Movies with prog

If Prog-Related counts (hopefully it does), I remember that Lars von Trier's wonderful yet disturbing Breaking the Waves features Deep Purple's "Child in Time", as well as other Seventies classics (Bowie comes to mind as well). 

 there is a scene in ''the 40 years old virgin '' that's made a reference of a classic prog band

if ever you need a band to fill in for a scene in your movie.. drop me a PM... I've got a hot looking group.. a diverse lot of hot stylish Italian women... strong and silent West Coasters... Brash and hahahah.. Cheeky East Coasters...  noble dignified Englishmen.. and a young rising musical genius from Romania who is as handsome as his old man is

Sheryl Lee's breasts, say no more.
Here's the credits for the Pink Room:
Music: David Lynch
Keyboards: Andy Armer
Guitar: David Jaurequi
Bass: Don Falzone
Drums: Steven Hodges

The Departed has a fairly decent cover version of Comfortably Numb in it.

Pink Floyd's More and Ocscured by Clouds were soundtrack albums, but I haven't watched either of the films.

I believe Ulver made the soundtrack to the norwegian movie "Svidd Neger"(translated: "burnt negro").

I like that movie, eventhough it has a quite odd plot.

You are probably right - Though Gang was a Lynch/Badalamenti made-up band, but I thought the bar scene had Julee Cruise standing on stage singing, isn't the Pink Room a different scene?

If memory serves, the Julee Cruise scene occurred out front in the bar and the pink room was a back room to the bar where everyone got wild and the chicks took off their shirts.

I believe the song you're referring to is called the Pink Room. (you are talking about the song with the bowed bass, heavy guitars, and a hard driving drum beat?)  If so it's only a little over four minutes on the soundtrack, maybe it just seemed that long.  I'll have to check my soundtrack CD when I get home, but I think it's not a real band but a Lynch/Badalamenti concoction.

I have no idea who this band are, but would really like to know; so if anybody knows please tell me I haven't watched the film in years, but if it features a female singer then it may be Julee Cruise, if it were a male then it might be The Thought Gang... As far as I know all music and lyrics were written by David Lynch and Angelo Badalamenti.

thanks a lot; I will check it out
