Hard/Melodic Prog Songs (great song, single, album, Genesis, Muse)

~~N*S*G~~ · 11-13-2007, 01:39 AM

I have recently (by recently I mean years ago) became enamored with songs like Stockholm Syndrome by MUSE and Never Enough by Dream Theater.

Anyone know of any other prog songs that have this same hard yet melodic feel?

Is Muse really prog?

The one DT song I really, really like..."Voices" from Awake. Going back a ways, Genesis "Watcher of the Skies".

*Warning: wank overload at 7:24-8:20

*Warning: 70's weird ie. the same people who made

*shudder*

They fit the bill way back when I'm sure, anything more modern? You can really tell how the times have changed tempo-wise.

If your looking for good prog, try some Rush.....they are pretty heavy compared to like.....gentle giant or even most yes

Also check out One more Red Nightmare by King Crimson....Great song

Well, yeah, but anything can be "prog" if you compare it to the right bands. "Bubblegum" sounds pretty progressive when you compare it to "Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols". Doesn't make the Mark Lanegan Band prog.
