I want to sexually abuse myself in his light. I want to amputate my body if it meant that Fripp was given energy, I want to partake in blood rituals of the Necronomicon if it meant that Fripp would be rejuvenated. I would charge at any army, even a horde of violent savages if Fripp gave me the command. His instructions are my orders. His sadness is my depression. His pain is my agony. He is everything. Fripp is everything and nothing else matters.

Between Jannick, Paganotti and Bussonnet, who was Magma's best bassist? They're all incredible in their own ways but I feel like Jannick overshadows the other two in online discussions while Bussonet's really underrated considering he's the bassist who's been with Magma the longest

That was me. I don't know, I find Gong almost indescribable. It's like hard bop meets psychedelia. Something about Daevid Allen's vocals is also pretty interesting. Master Builder is my favorite, but when I was younger and first heard it, I was terrified.

Stevie Wonder and progressive soul in general is based, but this is progressive ROCK general. go make your own thread.

But I will say there are some Stevie Wonder tracks that really do sound like prog rock at times, particularly softer stuff like a Camel or Hawkwind ballad

And I think Vander's daughter's one of their vocalists too.

>>123919171
If ELP doesn't experiment at all, what other bands from that era did? ELP's first couple albums were inspired heavily by cut tracks from In the Court of the Crimson King, but went in a very different direction from that band. Tarkus was quite experimental for 1971, to the point where ELP earned a reputation for being self-indulgent and "masturbatory" in their exploration of styles. Hell, the first song after the Tarkus suite in the album is some kind of ragtime, not my style for sure, but they were trying some new, eclectic things. I can't vouch for all their work, but Trilogy and Tarkus are some landmark albums in Prog history.

Most new attempts at recapturing the style of 70s prog fail miserably. Steven Wilson's Luminol is one of the only contemporary songs to hit that prog rock sweet spot for me. (And I honestly think its because he convinced Alan Parsons to be his audio engineer for this album)

>Emerson, Lake & Palmer
7.5/10, Great songs nothing amazing though, pretty good debut.
>Tarkus
6/10, The title track of "Tarkus" is a standout, easily one of the best pieces in the progressive rock genre, blending intricate musicianship with compelling themes. Unfortunately, the rest of the album doesn't quite maintain that level of quality, the rest of the album ranges from just "pretty good" to "wow, this is garbage"
>Pictures at an Exhibition
8/10, fantastic take on classical music, with ELP's bold reinterpretations (AKA Butchering) adding a unique and exhilarating flair. The way they transform these classic pieces into something fresh and exciting is a true marvel, making this album a thrilling listen. Its energetic arrangements and virtuosic performance
>Trilogy
7.5/10, Trilogy showcases ELP's signature blend of complex compositions and rich melodies, delivering a strong overall experience. While some tracks shine with impressive musicality and innovation, others feel a bit more conventional. Overall, the album strikes a fine balance between high-energy rock and symphonic elegance
>Brain Salad Surgery
9/10, Brain Salad Surgery is a remarkable album that really showcases ELP's creativity and musicianship. The blend of rock and orchestral elements creates a unique sound that's both ambitious and engaging. With standout tracks and a few bold experiments, it captures the band's essence beautifully, their best album by far.
>Works Vol. 1 & 2
4.5/10, A mixed bag with some standout tracks, but overall it's more mediocre than memorable.
>Love Beach
4/10, attempts a more commercial sound but fails to resonate.

>Kobaïa
8.5/10, Kobaïa is Magma's groundbreaking debut, introducing their unique Zeuhl sound with intricate rhythms and ethereal vocals. While its experimental nature may be polarizingthe band's remarkable musicianship and vision.
>2 (AKA 1001° Centigrades)
8/10, released in 1971, amplifies the band's Zeuhl sound with intricate rhythms and a fusion of jazz, rock, and choral elements.
>Mëkanïk Dëstruktïẁ Kömmandöh
10/10, Mëkanïk Dëstruktïẁ Kömmandöh by Magma is a mesmerizing masterpiece that exemplifies the band's unique fusion of progressive rock, classical and jazz, elevating the concept of music to an art form. With its intricate rhythms, powerful vocals, and immersive soundscapes, the album transports listeners into a cosmic journey through the enigmatic language of Zeuhl. it's not not only sonically challenging but also emotionally, and spiritually profound, showcasing the band's virtuosity and vision. This ambitious work deserves a 10/10 for its innovative approach and lasting influence on the progressive music landscape.
>Ẁurdah Ïtah
7.5/10, Released in 1974 as the soundtrack for Tristan et Iseult, this album explores Magma's distinct Zeuhl sound. It’s filled with intricate rhythms and haunting vocals while capturing the essence of the Theusz Hamtaahk Trilogy.
>Köhntarkösz
9/10, stands as a remarkable entry in Magma's catalog, rich with complex rhythms and powerful vocals. As part of the Köhntarkösz cycle, the album showcases the band's signature blend of complex rhythms, powerful vocals, and an avant-garde approach that captivates listeners.
>Live/Hhaï
10/10, is an extraordinary testament to Magma's live prowess and creativity, The standout track "Hhaï" is an unforgettable track that takes you on a mesmerizing spiritual journey. The energy and creativity Magma brings to the stage are palpable, and the rich rhythmic layers and emotional intensity make this one of their all-time great releases. It absolutely deserves a perfect 10/10.

also bro they were the new prog, this is 70 right after Crimson, Yes and Genesis haven’t really took off yet… and they keep trying things, switching things up.
I’m no fan of the saloon style, and don’t really think that counts, though.
Overall I find ELP to be prog only for prog fans because it’s often so cringe and aged so poorly, but when their bad taste got out of the way for a few moments and they were good, they were really good.
But yes it is baffling to consider they were quite likely the biggest prog band for years.

>>123931225
i always felt Godbluff was slightly overrated, nothing close to as good as their first 4 albums, either way, i still like it, and i gave it a 6.5/10 which, overall is still a good score for an album, that said i probably should have given it a 7/10 at least. Still Life is a great album, but i felt like their first 4 were still better so i gave it 0.5 points less than the first 2 albums, World Record is decent, it has a decent 6/10.

Scaruffi is very based. He also saw right through Radiohead and is a huge fan of Robert Wyatt, so I can pardon any of his occasional shortcomings.
