Just listen to Camel's ''The Snow Gooze'' and you will easily realize how vocals are absolutely necessary to make a progressive masterpiece.

Not absolutely... I'm thinking about many amazing Camel songs where the guitar or the flute "sings" and many other prog instrumentals that sound perfectly complete as they are.

I don't think that is absolutely necessary, but it can be a good addition

It Depends, I prefer the music rather than the lyrics.

It depends what kind of experience you're after and/or what kind of music you're listening to to get that experience.

To keep it simple: Are, in your opinion, vocals absolutely necessary for a fulfilling musical experience?
