How often do you get blank stares when you tell people you like progressive rock?

I feel like nobody knows what it is. Where I work, maybe one other person likes it. Everyone else has never heard of it at all. Whenever people ask me what I do for a hobby I mention I write progressive rock and they look like I just said something in another language. I have to explain what it is to them. Is it really that obscure?

For reference, I work with people of a variety of ages, from late teens to 50s.

What did Rush think of progressive rock bands and the "genre" in general?

Rush is generally classified under the "Prog Rock" umbrella, and there are common elements, obviously. But they charted a pretty distinctive and unique path, IMO and became less overtly "proggy" as they went on without necessarily going full-on pop like, say, Yes or Genesis.

I know they were influenced by Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Cream in the early days, and I've even read about them playing Vanilla Fudge and the most obscure David Bowie songs they could find, which they then reworked for their early club gigs. Even reggae and The Police influences were fairly apparent later on.

I wonder what they--individually and collectively--thought about prog rock. Did they ever acknowledge being prog rock? Did they hold bands like Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, Zappa, etc, in high regard?

Could Generative AI Drive a Resurgence of Progressive Rock?

Discussion

To be clear: I am not talking about AI generated prog (hell no). Rather, I hypothesize that music that is more easily generated by AI due to predictability (modern pop) might lead to a shift in attention to styles of music that are much harder to replicate by AI, such as prog (because it requires more human skill, creativity and genuine human touch). It is a highly hypothetical scenario of course.

I have been thinking lately about the impact of generative AI in music creation and its possible impact on the musical landscape. We've already seen AI's ability to generate images and the impact it has on digital artistry. Contemporary pop music often follows a relatively predictable structure and in recent years, pop music sounds more and more homogeneous, at least in my opinion. AI algorithms may be able to learn and mimic these predictable patterns, leading to a potential oversaturation of AI-produced pop music in the future. It might not be long before one can generate a simple pop song with the click of a button that just blends in with all the rest.

But here's an interesting thought. As AI becomes more prevalent, and mainstream music potentially more homogenized, could we see a resurgence in more complex, avant-garde genres like progressive rock?

Progressive rock is characterized by its complexity and unpredictability. It often incorporates irregular time signatures, varied song structures, diverse lyrical themes, and a wide range of instruments and sounds. As such, it might be more challenging for an AI to convincingly generate a good progressive music piece than a typical pop song.

Therefore, if the market becomes flooded with AI-generated pop music, will listeners start seeking out music with more complexity and uniqueness? Could this lead to a renaissance of genres like progressive rock, which flourished in the 70s and offered an ambitious and intricate alternative to mainstream rock?

Moreover, could this potential shift also encourage musicians to explore and innovate in these more complex genres, to stand out from AI-generated music and offer something uniquely human and creative? AI could also be used as a tool to innovate and create a whole new type of sound.

Of course it is all just hypothetical and it may not happen at all. Not in the least case because music probably does not play as much of an important role in people's lifes now as it did in the 70s with all the alternatives available now. but I found it an interesting thought. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this.
