my dad listened to that kind of music, so i grew up around it, and i am enamoured with a small amount of it, but i rejected 95% of it as trash and i fully realize that it hasn't existed as a relevant artistic force since before i was even born.

i have absolutely no patience whatsoever for anybody using the term "progressive music" in the year 2021. i will not listen to your record. i don't want to be your friend.
