Not dead but stuck on repeat, and has been for quite some time.

Yeah, but everything is.

And any innovations to the rock genre will always be labeled as "prog."

Rock is dead? I think not! One of my favorite bands Marillion:

Definitely a powerful song with a strong message. Love all the different moods this song explores. Steve Rothery's guitar solo at the end is especially gorgeous.

It's the typical cycle:

       
  • Innovations.
  • Fault is found with the innovations.
  • A "back to the roots!" cry is raised.
  • After a short time, puttering with the roots gets boring.
  • Innovation....

"To me, a music lover is one who loves things which I love myself; it is music, not style. Whether it is Bach or Mozart, Beethoven or Brahms, Wagner or Mahler, Richard Strauss and modern music, and even Offenbach and Johann Strauss; all this is music, and all this deserves Love."

-- Schoenberg, in letter from 19-Oct-1947.

Rock isn't dead, since it's roots, Blues, is alive!
