INTP (5w4)
Progressive Rock personality type is INTP, and I can hear it – especially in the music.
(I also find it interesting to note that, as an INTP, I can categorically say that I am not a hipster.)
So, what kind of music do INTPs listen to?
INTPs are often found listening to jazz and classical music, but what about rock music?
Although I am a huge fan of metal and rock, the one genre of music I felt was a natural fit for me was progressive rock.
Progressive rock is a fusion of rock and classical music. Many of the characteristics of rock music are fused with instruments from other categories, such as classical music and folk music. In fact, there are many types of rock music that are considered progressive rock.
Some progressive rock bands include:
Yes
The Moody Blues
Van der Graaf Generator
Genesis
Pink Floyd
King Crimson
Marillion
Yes is a notable progressive rock band. The band Yes was formed in 1968 by vocalist Jon Anderson, keyboardist Chris Squire, bassist/guitarist Steve Howe, and drummer Bill Bruford.
Progressive rock is a broad genre of rock music that developed in the United Kingdom and United States throughout the mid- to late 1960s, peaking in the early 1970s. Initially termed "progressive pop", the style was an outgrowth of psychedelic bands who abandoned standard pop traditions in favour of instrumentation and compositional techniques more frequently associated with jazz, folk, or classical music. Additional elements contributed to its "progressive" label: lyrics were more poetic, technology was harnessed for new sounds, music approached the condition of "art", and the studio, rather than the stage, became the focus of musical activity, which often involved creating music for listening rather than dancing. Prog is based on fusions of styles, approaches and genres, involving a continuous move between formalism and eclecticism.
