People need to be discovering more obscure Prog Rock bands. There is a lot to like :v:

Sgt Peppers is considered a key album in the formation of prog.

Protest The Hero is awesome. I love their new album (Scurillous).

I need to get some Camel on vinyl. I'm pretty sure my store has some if I dig :v: But I think I'll have to lay off working through their discography as my listening has been solely prog rock over the past 4 days or so.

Just let it envelop you :smug:

[QUOTE=TehKaboose;28453574]What kind of prog do you play? I'd really like to start writing my own music, but I've only been playing for about a year and haven´t bothered with a whole lot of theory + I don´t have any kind of recording equipment. I should really get a teacher at some point.[/QUOTE] We mix in all our influences as much as we can. Right now were writing an upbeat funk metal influenced thing, but we dabble in prog death and technical prog metal. But our main style is kind of like Porcupine Tree, atmospheric. To start you absolutely need some theory under your belt. Learn stuff about polyrhythms and things. And learn harmony. Specifically some jazz harmony and things like sus chords. Lots of people just do what they want, but having the theory gives it more structure and thought quite often. You also need to know the rules to break them properly. On a different note, I'm pretty sure that The Universal Migrator by Ayreon is the most epic sounding prog metal album ever.

[QUOTE=thisispain;28469049]i love this album because it breaks the convention of what people call prog rock instead of long guitar solo suites with heavy boom percussion and lyrics about mutant pet goats, they actually made a proper new-wavy pop album[/QUOTE] Let me get this straight. You think it's a perfect prog album, because you think it's actually a New-wave pop album? :crossarms:

show me where i said it was a perfect prog album if i remember correctly that was the "mass-divide" album, devoid of the flute, mellotron, and duck whistle soundscapes that made them popular

But songs about mutant goats is what makes prog awesome [editline]7th March 2011[/editline] Holy shit I had no idea Lemmy played in Hawkwind.

Some great stuff. :v:

I've been meaning to try Beat. I've also heard good things about Thrak, and the song Dinosaur is really good: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9dKrLY-dbg[/media]

Heard a bit of their final album and all of their 80s work. Their final album is pretty good so far, better than I expected, seeing as they used some modern styles.

My favourite prog band is probably An Endless Sporadic

[QUOTE=Morbo!!!;28475599]My favourite prog band is probably An Endless Sporadic[/QUOTE] Recommend me some.

[QUOTE=AK'z;28475667]Recommend me some.[/QUOTE] Ameliorate, Debut EP. Remember the track "Impulse" from Guitar Hero 3? That was them.

Seem quite recent. Pretty good all the less.

I can't believe I waited this long until I started listening to more prog rock, this shit is awesome.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic is slowly becoming my favourite all time prog album. :smug:
