>>123188085no, why would I recommend a good album
>>123188098that's good i love bad music, thanks, this album is pretty good though, i'm listening to it, i want something truly awful.

>>123187306>>123187556>>123187587I'm happy to see all 3 voivod fans coming out of the wood work to shit on me. Hopefully one day your posting will work and you will a gain 4th fan.
>>123190169he isn't prog in the genre sense, but him and zappa were america's equivalent to the english progressive movement
>>123190169no it isnt
>>123188248Are you asking for rock bands only or does classical and jazz count
>>123190270No, other bands were, but the labels had money to make on Zappa and beefheart
>>123190270>>123190272progressive rocknoun: progressive rocka style of rock music popular especially in the 1970s and characterized by classical and/or Jazz influences, the use of keyboard instruments, and lengthy compositions.
>>123190334it's avant garde blues rocknot everything with wonky time sigs is prog
>>123190477there is obvious jazz influence among other genres, lengthy compositions, it literally meets all of the qualifications to be considered prog.
thoughts?
>>123190512The fire rises
>>123187706I get taking influence from other artists, but this is literally just Atom Heart Mother with different notes, like a royalty free bootleg of a more popular song. They could have at least admitted it's a loose cover like how The Devil’s Triangle is basically Holst, that would make it less shameless.
>I'm happy to see all 3 voivod fans coming out of the wood work to shit on me. Hopefully one day your posting will work and you will a gain 4th fan.
>>123190497if you can't hear the difference between stuff classified as experimental/avant garde vs prog, you need to listen to more musicsecondly, most prog doesn't have classical/jazz influence so the definition is self-refuting
>>123190563lel, i've listened to much more music than you ever will, it's not about how it sounds, it literally is prog, Univers Zero sounds nothing like Genesis but they are both "prog">most prog doesn't have classical/jazz influencethen it's not prog, it's just experimental rock with long songs
>>123187706Isn't this the same band that someone posted many months ago where the opening for one of their albums was just outright just a blatant KC cover (I don't remember if it was Red or Larks Part 1) - or was that another Japanese band entirely? Why is so much classic Japanese prog just a copy-cat of western prog?
>>123190588>Japanese prog just a copy-cat of western prog?most good Japanese prog is Zeuhl or Avant-Prog
>>123190549>>123190588There are some good cuts in that album thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dea0fvvafV0
>>123190581it sounds nothing like the prog rock of the time, has completely different influences, completely different tonality and completely different aesthetics. this general's autistic desire to categorize any kind of remotely unconventional rock music as "prog" is precisely why this fanbase is stereotyped constantly as insufferably pretentious, as if they own everything
>>123190705>it sounds nothing like the prog rock of the timeneither does Univers Zero, Birdsongs of the Mesozoic, Henry Cow, Soft Machine, Magma, etc.
>>123190782>Univers Zeroone of the few prog bands actually influenced by classical in ways that went beyond superficial surface level elements like piano + longer songs, but like most classically-influenced prog they're still downstream from bartok or stravinsky>Birdsongs of the Mesozoicnever heard, can't comment>Henry Cow, Soft Machine, Magmaall sound a thousand times closer to stuff like king crimson or gentle giant than beefheart due to entirely different improvisational techniques, the presence of tonal centers/functional harmony, and just about all the standard fundamental musical elements that still makes prog rock not sound like total noise to most people on first listen, regardless if they liked or disliked it. the prog rock > RIO > zeuhl pipeline is completely different than the blues and blues rock >collective improv free jazz > beefheart pipeline
>>123191067Beefheart sounds exactly like Yes and Genesis though
>>123187706I'm not sure how to describe this other than the least progressive progressive rock I've ever heard.>>123187738Based.>>123188062>autist is anti-semiteMany such cases kek.>>123188821Yeah this should be way better than it is desu.>>123190334>characterized by classical and/or Jazz influencesSo Marillion isn't prog.>the use of keyboard instrumentsSo Wishbone Ash isn't prog.>lengthy compositionsSo Gentle Giant isn't prog.
>>123191131Right, totally, and Beethoven sounds exactly like Mahler and Shostakovich
>>123190563I recently listened to Tipographica - God Says I Can't Dance. I liked it a lot. RYM calls it "avant-prog". It sounds like jazz fusion to me. How is it prog?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m41k9oft0cc
>>123190549Yeah it surprised me, but I didn’t go see if they acknowledged it, song came up and the imitation is so blatant, it’s like Grendel and supper’s ready >>123190588Hm, dunno
>>123191310>autist is anti-semite>Many such cases kek.you know, now that i think about it i can't remember what he was saying in my dream, i just remember him saying something about the "jews" didn't seem particularly hateful, but didn't seem happy about them either.
>>123191376when all or almost all you listen to is rock and rock-adjacent stuff and then get a taste of something you're not familiar with, there's a weird habit to classify it as "experimental/avant" even if it's something very basic and standard in other styles. yeah, this song just sounds like pretty by-the-books fusion, it gets a bit hectic in the second half but nothing i would consider super out-there. sounds like zappa meets steps ahead. but I guess that's "avant-prog" to people? keep in mind i'm biased since I feel this way about a lot of avant-prog, zeuhl, rio, etc
>>123191310>So Gentle Giant isn't prog.Gentle Giant has some songs that are 9-10min, on In A Glass House almost all songs are over 7 minutes, they also have a few Live songs that go for up to 15 minutes, sure not as long as some songs other prog bands have made, but still probably considered lengthy compared to most rock music.
>>123191535>some songsthe original argument was being "characterized" by these attributes, you can't do that if 95% of your songs don't meet the criteria
>>123191310It's not a very detailed description of prog, but there are no characteristics that every prog band shares (well, except some element of rock, otherwise it's not prog rock).
>>123190257>Still giving us attentionYou're not doing yourself any justice. If I were you, I would quit while you're ahead.
>>123191566characterization =/= obligatory parameter

>>123190257Just makes it sound like they were properly gatekept from normans like you.>>123190290Unironically this, Zappa had some media industry connections back in the day, even if he was often a bit strapped for cash in the 60s and 70s. Man knew how to pull in some favors, and I don't fault him for it.>>123190497>it literally meets all of the qualifications to be considered progFirst of all there needs to be a death camp for people who don't know when to use the word "literally" appropriately, and secondly this isn't even true. A lot of prog is influenced by jazz and is long and whatever, yes, but in the grand scheme of things a lot of prog is still simple, accessible music that distinctly separates it from the avant-garde. Despite time signature changes and long track lengths, they 99% of the time use unambiguous harmony, a fixed form, ignore non-diatonic chord progressions, ignore the weird playing techniques associated with avant-garde like overblowing or multiphonics, and have everyone playing in the same key signature, and none of that characterizes Trout Mask Replica in the slightest.
>>123192385>First of all there needs to be a death camp for people who don't know when to use the word "literally"i used to think this, but the internet literally made me retarded

erase Geordie Greep's vocal and BM gets 10x more tolerable. they sound like a carnival music being sung by an auctioneernever heard a band whose sound that got actively destroyed by its vocalist and this comes from someone who's a huge fan of Smashing Pumpkins.
>>123193482As a Primus fan I love the aesthetics of his vocals, the problem is that his music is soulless
>>123193576I also like some Primus' song, Les' voice is still much more likeable than his.

>>123192856>the setlist alone makes it the absent lovers of this incarnationare you talking about the number of songs or the performance's rating?anyway, theres a few concerts more complete than the one in amsterdamthe zurich one (nov 15th 1973) is the one you should look for if you want more songs (with catfood, and schizoid included) and proper audio recordingtheres 2 more gigs with many songs but only one (april 29th 1974) is properly recorded, the other one (march 19th 1974) comes from a bootleg. the nice thing about the later is that it has guts on my side along with all the non improv songs from S&BB and almost the entirety of Larks (except for easy money)

>>123200322Tarkus was the first prog album I ever litsened anybody else?
>>123200346I can't remember the first prog album I heard but it was probably something by Rush, maybe KC
>>123200346I'll be honest, I was hesitant to listen to ELP because they were all about keyboards and I wanted to listen to bands with guitars.
>>123200346>>123200373Unless you're really old I'm pretty sure most people's prog albums were prog metal of some kind.Strangely I got into prog rock 15-20ish years ago through the intersection of me being really into black metal at the time and being a weeb, which led to me discovering a prog metal band called Sigh and then going down the prog rabbithole until landing on prog rock.
>>123200391>unless you're really old>was into black metal 20 years agoyou're at LEAST pushing 40, you are really old
>>123200413Fuck.
>>123200391interestingI never liked metal and didnt get into prog rock by metal
>>123200346My first prog album was A farewell to Kings
>>123200436I guess I kind of did get into prog by metal, but in a kinda funny way, from Helloween's cover of Hocus Pocus to checking out the original and the rest of the album
>>123200346I've heard Rush since I was a kid, but I didn't know it was progressive. Honestly, I used to hate music and rebelled against others' tastes by listening to shit like The Bulgarian Voices. Fast forward to middle school, and my math teacher started playing Siberian Khatru by Yes, and I was like, "This is my kind of music; I've been yearning for this." I listened to more Yes and discovered King Crimson and ELP; the rest is history.
>>123200391I'm 32 and I distinctly remember getting into prog rock when I was 14 or 15, before prog and extreme metal. I started out with stuff like PF, KC, Rush, some Yes and Zappa and Camel, then some friend introduced me to stuff like Atheist, Edge of Sanity, Cynic, etc. So I dunno If we agree, I guess if you define "really old" as 30+ then we do?
>>1231902573 people is like half the people that post in this general
Grim skunk?
It has its own appeal; different from the live interpretations.Just play it on loud speakers and let it click.
>>123200939its not for everybody
>>123200939On this album, Robert has surrounded himself with a whole new gang of noisemakers, including a zany noisemaker named Jamie Muir who bashes chains, pots and pens, bags of leaves and all sorts of silliness while former Yes GOD drummer Bill Bruford and future Asia mouthpiece John Wetton surround Robert Fripp with big loud ass-kicking whateverness. And they're GOOD!!!! They've tightened and toughened up their little pussy sound, made it kick solid rumpity, and most importantly have decided to concentrate almost completely on the cool instrumental jams that were the highlights of the last few records. For once, they actually sound like they've got a VISION in mind for the band! The only problem is that they still can't write an actual *SONG* that doesn't make you (me) want to cringe and stick your (my) fingers in your (your) ears (vagina). "Exiles" is so bad, it's like... like.... why, it's like ASIA!!! The other two "songs" suffer too, aside from the nice instrumental breaks. But at least Fripp has finally found something he's good at! Hard avant-garde improv jazz rock. THIS is where the Crimson needs to concentrate. They'll have to do it without Jamie Muir though. He abruptly quit during the next tour due to intense spiritual yearnings brought on by that same dumbass Autobiography Of A Yogi book that made Jon Anderson write Tales From Topographic Not Making Any Goddamned Sense At All. When will people finally realize that all religions - even the good ones - are an asshole?
>>123200991where did you copy this from?
>>123200939i once listened to larks everyday for a month, in a desperate attempt to correct my taste (regarding the wetton kc trilogy), it worked. one thing i really ended up appreciating was the production, i have no idea what went wrong but larks just sounds incredible compared to the other two, i probably need to listen to more masters of them
>>123200991 A nine, of course. I really don't see any problems with the actual songs on here. Why is 'Exiles' so bad? A song is bad when it has no melody. This one sure has one - I haven't heard it in at least four or five months, and I can still remember how it goes. It has that cool, romantic mellotron line it's based on, and it's actually emotionally resonant, much unlike most King Crimson output. And 'Easy Money' is also cool, rhythmic, complex, sarcastic, and catchy. Although, of course, the main accent is still on the instrumentals - the riffage on 'Larks' Tongues In Aspic, Part II' is easily the most brutally powerful moment in the entire KC catalog, only rivalled by 'Schizoid Man'.
>>123200939
>>123201066>i once listened to larks everyday for a month,you are tempting me to try this...
>>123201076based
>>123201076Kek, holy fucking based.
>>123201079if you really want to like it, go for it, it WILL work, but like i said, sabb and red are kinda ruined for me
>>123192541Yes, but I've only listened to their first several albums. Is the rest worth checking out?
>>123201076>the title of which was coined by Muir; when asked by Fripp what the music sounded like, Muir responded "why, larks' tongues in aspic ... what else?"
>>123201130is that the prog version of ringo saying "it's been a hard day's night"?
>>123200991The Muir-Yes pipeline is real.
>>123201076>causes TFTO to happen
>>123201144was he responsable for topographic ocean?
>>123197914>>123197951Yeah, PetroDragonic is probably their best album this decade.
>>123201154>In early March 1973, Muir attended Bruford's wedding reception, and had a long conversation with Yes's singer Jon Anderson during which he strongly recommended that Anderson read Paramahansa Yogananda's Autobiography of a Yogi. Anderson recalled: "He was an unbelievable stage performer ... I wanted to know what made him do that, what had influenced him. He said to me, 'Here, read it,' and it started me off on the path of becoming aware that there was even a path ... Jamie was like a messenger for me and came to me at the perfect time in my life ... he changed my life." Anderson's fascination with the book soon led to the creation of the Yes album Tales From Topographic Oceans.
>>123201170Holy shit, bros. Where's that comic artist from the previous general? We need a Muir comic, stat!
>>123199972This is from their microtonal albums. You should listen to Flying Microtonal Banana (2017), K.G. (2021) and L.W. (2021).
>>123201076He also crossed paths with Allan Holdsworth and Mike Giles but nothing came out of that
>>123201351>nothing came out of thatalmost nothinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPn9dcb5cIg
>>123201181it's me, but I'm at the office todayI'll give this one (and the other few I've been asked before) a go tomorrow
For any Renaissance fans, I just discovered that Jim McCarty did On the Frontier with his own band before Renaissance did their version. https://youtu.be/A2uW8L3Sw7k?si=3vqMrbJMN4cWviou
>>123202002do you have a punchline in mind already?
It really runs out of steam after Slippermen
>>123202324not really, feel free to make a suggestionmost prog stories seem to be about hippies and nerds being autistic
>>123201122I've only listened to ocean and I really really really liked it.
>>123202877How about portraying Jamie as some magical wandering sage helping out forlorn proggers on his way. Like Touched By an Angel but it's just a guy who plays wind chimes.
>>123202730You need to make your own version switching the order a bit. I recommend Chamber of 32 doors as a perfect non-ending
>>123202002Holy based. Thank you, anon.
You guys think there will be a 50th anniversary deluxe edition of Lamb?
>>123203861If they cared, there’s so much they could do with it
>>123200346I listened to Pink Floyd and Genesis before I knew they're a prog band (I was in my early teen back then so no genre snobberyI remember my first 3 PF albums were Echoes compilation, The Division Bell (both in cassette) and PulseFor Genesis, it was the self-titled album and 1999 compilation
>>123202730Bloat the album
>>123205544Move aside
>>123205565Not as bad as the Lamb
lads I'm starting to think I can play Frakcturedhonestly the whole thing except the distortion part is playable with standard tuning and the fingering is easier in ST than NST
>>123200346i blasted this piece of shit in high school. it was decent if you can get past the cheese
>>123205966I put on Drowning in the Flood from time to time, great song. I think it's Ross's favorite from the album too, actually I agree with most of his picks
>>123202730The "Soundtracks For The Blind" of Prog (even though Swans is prog actually), truly a masterpiece.
>>123205966I used to blast the shit out of The Mountain, Fauna ain't that bad either
>>123206328Crescendocore post-rock is closer to prog than most "traditional" post-rock
black midi is so good
>>123208605i don't get the big deal, they're okay, not amazing, but not bad either.
>>123208618I just really like the vocals and songwriting and understated virtuosity of every part of it all
>>123188143Unfortunately the only person that could bring them back from the dead is also dead.
>>123195234tarkussy
alan parsons project and electric light orchestra I prefer to topographic oceans and larks tongues in aspic stuff
>>123210185Larks' Tongues In Aspic is my favorite ELO album
>>123200346Lmao literally me it was my first prog album, I listened it in 2020 thanks to the pandemic>Alsocurrently listening Alphataurus god I love it
https://youtu.be/Xcj-SVs31cQGonna drop Sakanaction here
>>123200346The Raven That Refused to Sing hehe
Rush bros?>>38595638
>>123200497Im 31 and basically same here
>>123202002Out of curiosity, is your work somehow art-related?Do you listen to /prog/ at work?
>>123197066>>123198374He broke his elbow two decades ago and still drummed live with a cast.
>>123212140>is your work somehow art-related?no, it's just a hobbyI work in the energy business>Do you listen to /prog/ at work?when I have the time, yes, but I'm usually at meetings when I'm in the workplace
>>123211424what was it
>>123213555someone sharing Mount Eerie albums through Zippyshare, and someone asking for one of his other albums, not sure what Rush has to do with this.
>>123210812are there other prog covers featuring animal/machine hybrids
>>123214338thats an odd question
>>123214401when you see three covers with a same theme (released in roughly the same period to boot) you can't help but wonder
Why are there so little prog with female vocals? Curved Air, Renaissance, Yes...
>>123214904Don't forget about Rush
>>123214338
>>123214904FRUMPY Babe Ruth
Thoughts?
>>123214904Magma is a big one
>>123215780Oh yeah and I forgot Art Bears and Henry Cow for Dagmar Krause
>>123215762I’ve recently been getting into Focus. The first four albums are all kino. I just picked up Focus 3 on vinylGreat guitarist too
>>123215810Don't forget about Gilli Smyth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M69KyR-uf84 and Dorothy Moskowitz from The United States of America https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewbCMIV_b_E

>>123186509isn't black midi post-punk?
>>123219196>foxtrot this low
>>123218347...is a trust fund band.
>>123219207Yeah, you're right, swap it with Wind and wuthering
>>123219207It's better than WW, Invisible Touch and kinda tied w trespass but every album listed above it is better
new comic, this one took me longer than I expected, sorry about it
>>123220968Do every moment of his life please
>>123220968great work, really. fuck yeah.
>>123220968god damn this is a good styleyou win /prog/ today

>>123221004>>123221083>>123221114>>123221281thank you, guysmy hand hurts, but I'll try to get on other stories asap
I am not crazy! I know he sabotaged my songs! I knew it was Blood on the Rooftops. One after the fucking mouse song. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just – I just couldn't prove it. He – he covered his tracks, he got that idiot at the studio to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. That live album! Are you telling me that my parts just happened to be quieter? No! He orchestrated it! Tony! He defecated in my guitar case! And I put up with him! And I shouldn't have. He took me into his own band! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since he was 20, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands off of the keyboards when I'm playing! But not our Tony! Couldn't be precious Tony! Stealing them blind! And he gets to be a rock star!? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance! And you – you have to stop him! You-
>>123221634Make sure to do plenty of stretches and calisthenics for your wrist and fingers anon, don't hurt yourself
>>123220968you are very talented anon, but one thing, for some reason i can see the people youve drawn and think they look alike to their real characters except for Fripp, also, i highly doubt he ever makes gestures as clear as you show, hes too autistic for that
>>123203861I care so fucking much about this album I really wish there would be something for the 50th anniversary.>>123220968Excellent fucking fripp faces, just like the previous comic
>>123204494>>123222919There are so many options for bonus material, especially the headley grange rehearsals. This mix alone compiles an entire CD's worth, so imagine what else is in the vaults.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wm9GsZC1DPA

>>123222917thanks for the feedbackI tried going for something more cartoonish, but it does need more work
>>123226671bruh this is pro level, in an unkiked world you'd get good money for this
>>123227148I don't know what's stopping (You) from giving him money but I guess we'll have to wait for the world to unkike for that
>>123203861Steve is at least performing part of it on his solo tour this year
