Serious and humorless maybe but, no, snobbery is not something I've heard associated with prog by the music press or anyone else.

Well that IS your problem because I hear it all the damn time. From Rolling Stone, Blender, Spin, VH1, NME and so on.

Humorlessness? Really? I'd say a lot of punk is not particularly serious.

I'm not confusing punk in general of being humorless I'm just saying I can think of many many more punk bands who are snobby and self righteous about their points of view.
Studying music theory and wanting their fans to sit still and listen is about as snobby as prog bands tend to get.
Ok, that and Jon Anderson and Steve Howe used to piss Rick Wakeman off with their preachy vegetarianism.

Well, boobs, I've certainly read plenty of music magazines in my life and I disagree that what you are saying "is what they always say about prog and punk".

Well the music press isn't worth defending and it's bullcrap anyway so arguing about it is pointless because I'm sticking to what I know to be true.
