sinisterplague: Teach Me How To Prog

sideburndude 03.07.13	Listen to the classics, Close to the Edge Thick as a Brick, Foxtrot; they are all easy to find. Prog Metal is prog but metal, experimental metal does stuff outside the realms of normal metal but does not have to be prog, avant-garde is a broad term for extremely experimental and weird art
Keyblade 03.07.13	yea start with the classics Camel - Mirage/Moonmadness Genesis - Selling England by the Pound/The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway Yes - Close to the Edge the various Rush albums a couple of other old and modern Anglagard - all of them Druid - Toward the Sun Beardfish - their last 3 albums The Flower Kings - The Sum of No Evil/Stardust We Are/Paradox Hotel

SmersH 03.07.13	Magma - Self-titled Steve Hackett - Voyage of the Acolyte Van Der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts (or) Godbluff All great prog... though Magma is a hell of a grower.
DamnVanne 03.07.13	You gotta go back; listen to Porcupine Tree's Signify
ZilbelPing 03.07.13	yo camel genesis yes that's it
ZilbelPing 03.07.13	and rush obv but you already have them so you're good
JamieTwort 03.07.13	"Lesson 1. The mars Volta fucking suck hard listen to rush" lol this hard.
JamieTwort 03.07.13	In adittion to what's already been said get Jethro Tull - Aqualung.
MeatSalad 03.07.13	Kraan - Kraan I have like a million prog lists on my profile, take a look at em
ButteryBiscuitBass 03.07.13	King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King Jethro Tull - Aqualung Yes - Fragile Genesis - Selling England By The Pound Gentle Giant - In a Glass House Start with these and enjoy. Then if you like, I'd agree with MeatSalad, take a look on his profile for more in depth stuff.
sinisterplague 03.09.13	Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. So far, I've listened to In the Court of The Crimson King and Aqualung. Both are between 4 and 4.5 for me right now. Great albums. I would have given In the Court of the Crimson King a 5 if it weren't for "Moonchild." That song does not come close to justifying its length.
Ichangedmynametojeff 04.21.14	At this point, you're already into prog. If you're asking the difference between the genres, here is my rundown: PROG - Much longer songs, still very oriented to rock, cool lyrics, spacey or just flat out amazing production, symphonic touches, MELLOTRON!!!! EXPERIMENTAL - Usually involves electronics, crazy and weird AVANTGARDE - No rules. Flat out insanity.
impropera 04.21.14	Are Mr. Bungle really prog?
ChoccyPhilly 04.21.14	Start off with Fear Of A Blank planet or Deadwing with porcupine tree. They're slightly less straight forward as In Absentia and also have much heavier moments. If you want to get into Avant-garde prog, try one of Unexpect's albums. Insanity ^ couldn't describe it any better but they're also incredibly fun
ArsMoriendi 04.21.14	"Are Mr. Bungle really prog?" Not even a little. Neither are Faith No More. Yes - Fragle [2] Pink Floyd - Animals Camel - Mirage [2]
