Get the progen mug.A shortened term which came about in the late 80s but stands for progressive rock music which dates back to the late 60s. It is rock based music that pushed boundaries beyond pop 'single' verse, chorus, verse, bridge, chorus, four minute compositions.
Prog encompasses various styles dating back to the late 60s depending on influences and established music forms being blended together. Classical blended with rock is a style of prog called 'symphonic'. Jazz musicians that composed rock suites are called 'fusion' in the U.S.. In the U.K. jazz and rock combine in the style called 'canterbury'. In France it's called 'zuehl'. Freakout, jam style bands in Germany are called 'krautrock'; elsewhere they are called 'spacerock' and 'jambands'. Bands whos sound is dominated by synthesizers as both rhythm and lead instruments are called 'electronic'. There are many progressive style rock artists who are unclassifiable, who pushed the boundaries of rock in the late 60s and early 70s in completely unique ways such as Funkadelic, Frank Zappa and the early Santana band.
Prog is a nebulous term applied to artists who play rock instrumentation without regard to commercial, pop radio format restraints of song length and/or improvisational content.
Some examples of 70s prog artists beside those already mentioned are Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Soft Machine, Magma, Embryo, Osibisa, Gong and Tangerine Dream.
Some examples of prog in the new millenium are The Flower Kings, Kenso, Ozric Tentacles, Groove Collective, Deus Ex Machina and Radio Massacre International.

Get the proby mug.Packed with progressive elements, esp. regarding the genre adjective which applies to music - i.e. progressive rock, progressive metal, progressive folk, etc. "Progressive" generally connotes virtuosic instrumentation, incorporation of exotic sounds/instruments, use of uncommon time signatures, unusual/abstract lyrical subject matter, etc.
I'm sort of OK with Coheed and Cambria, I guess, but they are not nearly as proggy as Dream Theater or The Mars Volta. They sound like a less-proggy version of Rush, except Rush didn't have an emo influence.

Get the proggy mug.A word abbreviated from Progressively Hard-as-a-Rock, which also is loosely translates to Progressive Rock. This genre of music, as well as bands dedicated to it, is known for its tendency to give listeners the most intense orgasms known to humankind. Musicians who play prog are thought to be Trans-dimensional Gods from another world, who have a zenith of skill higher than any other being in existence, whether it be of imagination or reality.
Some are examples of Prog Rock are as follows: Rush, the unearthly projective illusion of raw musical skill; Dream Theater, the offspring of Rush, whom are considered above all others in complexity; Pink Floyd, the acid trip you'll never forget, complete with the only side effects being longer and more intense orgasms; Porcupine Tree, the ominous shadow of pure musical pleasure. Please remember these four super-organism colonies are an obscenely minuscule fraction of the entire entity that is the Progressive Realm.
