tec have you even listened to prog rock lol


Yes.

And to be honest, I think rock is actually the single worst """genre""" in music.

I know you people like to say 'haha i like anything except country haha xD XD', but let's be serious:

1. If you say that unironically, you're an idiot.

2. It really should be rock.

Let's take a fuck;ing look at """rock""" """""music"""""". Take a look at one of the most popular rock """bands""": Radiohead.

The name """rock""" implies """music""" you can """rock""" out to - but who the fuck; actually wants to rock out to some whiny depressing ponytail-wearing succboi wailing over beats that sound like they were made by Aphex Twin's retarded half-brother who likes arbitrarily putting guitar over things? killyourself;

If I ever want to kill myself but can't quite commit, all I have to do to push me over the edge is listen to Kid A. If one of the most popular bands in a genre makes me want to ,... how could it possibly be a good genre? goonish

do the songs not have a structure which progresses as opposed to repetition?


lol'd yet again


Hiro

Tbh in rainbows is the only Radiohead album I really care about anymore

YPrrrr

Oh can we finally shit on Radiohead together instead of pretending it's the defining music of our era

I mean I don't really think they're shit either they're just... a good band. They've been somewhat influential though probably not at much as they should have been given their popularity.
Also the Mars Volta was mostly pretty good

Samus Aran

i never actually got into the mars volta all that much but i liked de-loused well enough. good album.

radiohead on the other hand i still really like a lot tbh, but my radiohead phase has long since ended so i don't really actively listen to them anymore. maybe i'll throw kid a on the turntable tonight for old time's sake. i still legitimately really like kid a and in rainbows a lot
