Sobre Progressive Rock

O rock progressivo foi a aposta mais ambiciosa da era do rock: e se a música popular pudesse ter a complexidade e a seriedade da música clássica? Bandas como Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, Emerson Lake & Palmer e Rush rejeitaram os limites do single de três minutos e construíram suítes de 20 minutos, óperas-rock, composições em compasso 7/8 com letras sobre mitologia e ficção científica.

King Crimson lançou In the Court of the Crimson King em 1969 e imediatamente estabeleceu os parâmetros do gênero: Mellotron orquestral, guitarra de Robert Fripp elaborada até a abstração, letras herméticas. Yes respondeu com Close to the Edge (1972), que muitos consideram o ponto mais alto do prog: 37 minutos divididos em três faixas de arquitetura sinfônica perfeita.

Genesis era o lado mais teatral: Peter Gabriel usava fantasias elaboradas no palco, e álbuns como The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (1974) eram narrativas densas de duplo LP. Quando Gabriel saiu e Phil Collins assumiu os vocais, a banda sobreviveu. E eventualmente se tornou uma das maiores do pop dos anos 1980, numa transformação que alguns classificam como traição e outros como genialidade.

Rush foi o caso anômalo: uma banda canadense de power trio que fazia prog sem as afetações britânicas, com letras libertárias inspiradas em Ayn Rand e um virtuosismo técnico extraordinário. Seu público de colecionadores é talvez o mais dedicado de qualquer banda de rock. No vinil, o prog exige prensagens de alta qualidade: a dinâmica extrema e a densidade orquestral de álbuns como Tales from Topographic Oceans precisam de cada mícron dos sulcos.
