They all for the most part aged gracefully and remain dedicated to humanitarian and environmental causes. Also I doubt Gentle Giant and Camel were fucking groupies and getting into the kind of Zepplin/Glam Rock debauchery going on at that time
>>131647620By far, yes
>>131647620>They all for the most part aged gracefully and remain dedicated to humanitarian and environmental causesmost of them were hippies, but hippies of the nerdy variety. that or just nerds.>Also I doubt Gentle Giant and Camel were fucking groupies and getting into the kind of Zepplin/Glam Rock debauchery going on at that timedoubtful
>>131647620I would say this is because they were corny ass dorks but modern "nerd culture" is toxic, gay and retarded so it's not like being a dork is a prerequisite for being unproblematic.
>>131647620This is why it fails at being rock & roll. Rock & roll is Jerry Lee Lewis, it's fucked up and dangerous. Prog ends up being a nothing music instead because it also fails at being erudite in any way whatsoever. Self-respecting proggers all went pop by the end of the decade anyway
>>131647620>Is Prog the most wholesome, unproblematic genre?honestly, yes.>>131649361the reasons are kind of obvious, just look at little longer
>>131649392nauseatingly American take
>>131649463Tough shit, princess. Rock & roll is inherently an American art form and always will be undivorceable of it's roots, all foreigners who did good in it, did it fully aware of this.
I never know how to know if a song is "prog" or not.
>>131649545The prog-o-meter increases if the song has:>corny lyrics>longer than 5 minutes>long instrumental sections>keyboards>folk influences>psychedelic influences>odd meter>meter changes>came out in the late 60s and early to mid 70sAlthough I guess these criteria would make a lot of Kraftwerk's 70s stuff like Autobahn, Radioactivity and Trans Europe Express pretty prog so fuck it, don't trust the prog-o-meter.
>>131649930>>corny lyricspost your favourite poem, fren
>>131649496Trvke.
Poor bears
>>131649545If you're embarrassed to play it in public it could be prog
>>131649392Rock n roll is nigger worship. Prog rock pisses people off because it's a modern form of music that niggers can't claim ownership of.
>>131647620Why didn't the bears eat him?
Magma is the epitome of non-problematic.
>>131650369And look no one likes them.
>>131650481I do.
>>131650369>Magma is the epitome of non-problematic.Antifa used to show up and disrupt magma's shows in the 70s because they thought they were fascistChristian Vander's some weird esoteric neo-nazi and a Coltrane-worshiping wigger at the same time who's both a part of a french white nationalist cult and also claims he wishes he was born blackStella vander was the fucking band's bicycle, fucked everyone in the band, and fucked Didier Lockwood when he was like 16 and she was pushing 30.
>>131650792>a french white nationalist cult and also claims he wishes he was born blackSo in other words the average French guy?
>>131649967Ἀνθολογία τῆς Οἰκονομίας (1910) by Georgios Souris. Not sure why that's relevant though.
>>131650792I've said it before but most lolcows of the internet age would've been Daniel Johnston/Gary Wilson types if they had been born three decades prior
>>131649463Kill yourself, obsessed faggot.
>>131650933conversely you had African leaders like Leopold Senghor be black guys who wished they were born French
>>131647620gonna listen to some yes because of this
>>131649392https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_FAqr6rP4wAHHH ITS SO FUCKED UP! ITS SO DANGEROUS! I almost called 911 when that piano solo came in
>>131650366Bears are huge fans of 70 British Prog. In particular they love Yes so they would never hurt any member
>>131651858For 1961 that was considered edgy
>>131650792>Antifa used to show up and disrupt magma's shows in the 70s because they thought they were fascistFunny how much they love doing that
>>131654835They should just rename themselves into antifun. They're literally just pearl-clutchers on ranked mode
>>131649930By that definition, Steely Dan counts as prog
You know kid, I used to fill stadiums.
>>131656058stadium full of bears > stadium full of humans
>>131651858Mogs Yes' whole discography
>>131647620>Also I doubt Gentle Giant and Camel were fucking groupies and getting into the kind of Zepplin/Glam Rock debauchery going on at that timeIf you were a long-haired Brit playing guitar music in the 70s you were getting pussy
>>131651701>but most lolcows of the internet age would've been Daniel Johnston/Gary Wilson types if they had been born three decades prioranime and video games ruined everything
>>131650341Still nigger music per Stockhausen. You're a nigger too, progboy. Own it
>>131647620Prog is pretty boring for how technical it's supposed to be. Rich kids with Moog modulars running up and down the scale. Pass
>>131647620Would you say he's trying to wake up the people for the cause?
>>131656176Or even if you went to a Hawkwind concert. This gigantic slut would dance topless at the concerts, then bang at least one fan from the crowd.
>>131656516Hawkwind was too good to be prog
>>131656516>toplessFully nude. Google Stacia Blake nude.
>>131649463Rent free
>>131656305plenty of non-technical prog https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf1rrypg_zY
>>131655849They kinda are
>>131656190What did he mean by post-African repetitions? Didn't got that yet.
>>131656868Steely Dan's lyrics are anything but prog though
>>131660655Lyrics are, by far, the least important part of prog. Many proggers don't pay attention to the lyrics at all.
>>131656176I think OP meant that while obviously the prog guys were getting laid they weren't involved in the more fucked up "orgy with a bunch of 12 year old girls" that like Zepp or Gary Glitter were getting up to in the 70s
>>131647620holy based
>>131647620Imagine being a bear trapped with this faggot plinkplonking his piano when you want to eat his boomer ass and shut up his ruckus
>>131650369hahahaha. right. totally. hahaha.
>>131660922Proggers tend to live full lives that don't end in something they brought on themselves either. We'll overlook Keith Emerson as an exception
>>131663291Keith lived a long full life
>>131661662Do you really feel that upset about some random band vs multi-national Corporations and world government organizations?
I'm really upset there's no way to watch more than a 60 second clip of this concert. I'd pay like $10 for the full concert to watch the bears vibing.
>>131665447That's how modern leftist are they care more about policing random individuals personal behavior then they do challenging any actual power structures
>>131669665Because you fucking nazi crackers uphold those systems on an individual level then play dumb when confronted? Magma and anyone who contributes to world fascism deserves to be stopped
>>131656305Maybe you'd like prog skramz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mccfgNHQ6J4&t=27s
>>131649392Back then even the dirty freaks had to be disciplined performers and operate tastefully.In a post reality tv world, prog is starting to look favorable.
>>131669794Holy reddit

>>131650933You've never been to France, Timmy.
>>131651702Translation:>you're correct and I have no argument Mutt.
>>131671918Oh and you have rajneesh? Tell us all about it
>>131661567I'm sure the bears don't mind as long as they get fed
Weird how so many hip hop artists are rapists and murderers, I wonder what it is about that music that makes them that way
>>131673463Yeah. That pesky music is the cause of it all.
>>131673463>>131674108Prog ruined many lives by inspiring teenagers to get stoned and run off into the wilderness
>>131671927Obsessed faggot, kill yourself.
>>131672428I prefer Paris to NYC. I'm also one the whitest people you'll ever see but hey, I realise you need to cope.
>>131649496The Brits did it the best imobut the roots are American I can't deny that objective fact
>>131647620A lot of prog is about dark shit it's just that most people don't pay attention to the lyrics.Lemmings (Including Cog) is about a suicide pact, not even about the actual lemmings myth.
>>131677180So you're a self-hating white faggot who loves Indians? Huh good for you I guess
>>131680967A lot of rock music in general is about dark shit
>>131677180>I'm also one the whitest people you'll ever see>Calls other white people "timmy:doubt.jpg
how does this thread stay alive when two /prog/s have died?
>>131647620yes, pun intended. all great points, anon.
god bless Rick Wakeman. what a great guy. wish more people were like him. him and Stevie Wonder probably the two most unproblematic musicians.
Peter Gabriel is another one who is pretty much the salt of the earth as far as rock stars go
>>131647620Never underestimate the power of rape
>>131684168Phil Collins may be opinionated but as far as I'm aware he hasn't ever had a big scandal in his personal life. Unless you consider the rumor that he watched a man drown and did nothing to be true
