I think that new interesting music is always raising
from the musical
scene. I tended on believing that "music died in
1979", but there is a
whole world outside of prog-rock of the 70's. Prog
rock is not bad (in
fact is some of my fave music), but has its
limitations, cannot express
many things that other styles (such as minimalism,
post rock,
avant-garde, math-rock, slowcore, experimental
rock...) can.  

I think we should have more open minds, music keeps
on living and
reinventing itself, and new experimental, exciting
and very enjoyable
music is all around, but you have to stop looking
for prog tags, because
you will mostly find newprog wannabies willing to
recreate another
"Selling England..." or "Close to the edge". "Close
to the edge" is a
masterpiece, but its time has passed... If you don't
believe me take a
look out there to groups/artists like Sigur Ròs, Max
Ritcher, Library
Tapes, GY!BE, Mûm, Afterklang, Dirty Tree... just to
name a few. 

Best.
