I've always said that there's a huge progressive rock, progressive metal audience out there, in the world.

John Petrucci

I've always said that there's a huge progressive rock, progressive metal audience out there, in the world. We see it when we're on tour.

John Petrucci

People who like progressive music tend to sneer at the idea of a kind of punk aesthetic, and people who like alternative indie rock or punk rock tend to sneer at what they see as the pretentiousness and pomposity of progressive music.

Steven Wilson

When we were starting out, there was no "label" as progressive rock - it didn't exist ... so we were just a rock band.

Phil Ehart

I was born in 1963. So the '70s were my teenage years. As a teenager, I was into rock and roll - Bowie, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, even more progressive music like Genesis, and I was into a lot of British rock and roll. But I loved also American rock and roll. CCR, Jimmie Hendrix, The Doors, Patty Smith, and Bob Dylan.

Jean-Marc Vallee

To be a true Progressive it is not sufficient to stand up and say that one belives in what has been promulgated as progressive principles. One must be progressive in heart and active in promoting the progressive principles of today, tomorrow and always. There is no resting point, for humanity is ever ascending to a higher and better goal.

Charles Lindbergh

Joe Satriani

I thought of reaching out for progressive Israelis, progressive Americans, progressive American Jews - this was probably my main mission.

Ari Shavit

Everything that's rock n roll is ever meant to be is happening now. I need to get over the shock that that thing is actually happening and that thousands of millions of people around the world are watching.

Bob Geldof

I guess you could call my music progressive, pop, rock.

Jeremy Camp

At a young age, I was introduced to Joni Mitchell by my mum. My dad was into progressive rock.

Mura Masa

even when nothing is happening, nothing stands still. ... I am not a rock, but a river; people deceive themselves by seeing me as a rock. Or is it I who deceive them and pretend that I am a rock when I am a river?

Nina Berberova

I think that prog rock is the science fiction of music. Science fiction speculates on what the future might be and look like and how we'll get there, and yet there's always a central theme of humanity, or there should be. Progressive rock has the same concept of exploration into the parts of the music world that hasn't been explored.

William Shatner

I think that good things will happen in the Middle East, in Israel, and to American progressive Jewry only if we work together to save a progressive Israel that progressive Americans can have affinity with again.

Ari Shavit

The Progressive Blues Experiment, Johnny Winter... and Still Alive and Well is my favorite rock record
