I used to think I was a prog rock fan but that's not entirely true. I love ''prog rock'' that's usually overblown and has very lengthy songs that have the same structure as a classical song. And that style of music is called ''symphonic rock'' so why not just call it that. There are so many misconceptions about the whole prog rock thing.
That's was well said. And I agree.

They're a pop band, and they hate prog. Incidentally, they're recording again.

I'm a big time Supertramp fan, but King Crimson is BY FAR the best (prog) band ever.

I originally stated...

Crimson or Yes, but I voted for Crimson because they're still growing on me while Yes is doing the opposite.

...this can pretty much be reversed now.
