To keep this in perspective, it must be said that many people are introduced to the nebulous progressive genre through the more mainstream examples of the style. ![]() It's just that the constant rehashing of specific stylistic elements of this niche, such as Yes like vocal harmonies, cliché ridden choruses, and instrumentalists virtually in the same style as a major influence, are going beyond trite. I don't want to be too hard on that style of symphonic rock, as many of them are artistically honest, lovingly crafted and well produced. It's terribly sad to me that many people's impression of "progressive rock" goes no farther than Yes, Genesis, or their countless soundalikes. Glass Hammer - Perelandra (Arion no#, 1995, CD) ![]()
