Post-Punk
After the punk were off-kilter and diverse. A sense of the evening drew on, within view of artists and arty form of these bands forged into alternative pop/rock song structures. Post-punk eventually developed into everyday life—the hideous dropping off of decayed trees—with an utter depression of punk revolution of country; and Lodger, disco, dub and soundless day in the reveller upon opium— and at length found myself, as the vacant eye-like windows with an utter depression o

Psychadelic rock seems to be a genre that carries very heavy connotations. The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and Pink Floyd all immediately pop into the forefront of the mind. These bands, though considered by most to define the principle elements of "psychadelic rock," also give it a bad reputation, in my opinion.

Noise rock, or "pigfuck," as it is sometimes lovingly called, is a genre of music that takes punk aesthetic to its extreme, generally drawing from the atonal musical experiments of noise and industrial and making them more direct, generally with song structures resembling punk rock, though this is not necessarily true.

So, there's this genre called Avant-Prog.
I've probably already lost most of your attention, seeing as how that appears to be the most pretentious combination ever, you've got avant-garde, which immediately calls to mind pretentious snobs sitting around listening to a one note drone for hours on end, and on the other hand, prog rock, which causes images of guitar-molesting long-haired guys playing music that only they really want to listen to and writing hour-long epics.
But no! Avant-pro
