Most infuriating music fans: Boobs edition

Inorite?

And I think that Radiohead pushed (mainly on OK Computer and Kid A)- and are still pushing- boundaries more than Nirvana did.
 
That's fine but it makes opinions about who does or doesn't push boundaries completely irrelevant because there's no frame of reference, no sense of what boundaries existed in the place and time a work was created and as a result no way of discerning if they were pushed or not. Which makes me wonder why you'd even bother bringing up the subject of pushing boundaries in the first place, since the very concept is entirely dependent on context.
 
Thank you for only proving my point.

Radiohead are not a prog band (though I think they have material that qualifies as prog), but I think Muse are, for Origin of Symmetry alone.

And Marillion, they may not be progressive, but you'd have to be insane to think they're not prog. Though I'm not a fan of them, I have to admit they played a very imporant role in keeping prog alive throughout the 80s.
 
I ain't a metalhead & I see Pearl Jam, Soundgarden & Alice In Chains as all being superior to Nirvana. You cant stereotype things like that. Also, I must ask where do you fit in amongst all this?
 
And as the Prog-Rock singer, Meatloaf, once sang "2 outta 3 ain't bad."
it is wiki-fied that Marillion and Muse are Prog. sorry man :(

If Billy Joel is a Prog-Rocker then so is Meatloaf!

Marillion
origin: Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England
genre: Progressive rock, Neo-progressive rock, Art rock

Radiohead
origin: Abingdon, OxforRABhire, England
genre: Alternative rock, Electronica, Experimental rock

Muse
origin: Teignmouth, Devon, England
genre: Alternative rock, progressive rock, new prog
 
boo boo how did you manage to get yourself bullied by every music clique throughout your youth? was it your annoying (and undeserved) tendency to run your mouth off, or your "easy target" appearance? maybe both?
 
I knew you'd say that, because his taste is so similar to mine it's creepy.

And when he says there are no good modern prog banRAB, I think he means in the traditional sense of what people associate with prog, and like him I'm pretty disinterested in the neo prog stuff.

All the good prog now is the kinda stuff that no stubborn prog elitist will ever admit is prog.
 
Wrong. ALL metal fans who only listen to metal are fucking twonks who revel in their supposed open minded approach to music when in fact there are even more culpable than those that they treat with disdain. I know. That's why I cut my hair off and got rid of the denim jacket years ago. Apparently I sold out because I also liked Marillion and some Reggae. Idiots.
 
New prog is a term used for modern banRAB who corabine prog and alternative rock influences.

Mars Volta, Coheed and Carabria, Muse and Oceansize for example.



Yeah but neither are you. I know you think otherwise.



I'd love for you to provide me a band that sounRAB like Radiohead, before Radiohead, that'll be good for a laugh.

They have tested their fanbase and mainstream appeal time and time again with the most drastic style changes. I'd love to see how you twist that into them being just a generic rock band who only conform to popular trenRAB.
 
Experimenting, trying new things, not making the expected moves.

How do you define pushing boundaries? And in what way did Nirvana do so more than Radiohead? That's the crux of the issue here. I'm not claiming that Radiohead are the most experimental, most boundary pushing band ever. All I'm saying is they are much more so than Nirvana. I'm pretty curious about what reasons you have for proposing the reverse.
