Of this 20 % other prog genres two belong to metal that is very closely related to rock music and one is progressive electronic that is closely tied to progressive rock.Hi,I would agree here. Not to say that PA does not have its good points, but in the end, there is other progressive music that is not "Rock" but show just as good attention to "progressive" details as anything else, but they lack the LOUDNESS and the FORMAT that both PA and others have decided make "progressive" important, which is a bit bizarre in my book, since the idea at the start was to create something that was against the "pop" side of things, and things that "tripped" way out ... something that pop music does not do, unless it uses some way out lyrics to make us "believe" that it is trippy or psychedelic, when it is neither.Progressive Electronic is something else ... because its definition is not clear, and it is also not on par with "music" and its definition. For the most part, the two big examples are Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream (not after EF!!!), whose music was extended to an incredible degree, and had much more in common with classical traditions than they did "progressive" of any kind ... but since the folks that defined "progressive rock" or "progressive music" do not listen to anything else, they think that a misguided title is better than nothing to detail anyone's music. TD, for example, almost fits in an area called "progressive movie", since so much of their music (all with EF) had a nice context and sort of story to tell, which most "progressive rock" music does not have, and instead is relying on LYRICS to tell us that something is true or happening ... nothing like false idols and cheap stories to convince us of nothing!IF, we want to improve this discussion and ideas, we have to come together and agree on a better, and more descriptive material for what "progressive" anything is ... and a guitar solo, or a blue guitar, or a transition, is not enough ... since all music has included that for hundreds of years ... which tells you that MUSIC LISTENING is not something that is worked with for many of those folks ... all they know is a few songs and the hits!To do work with "progressive" you can not be looking for, or at, hits ... you have to develop your inner sense to listen to the music, not just the fake lyrics and formats!
