REV. ADAM MCKINNEY: $2000 PUMA AT THE NEW FRONTIER TONIGHT >>>

Progressive rock, like any other genre, has identifiers and giveaways that can allow one to legitimately describe a band as proggy.

Definition: Proggy is an adjective that denotes a band or song that utilizes complex time signatures; tricky tempo changes; long, frequently noodling solos; and the general divergence from the standard three-and-a-half minute rock format.

Used in a sentence: $2,000 Puma is proggy. Read why here.
