In agreeance, the messages were similar. That was one of the whole themes of rock, rebellion, and when punk first came about it was still running strong in the blood so to speak.

Punk has the scales 70:30 in favour of the message.
Prog has the scales 70:30 in favour of the music.
At least thats how I see it.

True, but i still dont understand why people hate prog for being long, classical music and opera is long, isnt it?...I love prog, and i think people take the rock in prog rock too seriously, prog just has some rock elements, but it borrows much more from other genres, mainly jazz and classical music, and theres nothing wrong with that.
I also like how some bands nowedays mix elements of punk AND prog. |
