Well, they certainly were progressive and they certainly were a rock band. But I guess one of the main connotations of prog is that it tends to be pretty technical, with a lot of classical or jazz influences. I suppose that disqualifies Radiohead and VU. But if krautrock bands like Can or Neu! are progressive rock I don't see why Radiohead, VU, or Stereolab wouldn't fall under the same heading.
