liberal king crimson be like "in the WOKE of poseidon"!!!!
Post your favorite anime girl and your favorite prog band/s>tie between Crimson and Floyd
>>123766387>>123766361it's a bit embarrassingly similar because the mapping of the album is so similar, but Cadence and Cascade is a worthy counterpart to Talk to the wind, Cat Food is great, there's no moonchild (but devil's triangle tho), and kept for last because it's fucking awesome, Pictures of a City.once again, italian proggers had it right, because more than one of them played covers of Pictures
>>123766561Van Der Graaf Generator and Gentle Giant
>>123766571I agree with most of this except I think Cadence and Cascade is drastically inferior to I Talk to the Wind. Still a decent song though
>>123766473>>123766579Van der Graaf Generator is a trust fund band.
>>123767262Trust der Fund Generator

let's talk about Hatfield and the North
>>123769063not a zoomer, but keep projecting
>>123769192>projectingyou don't even know what that means, what am i projecting exactly? being a zoomer? why would i do that if i was a zoomer? please tell me, i would love to know you're retarded justification for that.
>>123769201you're projecting your apparent blind hatred of zoomers on anyone who disagrees with you. most people will agree with me that ITWOP is not their best album, that's exactly not a "zoomer" take
>>123769238>you're projecting your apparent blind hatred of zoomers on anyone who disagrees with youyeah that's not what that means>that's exactly not a "zoomer" takeyes it is
when you realize In The Wake of Poseidon is great, that is one of the greatest feelings in listening to prog, and one could say that's when you TRULY realize how superior King Crimson was to all the other prog bands. But many people who experience this moment of itwop clicking enter a phase where they insist that it's even better than Court of the Crimson King. you eventually come down from the high and realize 'yeah ok it's really great but Court is the better album between them, of course' and the sooner you come to your senses the less everyone is gonna bully you for being wrong
>>123769250nope, there is another phase after that, where you come back to ITWOP and realize it really was their best album.
>>123769246okay, you're functionally retarded. good to know. is english your second language by any chance?
>>123769259it sounds to me like you just have a hard time making up your mind
>>123769265you have no idea what you are talking about, you are an actual retard, you don't even know what i'm REALLY talking about.
>>123769265this poster, is the exact reason why these threads are awful now, just shut the fuck up, you really suck holy shit.

>>123768375Sometimes pussyfooting
>>123757666i asked this because on anon said in a previous thread that spotify and apple music were shit for lossless musicand since i have a ton of "downloaded" lossless music from apple music i was wondering if there was an difference between the FLAC music i have from soulseek or rutracker and the ALAC music i "have" from apple music

>>123771197no it isn't, fuck off
>>123771303Oh sure, an album that is rarely mentioned on this general, and somehow I'm lumped in with all the rest. Get fucked, faggot.>>123771779You people are my punching bag. I will continue to abuse.
>>123766561Can I post my favorite anime boy instead
>>123771941it doesn't matter how often it's mentionedif people don't engage with your post, just shut up instead, you doubled down and freaked out about it. that's why you're an autistic sperg>You people are my punching bag. I will continue to abuse.cope, retard
>>123771963sure, nothing says prog like lgbtqia+ rights
Listening to this album is like peering for half an hour or so through a window into a universe that has fully comprehended the absence of God. There's no instant of music on the LP that isnt pregnant with existential fear, and the program of the music plays like a series of responses to this fear ultimately ending on a note of of apprehensive calmness (which is incidentally the first semi-coherent lyrical content presented to the listener). It's one of the most subtly constructed and deeply affecting philosophical and poetic statements in the history of rock music.It's fine if the musical content isn't your thing, since it doesn't exactly make many concessions to popular aesthetics, but acting like it isn't an extremely significant album is plain and simple ignorance.
We need to get rid of Magma. They've infected everything with their brand of latent reactionary nazism. This general is being held back from evolving further due to this.
>>123771997Point and laugh at the retard.
>>123771969I really don't give a fuck faggot.
>>123771997I ache for an edition of /prog/ devoid of KC and Magma poststhe thread is so much better whenever other bands are being discussed
>>123772024you clearly do, bitch boy
>>123772026>I ache for an edition of /prog/ devoid of KC and Magma postsMagma posters get a pass because most haven't even listened to their back catalog.
>>123772040I care about discussing the album in question. If you aren't going to do that, then fuck off retard.
>>123772026>discussedthere is no music discussion on /mu/what you call discussion is:>gossip about the band members>dumb memes>talking about cover art>"I like this album" vs "this album mogs that one">"is this prog?" for shit that's clearly not progdon't kid yourself, we're only here to waste eachother's time
progressive rock is a kind of metal. death centipedes already existed.
>>123772059>gossip about the band members>dumb memes>"I like this album" vs "this album mogs that one"Three of the five points you made are entirely restricted to King Crimson and Fripp fag posters.
>>123772080>>123772109no need to tell me twice, buddy

BREAKING: ROBERT FRIPP FARTED
I wish they had continued the Projekcts, they were such an interesting concept and still some of the most refreshing prog music
I wish early maiden with Di Anello continued being a mix of punk and metal and prog, instead of turning gay and lame like 99% of metal

The Soft Machine is such an interesting bandespecially considering their namefunny how they went from being more Soft (the early experimental psychedelic years) to more Machine (their later jazz records, with a colder and more intrincate sound)their album which seems to balance the most both their Soft and Machine sides - the daring psych rock and the virtuoso jazz fusion - is their masterpiece, Third

prog for that emotional phantom pain of old flames?
>>12377475870s prog musicians who went pop in the 80s usually had a lot of personal debt and drug habits and ex-wives to take care of. These guys lived it up when times were good and then suddenly found themselves at the turn of the 80s with an economic recession and the music industry in dire straits and prog fallen out of fashion.

ok, fine, they aren't really "awful" but if i wanted to listen to Genesis i'd listen to Genesis, and i'd have better cover art.
>>123766561Camel
>>123775132nah they aight
>>123766561Gentle Giant and Magma.
god, i fucking LOVE Camel, amazing band.
>>123769083Mogs Yes and Genesis and also the other Canterbury bands.

>>123775181First album
>>123769419decent album but The Sleeper is one of their all time best imo
what's the biggest fall from grace a prog band ever had?in terms of making a terrible (or several) album after a great oneI'd argue for Yes's Tormatomind you, this was made in 1978, when prog bands still hadn't all turned to shit and tried going pop
>its not on youtube>its not on spotifysometimes being a proghead its hard
Camel vs Hatfield And The North vs Caravan
>>123775407it is on Rutracker however
>>123775312The obvious winner has to be ELP, they were possibly the biggest touring band ever at one point… and now most in this thread probably didn’t even think to name them
>>123775407https://mega.nz/folder/OJs32LaC#pUWq9aMo9PgwOxBLO39TTQ6/8 of those songs are on youtube btw
>>123775407A proghhead in 2024 who doesn’t even have an mp3 somewhere on storage is but a fool
>>123775466Yes thats what I did, theres a playlist that has a bunch of the songs
>>123775312Gentle Giant, if they'd disbanded after Interview, they would have had a nearly flawless discography, but then they did The Missing Piece
Thoughts on Zerfas?
>>123768164holy based
>>123766561U.K.
>>123775132What happens when you run out of Genesis though?
>>123775407soulseek is a progger’s best friend
>>123775783You listen to live and demos
>>123775312Tormato is way better than Love Beach.
>>123776312but Love Beach came way after ELP had already peakedit's not about how bad an album they may have made, it's about the quick decay from great to bad
>>123775461When did they fall off? Love Beach is the easy answer but you could argue the long break following BSS only to come back with the double attack of Works Vol. 1 (massive ego trip) and Vol. 2 (mediocre outtakes comp) really destroyed their momentum, though some less forgiving prog fans might say they went off the rails after Tarkus or even the debut.
>>123776422Love Beach is kino because of how blatant the sellout is.
works vol 1 has some of their best tracks though....
>>123776441The cover is what really sells it. They didn't try to trick fans with a real proggy cover, instead they went full Bee Gees.
>>123776473works its a mixed bag
>>123776497>emerson's organ
>>123776473Sure it does but the "each member gets his own side" concept is really indulgent and inconsistent in execution. No one cares about Keith's piano concerto or whatever.
what prog album do you think is absolutely mindblowing?not just music that is incredibly high quality, but rather, something that just left you wondering "how the fuck did they come up with this??"
>>123776603Faust

>>123776603more fusion oriented but Allan Holdsworth albums generally just have bizarre shit going on all the timehe was a true autist
>>123776603https://youtu.be/ukgraQ-xkp4?si=ggApndyO-Q8UdhQZWhen I recall the day that I listened to In The Court Of The Crimson King, it sends chills down my spine. Just the beginning of 21st Century Schizoid Man itself aroused my cock up to 90* perpendicular, I tore my clothes off and ran naked to the streets shouting "JUST FUCKING RAPE ME ALREADY GOD". This is what listening to King Crimson for the first time did to me. Fripp was not just making ordinary music for ordinary people, he was sound-raping his listeners and fucking their brains out until they attained nirvana or musical pleasure.There will be never another "GOD" like """F R I P P""".
>>123776730this but ironically
>>123776603Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh
>>123776730fripp didn't write that album.
>>123776784no wonder it sucked
>>123776603not an album but listening to Epitaph for the first time when I was like 15, unfortunately I got to the rest of the album at a less impressionable age
>>123776497I would get it if the entire album was simple yatch rock songs about lovin you in the love beach or whatever. But then they drop a 20 minute yatch prog rock fusion epic?? I just wonder: who the fuck is this for? Genuinely baffling album
