"Progressive rock in particular, uses elements very close to classical music except they are working in electronics. The emotional content is way higher than pop music and some of the topics that they're about, while not always immediately apparent can be quite serious."
Written by Ian, I agree. King Crimson's album "Red" is almost unlistenable for me due to the 'emotional content'. A bit of Tool feels like breeze but bands like Gore and King Crimson created albums that can get under your skin and alter your state of mind.
Great thread...

Maybe I'll whap through an album every now and then, Dave. I don't want to bore people but if they have it, I kind of find it interesting to follow the notes while I listen when others do it.
Then I start noticing things that weren't mentioned!!
