Originally posted by badmoonas are many of the progressive bands, except pink floyd which is the least interesting of them all. I think it's just a media hype thing, caused by the punk wave, which turned into baseless 'common knowledge'.
Gentle giant is one of the most under-appreciated bands of all time. Really brilliant.
sure they went too far occasionally, but that's the price you pay for pushing the limits. you can't always hit a home run. -but all in all, 90% of the progressive stuff beats hands down almost anything the mainstream labels push these days. (of course beating the mainstream labels doesn't take much, but still...)

BUDDY! You and me are kindred spirits.
LOVE the XBXRX and An Albatross. Ever seen either of them live??
Actually I haven't, and that is unfortunate.
And I mean, I do like some noise stuff, but that's not all I listen to...
Got any other good bands from the Great White North for me to check out?
