is Rush good?
>>122719947What about progressive metal?
>>122720024Whoops.https://youtu.be/GFFZDQ9T3Dg?si=yyIYvJ_8ugACYiQo
never noticed until recently how police-sounding this song ishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQRShD0xuAk>>122719999mostly not but they have a few good albums. Signals in particular is very good
>Listening to symphonic prog
>>122719999yeah
>>122720024I like prog and I like metal, but I don't like prog metal
>>122720246They were unabashed Police fanboys, and they recorded in the same studio so they crossed paths quite a bit. IMO Distant Early Warning is Alex's most conscious attempt at copping Andy Summers' style. There are even riffs that sound like they were lifted directly from Synchronicity II.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEPLY9h_nZo
>>122719947Pic related is the true synth prog masterpiece, but Signals is also amazing, so it’s a win-win basically.
>>122720330It grew on me a lot. I used to prefer Power Windows but realized Grace is the more consistent set even if PW has higher highs.
does /prog/ like King Crimson by any chance?
the great debate
Just listened to Close to the Edge for the first time. The first track might be the best rock track I've ever heard
>>122720976wow really? i've never heard it, must be pretty obscure.
>>122720996just getting into prog rock m80
>>122721032nope, what band/artist is it?
Kill Steven Wilson. Behead Steven Wilson. Roundhouse kick Steven Wilson into the concrete. Slam dunk Steven Wilson into the trashcan. Crucify filthy Steven Wilson. Defecate in Steven Wilson's food. Launch Steven Wilson into the sun. Stir fry Steven Wilson in a wok. Toss Steven Wilson into an active volcano. Urinate into Steven Wilson's gas tank. Judo throw Steven Wilson into a wood chipper. Twist Steven Wilson's heads off. Report Steven Wilson to the IRS. Karate chop Steven Wilson in half. Curb stomp pregnant Steven Wilson. Trap Steven Wilson in quicksand. Crush Steven Wilson in the trash compactor. Liquefy Steven Wilson in a vat of acid. Eat Steven Wilson. Dissect Steven Wilson. Exterminate Steven Wilson in the gas chamber. Stomp Steven Wilson's skull with steel toed boots. Cremate Steven Wilson in the oven. Lobotomize Steven Wilson. Mandatory abortions for Steven Wilson. Grind Steven Wilson fetuses in the garbage disposal. Drown Steven Wilson in fried chicken grease. Vaporize Steven Wilson with a ray gun. Kick old Steven Wilson down the stairs. Feed Steven Wilson to alligators. Slice Steven Wilson with a katana.

Good morning, /prog/. This is a reminder to listen to LTIA's 50th Anniversary remaster.
>>122723510is that you?
Alex bros...
>>122720330I don't get why Signals filters so many fans of Moving Pictures. It's not that synth-dominated; Alex Lifeson gets a ton of great solos and guitar parts.
>>122721232Which Xbox game is this
This is a top 3 Yes album and I'm tired of pretending it's not.
>>122726559it's a 6.5/10
>>1227265591. Close to the Edge2. Yes Album3. Relayer4. Going for the One5. DramaYes 69 would probably be 6 or 7
>>122719999NoBut they do have some songs here and there that could be considered "good"
this is the best modern prog album I've heardAnything similar or better you can rec?I've listened to mostly everything from before 1990 already.
Why do a lot of people only like Beat and TOAPP's songs live? Were their major malfunction just production?
>>122727440Why you going Fragile like that
>>122730850The solo tracks really bring it down
Listen to Manfred Mann's Earth Band
>>122720246>>122720328I've got an uneducated faggot question: what would you call the echoing guitar licks that are in Distant Early Warning/a lot of Synchronicity era Police music?
ween is prog :)
>>122730804>Were their major malfunction just production?Yes, but thats just KC, they have always been a live band more than a studio one
>>1227265591. Talk2. Close to the Edge3. Fragile4. Relayer5. Drama
>>122731516Based. Manfred Mann is great; I highly recommend pic rel.
What does /prog/ think about This Heat?
>>122730278This is good. Thanks for sharing.
>>122733516i was a bigger fan of Quiet Sun, but they did some good stuff here. Paper Hats really stands out
>>122733516they don't have a single bad album, Deceit is a masterpiece, but i think i like their first album more.
>>122733336>1. Talkgood one
>>122733516I like everything they've done a fair bit. I also really like SGM's cover of SPQR
>>122720938I do
Acknowledge Relayer
>>122735547RelayerAll the dying cried before youRelayerWe've rejoiced in all their meaningRelayerWe advance we retrace our storiesFAIL SAFE NOW
>>122735547overrated
>>122733857idk man it just hits different, I've listened to whole Talk like 100 times already.
>>122734676are you sure?
recommend me some instrumental prog rock albums you like
>>122735832everything by anglagard
>>122735547To Be Over was my last song of carefreedom before graduating and plunging into responsibility
>>122735832The snow goose
>>122719999Saw them back in '78. Was not impressed. They clearly thought they were a lot better than they actually were as well.
>>122724802yea
>>122735832Univers Zero - 1313, Heresie, Uzed also Heatwave is their best but start with the others.
>>122741107Why do so many people consider Heatwave their best work?I am genuinely just curious.
>>122731516Incredibly based, On the Road to Babylon is one of the most incredible songs I've listened to and I have never heard many talk about it.
>>122741708Mann bros unite
>>122731777Preen is wog :(
does Wishbone Ash have anything worth listening to after Argus? i really like their first three albums, but i wasn't a huge fan of Four, is it just more of that?
What caused this?
>>122736636get with the times
>>122743662caused what? pink floyd being way more popular than camel? it's always been like that
happy prog :)
>>122719999When they're good, they can stand with some of the best prog. A Farewell to Kings and Hemispheres are the band's peak.
>>122743662Popular = bad, therefore Camel is the best band
