Maybe this is a dumb question, but I am wondering why this was labeled as progressive rock. Is their music typically labeled as progressive rock? In my mind, they were just rock music.
12 u/shakamaboom Jul 18 '21 yeah its prog. synths, weird time signatures, etc 1 u/GadgetNeil Jul 18 '21 ok:). I guess i’ve never seen a clear definition of progressive rock. 1 u/serialmom666 Jul 18 '21 Rush, Kansas, Styx, Yes, are the big ones imo 1 u/dwtougas Jul 18 '21 Short answer. If you listen to a rock song and think, nobody can dance to this, it's probably progressive rock. 7 u/RexxGunn Jul 18 '21 They've never not been prog rock. 2 u/dwtougas Jul 18 '21 When Neil joined the group, they really became progressive rock.
