Description

Progressive rock emerged in the late 1960s as musicians pushed beyond traditional rock boundaries, incorporating classical music structures, jazz improvisation, and experimental sounds. The genre features complex time signatures, extended instrumental passages, and concept albums that prioritize artistic ambition over commercial appeal. Songs often exceed typical length constraints and showcase virtuoso musicianship alongside philosophical or fantastical lyrical themes.
