that i agree on, it is perception but if you want to push that
perception into a manner to suit your beliefs then fair enough, its
dogma! Of course some bands were influenced but there were a whole lot
who werent. You may identify with your heroes - which is why they ARE
your heroes - but they are not mine. They never were. Doesnt make one

who gives a f*ck about prog rock as if that qualifies ones ability to
state a point? im not the same as you Alex, dont claim to be. You are
into rocknroll, im not really. Im not into metal or whatever gendre. i

trash dressed in leather and black eye liner. Once it becomes
mainstream im off.
