I don't think she's even progressive rock. Why is her CD being obsessively advertised on progarchives.com?

for new pop she's not that bad, some of her stuff is humorous at least. Always look at the bright side.

I see the ads, but I don't really care if they are there. I don't think it's that big of a deal.

Lily Allen is an arse, and whilst i disagree most with a whole lotta music being punted as prog, i;ve just pissed my pants that she is going to be added in one of the many sub-genre's of prog. Not so much a piddle as a tsunami....what pillock thinks she is prog?
Is this the 1st of April

We all listen to Lilly Allen and we're all going to Power Chord Academy to perfect our mellotron skills. Obviously, the advertisements are perfectly linked with the interests of PA members.

What I don't get is why someone paid to place them there. Didn't they do any demographic research? But, who cares. PA got the money.

I dont mind her, and I ignore the ads. Ads can be annoying but they pay for this site.
Lily is prog related, anyway. Anyone who cant see that is blind and deaf to good music. Lily rocks!! in 7/8, 5/4 and 13/12 which four key changes per cycle..
Syncapated!

Just because music is well written, well played and has interesting key signatures does not make it prog. To me Lily Allen's stuff is more Reggae/Dance based.

I just wanted to echo that if you complain about ads and you're not using Adblock....well, you've got nothing to complain about really, have you?

I haven't got Adblock but I get the impression that my anti-virus program is no Lily Allen fan either. Haven't seen any advertisement of her.

I'm not sick of the Lily Allen ads! Because they've all become Beyonce ads now.
Don't those ad companies realize that this site is a little on the prog-rock side of the spectrum?
