Fad? It was mainstream for about 10 years.
And you can`t honestly say that punk wasn`t meant to the the antithisis of what prog was about.In fact I can recall most of the original punk bands saying they hated it and how out of touch they thought it was & that they wanted something off the street they could relate to.

And besides for a lot of punks it was just a put on so they could maintain their "rebelious" image, prog just happened to be the most popular thing at the time and they needed something to rebel against. In fact, Johnny Rotten even admitted that his "I hate Pink Floyd" antics was just a put on, and he has confessed to being a HUGE Van Der Graff Generator fan...You can even hear some elements of prog in the Public Image Ltd, and of course this alienated a lot of hardcore Pistols fans.
