"hard" rock

Students,

Professor Batmatiks has been overhearing much talk of "hard" rock these days. Many names have been mentioned (Glove/Special Sauce, Muse, HELLYEAH, etc.), but none of these stay true to the classics. These new, experimental acts are quite progressive. Hard? Certainly not. Progressive? Certainly. But can something be progressive and HARD? Yes! However, how many hard progressive bands are there these days? Besides Mr. West, not too many. Dwell on this, friends.
