What is exactly prog rock?  Once my friend told me it is a rock-style which gives more emphasys to instrumental parts than the vocals, and we can cleary notice this in bands like Pink Floyd (listen to the wonderful Shine On You Crazy Diamond, please!!!! 26 minute of Godly music!!!), King Crimson etc.But i was going through some music sites this week and read that prog-rock is actually a rock that mixes various music styles, with many variations. I'd like to know which is the correct (or more correct ) definition for it, what i know is that prog rock definitely rules. We can discuss here also what are our fav prog-rock bands also. Mine is Pink Floyd of course (Shine On, Echoes, the entire Animals album, wonderful works!). |

| You're partially correct, Progressive Rock is just rock music that usually starts off slow and slowly progresses (hence the name) as the song goes by, and sometimes starts back over. Listen to Shine On You Crazy Diamond again, see how it slowly progresses into different music styles and gets more upbeat, etc.? | |||

| "Progressive rock artists sought to move away from the limitations of radio formatted rock and pop, and 'progress' rock to the point that it could achieve the musical sophistication of jazz or classical." Vague, isn't it? If this article is accurate (which it probably is, but there's no way to be sure), the term does not come from the "progression" of music in a song, although that is a common trait. Boy, I love defining genres. |

| Prog rock hasn't even been progressive for, oh...over 20 years. The term prog rock is used now to define a certain sound. |
