*Uhhh, rightā¦Duh! Progressive music! It took me a while.

*Prog can mean different things these daysā¦ When Iām talking about āProgā, Iām generally speaking of its classic sense - the Progressive Rock movement that began in the late 60s early 70sā¦ Bands like Yes, King Crimson, Genesis (Peter Gabriel), PFM, Gentle Giantā¦ And those bands carrying on the torch today - Flower Kings, Transatlantic, Spockās Beard, Glass Hammer, etcā¦ Of course Yes & Crimson are still pioneering new territory on the prog scene after 40!!!] yearsā¦
But Iām into other stuff tooā¦ Jazz, Classical, Folk, Acousticā¦ I have a big Praise & Worship collection tooā¦
So what kind of music are you into???
Grace & Peace

A narrow definition is that it was an English rock movement of the early '70ās. Bands like Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, Emerson Lake and Palmer being some of the big names.
A broader definition is a group that uses a traditional rock lineup but incorporates elements and virtuosity from the Western classical tradition.

Iāve not heard them myself, but there seems to be more than a few Swedish prog-rock bands. I think Flower Kings is Swedish. FK has Christians in it of some kind, and on their album Unfold the Future they have a song āDevilās Playgroundā which is a scathing critique of modern morality and describes a battle between Satan and Mary and has this sweet verse:
*Swallowing the endless laughter
Cultivate the seven sins
Getting even altogether
Hiding from the Holy Mother
This is how you raise the Cain
This is what you teach our children
Back on duty, dog eat dog
Clueless in the Devilās Playground*
Another Swedish band is Veni Domine, who I have not heard which is apparently more power metal than prog and I seem to recall them having a song called āThe Massā.
As a bass player it is pretty hard not to like fusion like Weather Report and bassist Jaco.
In prog rock I like Chris Squire, Tony Levin and FK bassman Jonas Reingold (A Jaco clone, but a *good * Jaco clone.)
Other bassists would be Geddy Lee, Steve Harris of Iron Maiden (gasp!).

Aaaahā¦ When I was in high school and college I listened to aternative/punk musicā¦The Cure, the Smiths, ect.
Now I perfer Folk, Accoustic, Jazz and Classical. My Christian music tends to lean the way of Folk and Accoustic: Ginny Owens, Fernando Ortega.
