>>123662480I can't believe Peter predicted modern gaming
>>123662334I see these guys for the last few years getting hyped as "zeuhl metal" in my usual avant-prog and zeuhl circles but for the life of me I cannot figure out how hell their previous album or this album is remotely zeuhl.It just sounds like progressive metal/jazz fusion with a lot of brazilian and latino music influence.I feel like I'm missing out on something because some of my friends call them their favourite modern zeuhl group and I'm just scratching my head wondering how it's zeuhl.
But anyways speaking of zeuhl metal, Oxxo Xoox dropped an album last weekhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhvMZsDKfvE
>>123664337>It just sounds like progressive metal/jazz fusion with a lot of brazilian and latino music influence.That's because it is. But when you listen to more zeuhl than metal or jazz, that becomes your only reference point.
is 'zheul' the new 'blackened'
>>123663232Its waters will a bowl haircut
>>123664848zeuhl's trendy in avantgarde metal circles ever since magma started playing at hellfest in the mid-2010s
even though Yes is kind of the most entry-level prog band, they'll always remain one of my favorite bands of the genreit's amazing how uplifting and gorgeous their music is, listening to a full album is almost like a religious experience to me
>>123665351prog is essentially religion for autistic people
>>123664544Doesn't help that even the band describes their music as zeuhl too. I'm just fucking confused. My friends call it zeuhl. Reviews on progarchives and RYM call it zeuhl. But for the life of me I can't figure out what the hell is remotely zeuhl about it.It's not sung in Kobaian, but sung in Portugeuse That isn't a dealbraeker since Eskaton sing in French and Gonin-ish sing in Japanese but at least the music resembles zeuhl. But nothing about this band's music screams zeuhl in a way that can't more accurately just be described as prog metal and jazz fusion instead.I feel like I'm having a stroke because all modern/newer zeuhl discussion in the 2020s revolves around this band that sounds nothing like zeuhl but I guess because the frontman wears a Magma shirt and plays vaguely dissonant and jazzy prog metal it's zeuhl now
>finally find a prog girl>looks like she's starting to see someone

>>123666942isn't this basically what "Symphonic Prog" is?i recommend Renaissance
why is Fripp so based?
>>123667416Based on what?
>>123667424based on being an amazing guitarist, and band leader.
Both punk/new wave and disco, those musical explosions of the mid-1970s that so many felt to be diametrically opposed to each other, Fripp felt as a breath of fresh air. Both seemed to him to be music of the people, to return music to the people, throwing the dinosaurs of the music industry off track, however temporarily. The raw energy of punk had been prefigured by the aggressive intellectual heavy metal sound of King Crimson III - and even earlier by the intense negative energy and profound frustration that bursts through King Crimson I songs like "21st Century Schizoid Man." Fripp said, "When I heard punk I thought, I've been waiting six years for this." As for disco, Fripp called it "a political movement that votes with its feet. It started out as the expression of two disadvantaged communities - the gays and the blacks." As a vital form of social expression, Fripp viewed disco as "nihilistic, but passively nihilistic," a movement that simply ignored the traditional social framework outside its boundaries.
Robert Fripp believes that one can learn just as much by listening to music one dislikes as by listening to music one likes - in other words, that there can be an educational purpose served by music beyond that of satisfying mere subjective taste. "I go and see people who I don't like because I get something from it which is worth far more than having been entertained." Rock writer Michael Watts characterizes this view as "puritanical"; puritanical or not, it is consistent with Fripp's view that the quality of attention one brings to the experience of music is more decisive than the quality of the musical sounds in themselves. Not the sounds, but the listening.
>>123667445yes, very based, i truly aspire to be like him
>>123667445The music he was listening to and making in the late 70s/early 80s was more progressive than most of the "progressive" artists of his time that were still around.
>>123667445>>123667458The greatest human being who ever walked upon this earth.
King Crimson is like a family where Fripp is the "Daddy" overseeing everything. The other band members are like his kids, running wild with their creative ideas and having a blast. But in the end, it's Daddy who pulls all their fun together and decides what makes it onto the albums, shaping it into something special.

>>123667357No, they do all the work while mister frontman takes all the credit, all while shitting out lame wanna-beatnik hipster poetry. Fatty Van Vliet can go suck Tom waits ass

>>123667737this is the kind of shit you would see on reddit, that's not even true, he wasn't "wannabe hipster" if you watch interviews with him, he was genuinely crazy.
>>123667737people like you are the worst, just like the Fripp hate poster, you are more concerned with the people and personalities then the actual music, truly mindless, you would fit in a lot better with the Kpop general.

>>123667987you are genuinely retarded, you do realize most of the "ball sucking" posts are mostly non-serious right?
>>123668034so are the demeaning posts, idiot
idk if this is prog guys
>>123667798No he played a part just like his buddy Frank >>123667861Beefheart puts himself before the music, that’s on him. Release an instrumental version of Trouts mask and all will be fine.
>>123666942Ekseption is known for doing flat-out rock versions of classical pieces (They do a version of Beethoven's 5th Symphony simply called The 5th).
>>123668063really? because they are really bad at conveying that.
>>123667901Yeah, mister frontman ‘composed’ the song because he hummed something to the actual musician doing all the arrangements
Suggon
When Beefheart learned of the opportunity to make an album totally without restrictions, he sat down at the piano and in eight and a half hours wrote all twenty-eight songs included on Trout Mask. When I asked him jokingly why it took that long, he replied, ‘Well, I’d never played the piano before and I had to figure out the fingering.’ With a stack of cassettes going full time, Don banged out Frownland, Dachau Blues, Veteran’s Day Poppy, and all of the others complete with words. When he is creating, this is exactly how Don works – fast and furious.The trouble is that once the compositions are down it takes him a long time to teach them to his musicians. In this case it took almost a year of rehearsal.
>>123661776Overrated
>>123668085he wrote them on piano and that's how most bands work actually, it's just that Beefheart was original and more strict, also Beefheart never "took all the credit" retard.
>According to [Peter] Gabriel, Radiohead ceased communication after he sent them his version of "Street Spirit".[14] Gabriel said his rendition was "pretty extreme" and had since heard that Radiohead did not like it.[12]Why is Thom like this?
>>123668117Occasionally, as Don would write, he would say, “this is a bass part,” or “this is Bill’s part.” He often complained that he had to “write those fucking blues parts” for Bill Harkleroad. Actually, I find little on Trout Mask that sounds like a “blues part.” I find an overall abstract relationship to blues in much of the music, due to Don’s influences in youth, but I also find bits of jazz influence, and even classical influences all thrown together.
>>123668173is his version better than the original
>>123668084are you autistic?
how about we all, move on from arguing about the artists, and personalities behind the music, they literally do not matter, who cares about these people? it's the recordings that are great, anyone could come up with anything, to think that "only this person could come up with this piece of music" is preposterous, all ideas come from the divine, the artists understand this, nothing is truly original.
>>123668192Not him but yes, we're in /prog/
>>123668182Bear in mind, however, that Van Vliet would also listen to a player occasionally and give a critical assessment of how he was playing a particular part, but this often had more to do with nuance than the actual notes. If he didn’t like the way the part sounded on guitar, he would work with the player, sometimes re-writing and/or simplifying the part, and then I would generally ask the player to show me the new part so I could write it down. Sometimes, Don would spend hours just working with someone on nuance and feel, just to get the part working correctly. Most of the time, the guitars weren’t plugged in, so the sound he would “pull out of the players” would be strictly technique, never gimmicks or electronics. This was his area of strength: feel, nuance, dynamics, and instinctual characteristics, the same thing one hears in his extraordinary voice.
>>123662606Peter Gabriel
>>123668205>all ideas come from the divine, the artists understand thisI dont think they do since most artists have big egos
>>123668117>Well, I’d never played the piano before and I had to figure out the fingeringComplete narcissist cunt… imagine believing some guy who tells you what a Genius he is
>>123662606well duh, they only have one album (not counting live albums)
>>123668145No, drumbo did the actual arranging work >>123668173
>>123668173Eh, that cover album sucked. Messed up Heroes and My body is a cage, don’t know/care what the other songs are
>>123668232usually that's not real though, they are playing a character, and the people that are serious, have egos because they think they have "secret knowledge" they acquired from their mystic teachings, this is the problem with this specific sect of gnosticism, which is rampant in the music industry,
>>123668267>usually that's not real though, they are playing a characterim not so sure about that>which is rampant in the music industry,>industry,>,go on
>>123668267If mystic teachings don’t humble you then there’s definitely something wrong with you
>>123668186ok its not
>>123668256Wow that heroes is terrible.
>>123668256How DARE you slander My Body Is a Cage
>>123668438Hey it’s a great (arcade fire) song. To be honest I don’t really remember Pete’s version, but I re-heard his Heroes lately and if it’s anything close to it, it’s worse than I remember
>>123668298it is
>>123668571NTA but come on man. Street Spirit is an alt rock classic. Stop larping and saying some shitty cover done by a man who hasn't been in his prime in at least 40 years is better.
>>123668224He's been on a long downhill ride ever since Melt
>>123668571>>123668438Yeah no I’ve just relistened and it’s horrible, just emo Peter over sad piano, no comprehension of originals
>/prog/ moving on from hating Fripp to PetePhilbros we won.
>>123668707Hating Phil is mainstreamAlso the BROOF has spokenhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3184hLi6I0k>After everything he’s been through, with health struggles and surviving a level of public attention usually reserved for Presidents and Prime Ministers, Phil remains a very special entertainer, and I expect a lot of folks are out there enjoying what may be the final Genesis tour. Knock ‘em dead, Phil.

>>123665351I found them off-putting at first (mainly due to Jon's vocals) but repeatingly subjecting myself to CTTE did the trickMy favorite song is Tempus Fugit though, that bassline is irresistble

>>123670243of course, love em
>>123670243is that Third Eye Blind?
>>123665542the way I see it, zeuhl uses ostinati, repetitive patterns, syncopation, rhythmic figures, octatonic scales, chromaticism, and other stuff that goes beyond surface-level gibberish choirs and quirkiness.Papangu isn't really shooting for the MDK or 1001 Centigrades kind of zeuhl, more like in the Theusz Hamtaahk ballpark. if you think a band needs to sound like Koenjihyakkei to be zeuhl you're missing out on the bigger picture.

reminder that there are things you don't know about the people Fripp "let go" horrible things, they were bad people, i can't say anymore, but trust me.

>>123670580>Fripp ripped off Bartokthis one is extremely disingenuous, ELP literally has an album of butchering classical pieces.
>>123670401I think he was a jerk towards his bandmates and resent him for itthere are stories of him berating them for thinking differently, and cutting out any ideas he claimed weren't worth getting intostill love the band though
>>123670580wasn't there a schizo blog by a former guitar circle alumnus full of ramblings about fripp, fripp haters here don't have anything on that one
>>123667445Whether by Providence or by an innate sense of tastefulness, Robert Fripp's projects never descended to the same levels of self-impressed pompousness that characterized so much of the Anglo-prog he inspired. Even the failures seem like well-meaning failures, and the successes are often delightful.
>>123670625>there are stories of him berating them for thinking differently, and cutting out any ideas he claimed weren't worth getting into>Regarding his relationship with Robert Fripp, Muir wrote "Fripp was open and believed very much in getting disparate musical elements together ... he seemed to me to be a very good band leader. I think I was a wee bit too much for him, simply because I was so involved in improvisation. He was very much concerned with logic and function, he always worked his solos out before playing them ... For a person like him it was a very admirable creative decision to actually work with somebody like me."[2] Muir also recalled: "I always remember I had an urge to get Robert to let his hair down because he was very controlled in the way he played ... I really tried and tried to provoke him."[4] In summing up his experience with the band, Muir stated "King Crimson was the ideal for me ... I was extremely pleased and I felt completely at home with the Crimson."[4]
>>123670625>I think he was a jerk towards his bandmates and resent him for itthis one i don't deny, but i also think he's pretty autistic and comes off as more rude then he actually is.>cutting out any ideas he claimed weren't worth gettingmaybe they were really bad ideas? it's hard to judge someone for this without knowing the specific ideas.
>>123666942The Enid, goes harder on the neo-prog stuff after 1980 but pretty solid for what it's worth. First two albums got remade in the 80s because they didn't have the rights to the masters at the time, so some copies get mixed up on slsk with the remakes because a lot of reissues didn't bother to notify it was not the original.
this is Magma's best studio album
>>123670713How is the neo-prog stuff, I'm actually interested in good neo-prog
https://youtu.be/CVb2tnFN5AA?si=FHwDSDeEAWIk0V08What is there left to create after Fripp? Who is worthy of the same reverence? How can such transcendence be achieved by a mere human?>But Genesis is better.FRIPP.>But Yes is better.FRIPP.>But Rush is better.FRIPP.>But it depends on your musical taste and personal preference.People who don't appreciate "FRIPP" cannot grasp his artistry with their limited minds. Such innovation can only be understood by the "Enlightened Listener," not the masses. Bow down, now, commoner. Drop all your excuses and kneel, admit that "Fripp" is the greatest.Fripp.FRIPP.F.
>>123670776as the Fripp Hater, i never thought about it like that, you've changed my mind.
do people actually say this?>But Genesis is better.lel>But Yes is better.topkek>But Rush is better.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>123670773Very hit or miss, although I am biased because I was really into the band a decade ago but they went through another phase recently where they had no fucking idea what they were doing, in a similar fashion to what happened to them in the 90s. For the neo-prog stuff, listen to Something Wicked This Way Comes or The Seed and The Sower (listed under "Godfrey and Stewart"). They had a short period in the 90s where they went kind of trance prog but it's very goofy and not great, although I have a soft spot for it. It is also of note the neo-prog stuff was made with a significantly smaller lineup, whereas the first four albums had at the most, 7 or 8 people playing shit. Very intricate stuff.
But seriously though, Rush is fucking cringe
>>123670776lol>>123670835"cringe" is a little but harsh, I would say mediocre

We should create a new /prog/ chart including the most essential prog albums, we should venerate the spirt of the mighty CLT.
Fripp is known as an avid reader with an extensive personal library containing volumes on religion and philosophy, politics, psychological theory, and economics. In the articles he wrote for Musician, Player, and Listener magazine in the early 1980s, he quoted freely from Plato, Shakespeare, Jacques Ellul, E.F. Schumacher, T.S. Elliot, Stafford Beer, Proudhon, and other writers. As the "world's most rational rock star" has said, "Me and a book is a party. Me and a book and a cup of coffee is an orgy."

>>123673454he is so WISE

>>123672239that's a great album, but no, if you posted Lost Chord or Threshold of a Dream, maybe.
Gonna start FrippmaxxingI'll start off small thoughmaybe just a glass of juice and a thumb through "Mailed Fist" by John Foley
"Larks' Tongues in Aspic," with its complex time signatures and shifting motifs, represents an evolution that mirrors the search for liberation from the confines of the material realm. The climactic interplay of sound reflects a struggle and a desire to break free from the chaos of worldly existence, supporting the idea of transcending a flawed reality. Overall, these works illustrate Fripp's nuanced engagement with themes of gloom and transcendence, inviting listeners to confront the darkness around them while seeking higher truths.
>>123673797what higher truth did you find /prog/?
>>123673816i found when subdividing time signatures instead of using the usual method of 3s and 2s i can use Skibidi and Toilet instead to count it out since it takes up the same syllables and that was a huge truth that opened up the sky for meTry it for yourself Frame by Frame main riff: Toilet Toilet Skibidi Toilet Toilet SkibidiLarks pt.1: Skibidi Skibidi Toilet Toilet

giving caravan a spin, downloaded a bunch of prog bands that i never quite got round to listening toi'm going to listen to "For Girls Who Grow Plump in the Night"
>>123673797>illustrate Fripp's nuanced engagement with themes of gloom and transcendenceNo, it illustrates how great Muir, Bruford and Cross are at making great music in spite of an autistic napoleon complexed guitarist.
>>123674021love that album, especially The Dog and Surprise, Surprise
>>123674057a fellow fripp truthergodspeed, good friend
>>123673816"Book of Saturday" by King Crimson touches on themes that resonate with Gnostic ideas, reflecting a struggle between the deceptive nature of reality and a yearning for deeper truth. Lines like "If I only could deceive you" suggest a conflict rooted in the awareness of falsehoods in relationships, hinting at the illusionary aspects of the material world. The metaphor of “my wheels never touch the road” evokes a feeling of being stuck or disconnected, which aligns with a Gnostic sense of entrapment in a flawed reality.The imagery of laying “cards upon the table” implies an attempt to reveal hidden truths amid the chaos of life, while reminiscences indicate a longing for a more profound connection that remains just out of reach. This combines with elements of nostalgia and fleeting joy, suggesting that even while navigating despair, one can find moments of beauty. The reference to life as “a book of bluesy Saturdays” captures the bittersweet essence of existence, blending both sorrow and joy in the search for meaning within a complex and often contradictory world.
>>123673816How to evaluate Robert Fripp? Undeniable that Larks Tongues In Aspic is a big dirty orgasm in musical form. I can truly understand his reputation among the transgendered and homosexual. It is a kind of ravishing physiological pleasure with a transcendental quality that bears no small resemblance to a type of modern political control, like a CIA operative giving someone acid and showing them sissy hypnosis. One grasps Fripp's love for Wagner in the context of the fascist aestheticization of politics, as described by Susan Sontag: "Like Nietzsche and Wagner, Fripp regarded leadership as sexual mastery of the 'feminine' masses, as rape." Larks leaves you physically exhausted and creates profound impressions upon the libido. For example I recently listened to it for the first time in a few years and due to a deluge of circumstances during the period I am now attracted to fat women.

>fripp hater keeps replying to himselfits honestly astonishing the effort these squizos put into their deluded campaigns
In a recent series of interviews, legendary guitarist Robert Fripp, known for his work with King Crimson, found himself at the center of intense backlash after making statements that many have labeled antisemitic and anti-trans. Fripp stirred up outrage when he stated, “I think the Jewish question is one that needs to be revisited,” alongside his comments questioning the validity of transgender identities, saying, “In my view, biology cannot be denied.” Music fans were stunned as these remarks circulated on social media, igniting debates across fan forums and platforms like Twitter. Critics argue that his words perpetuate harmful stereotypes and neglect the struggles faced by marginalized communities. Supporters, however, contend that his artistic genius can be separated from his personal views. As the fallout continues, many are calling for more awareness and responsibility from public figures, urging everyone to reflect on the power of words in today’s social climate. What do you think? Can we separate the art from the artist, or is it time for a deeper conversation about accountability in the music industry? Let us know your thoughts!
