Good call on Gentle Giant, TTR (Andy)!
Listened to them some BITD, but didn't really know what was representative.
I think your answer, the correct one, to the young woman's query was: "Peter Frampton!". (Mostly adolescent ear candy, as is, admittedly, some of prog).
YES, with their knack for emotive hooks and musical m$ney passages, probably would've worked well enough.
But, Gentle Giant, like Jethro Tull on baroque steroids, with their syncopated, almost dry, atonal (?) phrasings ... You were doomed. Ha ha.

^^^ Love that guy, Les Claypool, essentially the headliner of Primus!
Virtuoso bass player, keen storyteller, and KICKASSS™ humorist. Probably a bit of a control freak too, but odds are good he'd be fun to party with!
Excited to tool through Psilopcyborg offerings after a bit.
(BTW, Who was it that put that Swedish stuff up for about 10 min. yesterday? We need that back! ... some of us Americans don't get out that much ...)

Ho man, that Psychedelic Breakfast guitarist!
Steve Howe, Pete Townsend, little bit of Dickie Betts thrown in there sideways, f*#king Buck Owens, Ritchie Blackmore, (no Roy Buchanan) a little taste of Zappa on the tremolo, and God knows who else but himself, and he be the shitt!
All the rest of them' PsCy cuts = good eatin' and good livin'.
Thread is starting to cook!

Bringer of War ... Ridley Scott used it in Gladiator, but in pop culture, ELP was there first!
Intricate instrumentals notwithstanding, progressive can be at its best when it goes thematic.

BITD, my only association with Primus was the Devil went to Georgia. Sort of strange because I was listening to a lot of similar music.
I discovered Les Claypool when he played at Coachella seven, or so, years ago. I don't think I realized at the time he had been with Primus.
Had another chance to see him at Outside Lands:

That Claypool Lennon Delirium rendition of Floyd's Astronomy Domine is aural mind-candy!
Some of those power cords from the Geraldine Fibbers band, along with the somewhat plaintive vocal style, reminded me of the surf-punk pop rock crew Weezer, whom I've enjoyed in the past, so I listened to them for a bit, and decided her (Carla Bozulich's) stuff is tinged more with that alt-industrial flavor, when compared to Weezer.
Found it compelling, like a fusion of Weezer and Courtney Love's Grunge band, Hole, so had to read up on the band in Wikipedia:
The Geraldine Fibbers were an alt-country band founded in 1994 by Carla Bozulich. Initially, band members included Bozulich, Daniel Keenan, Julie Fowells, William Tutton and Kevin Fitzgerald.[1] While Bozulich had previously been known for noisy industrial music, The Geraldine Fibbers fused American roots music and blues-influenced punk.[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geraldine_Fibbers
