the fact that we're even having this argument proves that underworld is considered prog by some people!


which actually proves nothing.

by some people is you, and this arguement is hilarious, cause it's like argueing that say: lord of the rings is a kids movie cause it has little hobbits and things that have similarities. you are totally crossing genres, just cause underworlds music is progressive MUSIC doesn't mean it is including in the genre of progressive. just like they woulnd't be included in indie music even though they are on an independent label etc. etc. the term has taken on a new meaning and that meaning is "the type of progressive rock music that mostly causes people ears to bleed and white people to pretend they are doing guitar solos in their car or living room".

Anyhow, i agree with dubmans' points completely. just cause uw has done a few things like minor solos sometimes that doesn't even come close to counting i think. if an artist is hip hop but did one country/folk track on their albumn, like say k-os or someone, that doesn't make them in the country genre..

also i don't think that juanita..., cups, and banstyle... would be considered movements rather than three songs mixed together in a mind-boglingly good/seemless way. it's just not the same i thinkg.

i'd sooner group them as a 'jam band' as they have distinct hints of this while playing on-stage (although then again a jam band site would say no cause they aren't as boring as much as grateful dead or phish )

anyhow, my post is so rambling but i don't care as it won't make any difference in anyones mind cause it's the internet and we are argueing against cyberspace or something inhuman

i don't think y'all are inhuman. you just have different opinions. some people do consider it proggy (see the people who've posted in the thread).

Matt Val, shame on you...what about SPOOKY? Duncan Forbes and Charlie May? Have you no sense of decency sir? Those who do not remember the past, will be doomed to repeat it. And don't try to pull one of these, "oh, i mentioned Guerilla, isn't that good enough" lines. What about Justin Robertson, Zoom + Billy Nasty back when they was Prog? Confernece call is in order here, if you'll kindly close your copy of Excel and direct your attention to the front of the class, we'll begin very shorty.
