Seems to be kids posting metal here.

Is it worth tryng to make this forum prog-wise?

Or is ridicule all you trade in.

Ooopps.
Just noticed there IS a Prog and Psych subforum here.

Giving a cursory look, it would appear to be dead.

There are prog fans here, a few kids for that matter, but there are too many Genesis's and Dream Theater's and not enough King Crimson's and Hawkwind's for anyone to be expected to keep up with all that ****.

And yes we do enjoy bartering ridicule.

I'll sing the praises of Spock's Beard for days, but most prog rock doesn't do much for me.

THE GLORY


I know this isn't with Neal Morse but **** it, Nick can sing well too

Starting one's stay here by being condescending and factually wrong.
Nice.

The non-dominance of prog is one of my favorite things about MB <3

There are already too many anti-social nerds with superiority complexes on this site.

I actually have ended up liking Spock's Beard sans morse better!

The Flower Kings
Marillion
Glass Hammer
Enchant
Opeth
Riverside
Storm Corrosion
Transatlantic

And all the usual suspents.

I don't know about that. I find people on this site to be generally pretty open minded and tolerant about other people's taste in music.
Maybe they've just become so good at burying their resentment under a layer of friendly sarcasm that they manage to fool me? I can't think of a single member that has (much) of a stick up his arse.

They wouldn't be quite as intolerable if they had another singer. That guy sounds like he's got a cactus permanently stuck in his underpants.
