04.02.13 | dumb list |
wabbit
04.02.13 | is Can not prog?
I dunno.
But Can is better than all of these but the floyd |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | Can would def fit right in here quality wise, but I consider them more on the psych/experimental side than prog. |
Yazz_Flute
04.02.13 | King Crimson is 1. |
Chortles
04.02.13 | Damn this is an impossible list to make they're all 5/5 bands |
foxblood
04.02.13 | sup yank dumb list but i see that you have recently rated both mods carve the pig and strange times so gj |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | like i said chort its a dumb list |
Chortles
04.02.13 | Wow don't say that this list transcends |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | yo fox those albs get the blood flowing downstairs let me tell ya |
sideburndude
04.02.13 | Supper's Ready man |
NeroCorleone80
04.02.13 | Yes and Camel should be 1 and 2 |
foxblood
04.02.13 | mods carve the pig is that true shit. 61 votes is blasphemy but that's how sput rolls
man i haven't even made a dent in the massive list of prog albums i have to check out thanx to jethro and co. |
Chortles
04.02.13 | Jammed mods like twice but didn't really dig that much, I need to give it another go |
KILL
04.02.13 | rush is life |
NeroCorleone80
04.02.13 | No, LIFE is RUSH |
Jethro42
04.02.13 | Nice list. I'd go with the big ten in adding ELP, Gentle Giant and Supertramp. |
oltnabrick
04.02.13 | comus swag |
ViperAces
04.02.13 | camel is 6??~?~?!! well every band here rules so ahrd so this is ok |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | I obv coulda kept going Jethro but these bands are just tier 1 as far as popularity goes.
Gentle Giant
ELP
Supertramp
Van Der Graaf Gen
Caravan
Soft Machine
etc are prob 2nd Tier.
Although ELP is prob up there popularity wise and have some great songs, they arent as transcendent as these guys. |
Jethro42
04.02.13 | fair enough |
JamieTwort
04.02.13 | 5 is 1. |
evilford
04.02.13 | in case there was any question where jt stood on this issue [: |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | Fragile is replaced by CTTE, Wish You Were Here is replaced with Dark Side, Larks is replaced by Red, and....... CAMEL?! |
XGX
04.02.13 | lol at krautrock comment |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | The albums arent really important they're just here to rep the bands. And are you saying you dont know who camel is or..... |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | gian my man do you prog???? |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | No, I know who Camel is. It's just that when I heard "Big 7", I thought it meant "most famous". Sorry, my misunderstanding. |
XGX
04.02.13 | I kraut and rio harder but progs awesome |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | Well it does sorta Stallion. These are all the most popular 70s prog bands on sputnik. Camel is def the 7th on this list popularity wise but they edge out anybody else really. |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | But I still think those 3 albums are better than the 3 on the list. Not really a Camel fan, either... |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | Pity |
oltnabrick
04.02.13 | the mars volta? |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | TMV isn't 70's prog. |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | you sure? |
oltnabrick
04.02.13 | i think they are, h8rs gonna h8r |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | And also, A Farewell To Kings should be replaced with Hemispheres. |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | no it shouldnt did you not just read what i said stop talking now you're irritating brick |
MikeC26
04.02.13 | Nice list! |
Chortles
04.02.13 | Wow stallion autism speaks |
MikeC26
04.02.13 | If you aren't down with camel you can fuck right off! |
evilford
04.02.13 | 'Camel is def the 7th on this list popularity wise but they edge out anybody else really.'
could have sworn Camel would have been like #3 behind rush and floyd in terms of sput popularity |
evilford
04.02.13 | but I'm just now starting to prog so w/e |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | Yeah, Camel's actually fairly well-known on Sputnik, but not as much elsewhere. |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | well camel has become celebs here thanks to guys like Kill whoring em out constantly. but they still have less ratings than
all these other chaps ford.
and nah stallion they're def around the 7th biggest prog band on sites like RYM and Progarchives too. its not just sputnik.
they're at least top 10. |
Cygnatti
04.02.13 | Yanks, you know this list is dumb when I know 100% of the bands here, ugh. |
StallionMang
04.02.13 | Oh, I'm sure Camel's probably 7th biggest on other music sites, but really, what other well-known 70's prog bands are there besides these 7? |
YankeeDudel
04.02.13 | Maybe read the thread and find out |
Chortles
04.02.13 | damn ford you're in for a journey |
Donchivo
04.17.13 | Well I also would consider ELP to be a lot bigger than Camel.. but thats maybe my european view. Sure as hell they are here.
top 7 should read:
1. King Crimson
2. Yes
3. Jethro Tull
4. Genesis
5. Pink Floyd
6. Rush
7. Camel
ELP would be rank 5 for me. |
NightProwler
04.17.13 | 1 is the best album, 4 is the best band |
NightProwler
04.17.13 | "Well I also would consider ELP to be a lot bigger than Camel.."
This is true, IMO. I prefer Camel, but ELP is/was much bigger |
DrHouseSchuldiner
04.17.13 | List rules |
Friday13th
04.29.13 | Yeah top 7 prog bands for sure. It's kinda funny you single out Yes as being "a little corny." Oh, and that whimsical part in "Supper's Ready" isn't corny at all! haha |
