouldn't of. But still a great song nonetheless.

I thought they were a band where Johny Depps father played guitar.
Thanks !! Your topics always so good and informative. I like you talk.

Same on here, I wonder if many people who loves quality music above all - as I've seen in PA Forum - thinks the same way as you. How I wish I find this atmosphere some day one day in my country...

I have the pleasure to inform in "first hand" - to be honest of course it's to whom might concern, that here in Brasil most of what I consider trash music that is played most of the time in the brasilian MTV is sponsored by this "rock" magazine Rolling Stone.
By the way I think it might be normal a rock fan who reads some rock magazines, but sincerely since I was a teen I remember having opened just one of them and just once in my whole life, and I'm not recalling now whether it was that Rolling Stone in which Neil Peart had won the prize as the best drummer of the year, or that one in which Eddie Van Halen won the same prize as the best guitarist.

Look at the top of Rolling Stone's "Best 500 Albums of All Time" list. Apart from the London Calling, all their Top 10 albums are from the 1960s. Tunnel vision?

 have the original Namimamu record and thought that song should have been on the album. I used to get Rolling Stone delivered to my home---NEVER FOR THE MUSIC---because it was more biased than Fox news---just for other stories and the picturesTongue Plus it was really cheap like 12 dollars a year.

Nope. There's at least 2 of us.

I care about this specific article. The person who wrote the piece obviously knows his stuff and isn't responsible for the magazines 40 years of prog-ignorance/hatred.

Ditto, as most of the rest of you have said. There were much better music magazines that came along in time. And is Rolling Stone even a magazine? I always thought it was more of a music paper (rag).

Far from it, I assure you.

The Rolling Stone ceased to be of relevance after 1971, which, by the way, was the last time Ian Anderson appeared on the cover.

It currently is a fashion magazine for immaculately rough-shaven, musically inept metrosexuals.

Rolling stone just promotes the film. Don't be that optimistic.
