It's progressive 'by default'. You haven't really listened to many of their albums, so I wouldn't say you have the full handle of what they have done. Wikipedia genre titles are just fairly accurate, and they give you next to no information of what the band sounds like. It's also pretty wrong to allow the fact that people read a lot into them to affect your opinion of them.

Surely you don't need to listen to a band's entire discography to realise what type of music they're making? Piper was very psychedelic, then as their career got on I guess they went more Progressive with DSOTM.

I think with most bands, 2 of their best records you know what they're about. Blur - 13, Modern Life Is Rubbish. Bob Dylan - highway 61 revisited, blood on the tracks. Black Sabbath - S/T.

So 3 is more than enough.

Last FM discussions piss me off. I read one about the best band in Manchester.. laughable, almost.

NME might have tried to make it a genre, but it wasn't. It was an Era. Notice how none of the main bands sound the same.

Yes
Also take into account:
Super Furry Animals
Suede
Oasis
3 Britpop bands, that couldn't be more different.

I think Oasis Blur suffices..

Blur were innovative and experimental.

Oasis were plug in and play, apart from Liam's tambourine. - key to their success.

Then again, Wiki > you. I love Wiki.

My example was more advanced as all 3 had diifferent influences, styles, genres, everything.
But Oasis vs. Blur will do.

Suede and Blur were similarish. I think Oasis/Blur were polar opposites, I really can't find anything they really have in common apart from having front men as dicks.
