Pink Floyd has nothing to do with punk. U2 has nothing to do with prog. Bad Religion tried prog but never combined it with punk.

it's not an oxymoron, Punk can be more creative, esoteric, and experimental than the stagnant 70's progressive rock scene.

Yeah, it's a bit of a wanky self-applied genre, but at the same time it's nice to see Cardiacs as the top artist for something.

reply to :- BlockJuice isn't this the same thing as post-punk? No not really, post-punk was more of a Krautrock (German Prog - Prog which Punks could like) or Gothic Rock general direction, although this area of rock was all a little vague really & crossed over with the more pop New Wave.Some post-punk bands had dub, reggae, funk & disco influences even. Agree not very well outlined above.Basically any music that has a bit of Punk & Prog influences in it's eclectic mix - that's a broad area though.Very much for the broad minded listener.In the mid to late '70's the extreme ends of rock were divided into Punk or Prog (including arty Proto-Metal bands) at the other end.Many of the musicians on both sides of the divide have 'come-out' & admitted they had influences that was forbidden though - this is the area of bands that you will find Pronk :-P

@WerBack: How can you say that DT has "not a single fricking idea"? Did you analyzed their lyrics, and their music totally? They're much more than making solos. Dude, the one who has no idea is you.

Punk is by no mean simple music - goddamn it, if you think - the whole sludge scene, one of the most complex metal scenes, started from the hardcore punk. And also, check NoMeansNo before calling this tag "stupid". And Dead Kennedys - fuck, they are more progressive than Dream Theatre for me! The music's OK when there's more idea than solos! And Dream Theater is full of solos and not a single fricking idea.
