WELCOME BACK ALL OF MY FRIENDS TO THE THREAD THAT NEVER ENDS ETC.
Yeah, actually not a big fan of Brain Salad Surgery. Tarkus (the track) is the best work they ever did. Be that as it may, gather 'round and let us discuss the true music. The way of the cape. The beauty of extended improvised parts. The glory of neatly composed tracks filling an entire side of an LP. This, friends, is unimpeachable. It is known.

I haven't listened to this for ages and some would argue it isn't prog, technically, but I'm pretty sure long spacey meandering sections and splitting the band onto one disc and the synth/noise stuff onto another to be played at the same time is pretty fucking prog.
As is the album name.
Qualified.

Reposting this (legendary) performance. It was a live-in-studio 1-take at bbc.

The album version is good too
(The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other) but this live version is just special.
One of those caught-lightning-in-a-bottle moments
Shoutout to Pawn Hearts/Elvind
Personally I don't (typically) like linking to non-approved uploaded recordings, especially albums. Live/OOP is the exception

I mean, yeah, it's just annoying rad isn't a genre.
Or, not.
Either way,

And we have a new sig.

The Mars Volta covered the Circle Jerks once, so it can be both.
