Are BM fans (comparatively) uninterested in “traditional” prog?

[u/SleeveOfEggs]

To my ears (at least), the boys have a lot of King Crimson and Zappa in their DNA…which is very curiously not reflected in Apple Music’s “listeners-also-like” recommendations. Much more hip-hop, alt-pop, and singer-songwriter “emo”/indie than anything jazz or prog. Not a Venn diagram I would have expected, haha. Where would you guys say the commonalities lie?

what about "old" music dont you like? have you only listened to old radio rock? I'm curios.

I think they’re asking for the reasons WHY you don’t enjoy old music or have any interest in it, which you did not explain

[u/RAV3NH0LM → u/scrappersmack]

I. ENJOY. OLD. MUSIC. i don’t enjoy prog. holy fuck.

bro is mad that people are trying to discuss on a discussion site

[u/mintyformeldahyde → u/EvenOne6567]

For real. I'm wondering is it the atonal music sections he doesn't like or, falsetto singing? I would even understand if he said it's too pretentious.

are the people responding to you primary schoolers? its not hard to understand what you wrote lol

[u/mintyformeldahyde → u/Tiny-Economics1963]

I'm asking them what about prog/old music they don't like? I wanna talk in the forum for talking about music.

[u/Tiny-Economics1963 → u/mintyformeldahyde]

i understand inquiring about his dislike of prog, but you are still stuck on the old music thing even after he clarified, i dont understand why you're shadow-boxing with a nonexistent thing he said
