Progressive rock is not a simple genre. Surrounded by many myths and legends, it exists since the 60’s of the previous century, having passed its blooming period and come to its climax, having survived a few revivals in 80’s and 90’s to finally reach its reborn nowadays. More difficult and long compositions, a usage of non-standard time signature and polyrhythms, an experiments dedication – these and many other features are well-known by the Ukrainian fans of this independent genre. So luckily, there’s no need to explain it anymore how King Crimson, Yes or Genesis have influenced the sound of Tool, Porcupine Tree, Opeth and The Mars Volta, or how the last ones affected the further prog.
