Not to be confused with the English expressions "<a href="/wiki/Progressive_music" title="Progressive music">progressive music</a>" or "<a href="/wiki/Prog_rock" class="mw-redirect" title="Prog rock">prog rock</a>," progg is a contraction of the <a href="/wiki/Swedish_language" title="Swedish language">Swedish</a> word for musical <a href="/wiki/Progressivism" title="Progressivism">progressivism</a>, <i>progressiv musik</i>. While there were progg bands playing progressive rock, the progg movement encompassed many different musical genres. </p><p>The political progg movement culminated around the 1975 <a href="/wiki/Eurovision_Song_Contest" title="Eurovision Song Contest">Eurovision Song Contest</a>, which was held in <a href="/wiki/Stockholm" title="Stockholm">Stockholm</a> after <a href="/wiki/ABBA" title="ABBA">ABBAs</a> victory in <a href="/wiki/Brighton" title="Brighton">Brighton</a> the year before. It was expressed that "music can't be a contest" and an "alternative festival" was held in protest.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Due to this debate, Sweden did not participate in the 1976 Eurovision Song Contest. </p><p>The progg movement was closely connected to similar movements in arts, theatre and design, as well as alternative lifestyles and left wing views. While being a political movement, some bands labelled as progg were nonetheless unaligned with any political agenda. The people playing and listening to this music came to be called <i>proggare</i> (literally "proggers") in Swedish. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg/220px-G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="141" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg/330px-G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg/440px-G%C3%A4rdesfesten_1971.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3150" data-file-height="2020" /></a><figcaption>Gärdet festival 1971</figcaption></figure> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Progg&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Alternative bands began to form in the late 1960s, but the movement emerged in full in the summer of 1970. A big alternative music festival was held at the field <a href="/wiki/G%C3%A4rdet" title="Gärdet">Gärdet</a> in <a href="/wiki/Stockholm" title="Stockholm">Stockholm</a> between June 12 and June 14. The festival was illegal, as a permission for it had not been obtained <sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (November 2008)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup>. The new independent record company <i>Silence</i> released a compilation record with music from the festival as their first record, and signed some of the bands that played, including <a href="/wiki/Tr%C3%A4d,_Gr%C3%A4s_och_Stenar" class="mw-redirect" title="Träd, Gräs och Stenar">Träd, Gräs och Stenar</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Gudibrallan&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Gudibrallan (page does not exist)">Gudibrallan</a>. In 1971 MNW was formed. During this decade the progg movement had a strong position in the musical landscape of Sweden. </p><p>At the end of the 1970s, however, the movement started to decline, as many of the bands disintegrated and the <i>music forums</i> were closed. The left wing ideals became less dominating among young people, and the rock and folk music also became less popular than new genres such as <a href="/wiki/Hard_rock" title="Hard rock">hard rock</a> and <a href="/wiki/Electronic_music" title="Electronic music">electronic music</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_movement">The movement</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Progg&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: The movement"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Many musicians and people working with music in the end of the 1960s were against the commercialism of pop music. Notably, the record companies <a href="/wiki/Silence_Records" title="Silence Records">Silence</a> and <a href="/wiki/MNW_Music" title="MNW Music">MNW</a> were formed, and started to record and release this new music. They created a new distribution company, <i>SAM-distribution</i>, which distributed the records of the alternative record companies, and so called <i>music forums</i>, places where concerts could be held without a commercial middleman such as ordinary concert arrangers were created in many Swedish cities. In the middle of the 1970s around 75 music forums existed. The word that was generally used about the movement was <i>musikrörelsen</i>, which means the music movement. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_music">The music</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Progg&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: The music"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Progg did not have a uniform sound and featured a broad spectrum of musical styles.

Some bands, like <a href="/wiki/Nationalteatern" title="Nationalteatern">Nationalteatern</a>, still go on long tours in the 21st century performing their old songs for a new generation.
