Here's some actual good prog metal instead of the usual mainstream shit this gen seems to only know aboutPan.Thy.Monium (prog/avant-garde death metal from Sweden featuring Dan Swanson + members of Scar Symmetry & Edge of Sanity)https://youtu.be/NUEXdAGjVJ4!

>>123943028like 4 of these are bands that are constantly posted in /prog/ as examples of "good prog metal" for years
>>123943028>>123943073desu the pool of good progressive metal can't be that large if i'm constantly being reccomended dan swano, tooh, maudlin of the well and sigh all the time
>>123943028Would like to add this band I recently rediscovered. Female-fronted zeuhl metal from Japan https://youtu.be/84PE-vPQd8g?feature=sharedhttps://youtu.be/6GS1cEVnW20?feature=shared

>>123943965I don’t get it. Bands use some mellotron and get called lame unoriginal copycats because they love a certain sound, but then other bands go and play an entire genre just following the path laid by A SINGLE BAND and it’s eaten up. wtf?
>>123943968Original don’t got Karen’s voice or Richard’s arrangements, sorry/not sorry
so, i don't get it, is Black Midi good or not?
>>123944008It could have been good, but the stupid vocals ruin the fun every time
>>123943985>but then other bands go and play an entire genre just following the path laid by A SINGLE BAND and it’s eaten upI think zeuhl is probably the only genre out there whose lineage can be traced back to a single bandevery other genre that's popped up either popped up within a scene or you can point to a bunch of different bands that popped up around the same time

You guys only hate prog metal because you can't handle harsh vocals
>>123945526but instrumental prog metal is boring wankery too
>>123943088kek this
>>123945568>t. listens to ELP and Yes
>>123945526Harsh vocals sound retarded 85% of the time
>>123945581i only like 2 albums by each of those bands so nice shitty argument
>>123945592You have no right to call anything boring wankery if you like those bands
>deletes Moonchild>deletss Providence>deletes Requiem>deletes Dig MeMmm yup that's a perfect set of records
>>123945526If previous threads mean anything, /prog/ actually has a lot of people into death and black metal who think prog metal is fucking awful.
>>123945687>/prog/ actually has a lot of people into death and black metal who think prog metal is fucking awful.That's just the autists from /metal/
>>123945687even the most braindead brutal death metal is better than most prog metalgive me devourment over opeth any day
>>123945738Nah, there's loads of posts in the past from /prog/ explaining that prog metal is just the worst of both worlds since prog metal's neither good prog or good metal.Prog metal largely sucks and the few good prog metal bands are just copying what prog and avant-prog artists already did in the 70s.
>>123945526I don't hate prog metal out of hand, but I absolutely love just the ugliest, messiest, noisiest kinds of music possible--and I also love the most fey sounding prog folkprog metal lacks a lot of the fun parts of prog for me a lot of the time, because they're not good at experimenting with their soundI'd rather listen to Sissy Spacek or Harmonium than 99 percent of prog metal.
>>123945603you probably think jazz is boring wankery so no one cares what you think
>>123945758>>123945798Do you guys think Dream Theater is the only prog metal band or something?
>>123945814what's dream theater?
>>123945814I've never read any of them mention any prog metal that isn't dream theater, opeth or djent lol
>>123945678
>>123945814from my time in HS exploring it, it was DTbut also Pain of Salvation, Fates Warning, Riverside, Opeth, Symphony x, Agra, Ayreon, Devin Townsend, Kamelot, Liquid Tension Experiment, Saviour Machine, Nevermore, etcand I guess I dabbled a bit with stuff like Death, Atheist, Cynic, Watchtower, etc
I like Opeth, it's one of my favorite bandsRiverside and Tool are alright
>>123941846mediocrity aside, honestly impressed that he managed to dethrone wywh as 'most overrated prog album' on that site. Never thought i'd see the day

>>123945862>>123947091>>123947261I fuckin love John Wetton bros
>>123945814No, I used to really, really be into progressive metal in my teens before I started getting really into 70s prog rock and other forms of prog and stopped listening to most of the prog metal I considered good. In my teens I listened to everything from UneXpecT to Lykathea Aflame to Dark Millennium to !.T.O.O.H.!, worshiped bands like The Meads of Asphodel, Arcturus, and Sigh, used to love Dan Swano's various projects, thought Dir En Grey's prog phase was the coolest thing ever, owned every Voivod Album up until the 2000s, etc. Most prog metal, including most of what I listed with a few exceptions just fucking sucks man. A lot of it fails at being good metal because it's trying to pursue being prog, but a lot of it falls flat on its face in being good prog because prog metal musicians are trying to fit a cube into a circle-shaped hole trying to mesh styles that really don't fit together.I mean, there's still good prog metal, but the best prog metal are bands that lean heavily into metal rather than trying to be "King Crimson with growls" (*cough,* sigh, hail spirit noir, *cough*). It's why prog thrash and a few strains of prog/tech death are the only enjoyable forms of prog metal for me. Still love me some Voivod, still love me some !T.O.O.H.! Still love me some Lykathea Aflame. I tried listening to the new Blood Incantation because people fucking called it another one of the "good prog metal" albums and rolled my eyes because rather than blending the prog with the metal seamlessly it just alternates between pink floyd worship and standard death metal.
the best prog metal is made by prog rock musicians that aren't even metalfags lmaohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfR6_V91fG8https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR3tE3xRFrwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP1rjs6TCsQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuQZS2OW914

prog?
https://youtu.be/XiC31RuM1qc
Current 93 is prog
This is basically a Yes album
>>123950938more like Coldplay than Yes
bands like Secret Chiefs 3 and Estradasphere are good “prog metal” because they’re like not even 10% metal, they just know when to include a good chug
Hawkwind is metal
Rainbow is prog
>>123950784Howard Shore played on this ???!!!
>>123950938Embarrassing band name font. God, metal is retarded.
>>123950938>The StargateI gave up after two minutes. Also the video looks like it was put together by junior-high kids. I might try a broader sample later on.
>>123951081Metal being stupid is half the appeal desu
>>123945581I can see the point being made for ELP, but Yes is anything but wankery, their 70s output is extremely tasteful
>>123951067I dunno, who’s that? Oh that guy, soundtracks? Huh.Lighthouse was pretty good back then, a decent Canadian Chicago
Bros she was so beautiful,Almost as cute as Harper (Yes prog thread I know/fuck off, I like death metal (some of it) and the Carpenters)
literally everything is prog
>>123951397unironically true. as a genre label its use is basically the "i'm not like other girls" of music
Yes, because the whole point of prog is to be total music, open to any and all possibilities.So something like Ennio Morricone’s spaghetti western soundtracks that combine orchestra and guitar and choirs and whips and guns : prog
petition to rename /mu/ to /prog/

Leprous were the best prog metal band before they turned into boring art rock>>123945881I do not reallyconsider Riverside metal, they are closer to heavy prog like Porcupine Tree
Prog and power metal are truly the biggest poser repellentThey are too cheesy and not hip enough for the hipsters and avant fags and they are not heavy and kvlt enouugh for BM/DM fags
>>123952725He listed a bunch of RYM approved mallgoth bandsI bet he is that kind of guy who thinks Intestine Baalism, Edge of Sanity and early At the Gates are the only good melodeath bands
>>123951509true, although most "prog" bands from the 70s that are now labeled as "prog" or "progressive rock" did not use these terms to describe their own music. the term "progressive rock" later became more widely adopted by critics and fans retrospectively.
>>123952803>RYM approvedA lot of what he's listed has been internet-core since the 2000s, long before RYM picked them uphis post reads like the average 2008 /mu/ metalfag who posts on metal-archive's tastes.
For Yesterday https://youtu.be/SuFKpP8b9ro(lol this is on Metal Blade records)
call me when the metalfags leave and /prog/ is good again
>>123953420Metal Blade had Spock's Beard too but that's probably just because they're local
>>123952774what if i want extremely cheesy, but also heavy and kvlt, avant-garde prog metal or rock?
>>123953487You have Sigh
>>123952725Voivod (particularly their Dimension Hatross to The Outer Limits run) is the only prog metal band that genuinely stands up close to proper prog rock.The last recent prog metal albums I actually enjoyed were Gonin-ish's last album or Afterbirth's 2017 album but ignoring prog metal and back into prog rock I've been really into Devil Doll recently.>>123952803>I bet he is that kind of guy who thinks Intestine Baalism, Edge of Sanity and early At the GatesReplace Edge of Sanity and At the Gates with Arghoslent and Kronos you're correct
>>123953519>Arghoslentkek I forgot that chudcore band because they are not shown on RYM charts anymore
>>123952774true
>>123953519>intestine baalism and arghoslentyou're a walking meme
Prog metal peaked here
>>123953519Between the Buried and Me are better than all that pseud shit
>>123953579sirthis is a prog rock thread
>>123953579The Great Misdirect is their best
What's with the uptick in prog metal posting anyways? Did you guys get bullied out of /metal/ or something?
>>123953593/metal/ is too shitposty and /prog/ has a stick up its ass, I'll probably have to create a prog metal thread at this point
>>123953593I don't know I like both prog rock and metal
>>123953586Prog metal is just prog rock with more distortion
>>123953608>I like metaloh anon

>>123953621
>last king crimson album was their most metal sounding>last rush album was their most metal soundingEven the 70s prog rock guys like metal
>>123953659FLIGU GIGU
>>123953683I love metal.Prog metal largely and mostly sucks and most of the interesting things in prog metal come from people who normally don't play metal, or at least from metal musicians with an eclectic career in other genres.There's so much throwaway prog metal bands that half of the things labelled prog metal isn't even progressive. For fuck sake, a lot of avant-garde metal is hardly avant-garde and sounds more tame than even the most well known 70s prog bands. People throw around Sigh a lot and their drummer's so bad you could mistake him for a metronome lmao
>>123953731Listen to good prog metal not proge
>>123953763Deconstruction, Sing Along Songs and Scarsick are good tho
>>123953763>progeBro I was literally in the threads using the term proge when /mu/ first started using it. I know to stay far away from all of those albums.>Don't listen to these bands, listen to bands that you've already listened to over a decade ago insteadA lot of /prog/ literally consists of people who grew out or expanded out of prog metal.You'll tell me to listen to bands that I already listened to and (regrettably loved in hindsight) 10-20 years ago in my teens and early 20s.
>>123953605>/prog/ has a stick up its ass/prog/ is actually one of most reasonable generals on 4chan, you can tell there is more old fags here compared to the rest of /mu/
>>123953763Colors is a great album
>>123953848/prog/ is the place of serious postingthe rest of /mu/ is for shitposting
posting prog metal in a prog rock thread is like if someone started posting "lo-fi" hip hop, in a lo-fi indie thread or something, completely different genre that just happen to have the same term in it.
>>123953799>Scarsickthe rap parts really didn't work
>>123953763Baroness and Mastodon don't really fit on this chart
>>123953805I made that chart and I have been using it in /metal/ as well>>123953930Those were their shitty sellout albums
It doesnt click, its over
the problem with letting metalfags post freely in prog threads is that metalfags use the term prog way more liberally and have lower standards and a lot of what they post would hardly be considered prog if you stripped the metal from it and put it in the 70s
>>123953941>Those were their shitty sellout albumsThey're barely even prog. They're out of place next to all the other cheesy wankfest albums
>>123952566no argument from me here
>>123953585metalcore is literally not music
>>123953763That dt album sucks lmaoAnyways, anyone likes protest the hero?
>>123953963listen to Hhai form Live/Hhai, that's what made Magma "click" for me.
>>123953865no it isnt
>>123953763Why not both though? Some of my recent listening.
>>123953903Most people here equivocate endlessly and never actually read the damn title of this general.
>>123954011>protest the heroThe most soi band of all time
>>123954030>The OceanGood shit>Pineapple ThiefUsed to like them but their new albusm since Gavin Joined have been quite boring
>>123954021It is though. Not as good as their next two albums but still very good.
>>123953930Neither of those bands are good anymore so they belong there
>>123945526>You guys only hate prog metal because you can't handle harsh vocalsI mean, this general sucks off Magma and they had growled and harsh vocals an entire decade before metal started doing it.
>>123954071Where? Every time I tried getting into Magma it's operatic shit.

Ah, the pretentious world of prog metal, where misguided fans conflate technicality with artistry, drowning in a sea of overblown guitar solos and drumming that prioritizes speed over soul. It's amusing, really, how they crow about time signatures and polyrhythms as if complexity is inherently valuable, while true musical depth eludes them. In stark contrast, the golden age of prog rock, think King Crimson, Magma, Camel, and Univers Zero, they represent a pinnacle of emotional expression and coherent storytelling in modern music, where melodies and harmonies intertwine beautifully to evoke genuine feelings rather than mere headbanging frenzy. While prog metal wallows in an insufferable self-indulgence, the timeless elegance of prog rock remains an unmatched testament to the beauty of music itself, crafted not just for the intellect, but for the very heart and soul. 888 333 22 32, 01110100 01101111 01110000 00100000 01101100 01100101 01101100

>>123954198well, since they are EVIL nazis, surely they have killed, or harassed, or bullied, or...
>>123954137There's an earlier version of De Futura from 1975 that's even closer to metal because it has a more pronounced electric guitar.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXi2x9UJwCw

fuck metal, let's get back to our daily King Crimson / Robert Fripp discussion
>>123954269Yeah
>>123954250
>>123954296lets face it, he won
>>123954318of course he did, and he could beat the shit out of any of his haters easily, i've seen him do it, one time i was at a KC show, and this faggot got up on stage and FRIPP pushed him off the stage, i think he cracked his skull open, and Fripp just pulled out his dick and started pissing on him.
>>123954250Strawbs?
>>123954310>>123954354i already know them, thanks anyway RETARDS.
>>123954367>RETARDSthis is not very acoustic of you
i can't believe how tall Robert Fripp is, he's like 6'8", i always thought he was a manlet.
>>12395441969 DUUUDE
>>123954409sorry
>>123954419this is why he has to sit down, otherwise he'd look not like mushroom but a sequoia
>>123941846Wish You Were Here, Close to the Edge, and Selling England all deserve to be there. Maybe I'd pick a different King Crimson album (Red or Larks?) but otherwise, since RYM is supposed to be a review aggregator site, this is a perfectly fine selection of cream-of-the-crop, universally acclaimed prog albums.
>>123954434?
should i listen to Jethro Tull?
>>123941846>>123954449Also, Greep will eventually lose some acclaim with time and get a place that more accurately reflects its ranking, this always happens when a new album is a genre gets high reviews at launch

>>123955013I dunno but I always melded them with Renaissance for some reason, I have to remind myself they’re different bands.A bit like Camel and Caravan, but those I listened to a lot so now it’s good
>>123955013sure
>>123955146are they really that similar? i thought Renaissance was more like Symphonic Prog with some Folky elements, where Fairport Convention was more Folk with some proggy elements.
>>123955169I don’t think they are, just close enough to often be named together, and I got stuck with the link somehow… I still didn’t dive into Renaissance like I said I would, should grab some Fairport albums as well when I get to it
>>123955218yeah, pretty much everything from their Debut to "Babbacombe" Lee is great, after that their discography is pretty spotty
Is Zappa prog?
>>123955799One Size Fits All and ( ) are prog
>>123941130Hitchhiking - 4/10Radio - 5/10Amused - 9/10Life - 7/10
>>123955799Mostly.
>>123955805Is this bait? Of all the dozens of prog albums he's made, you only named two, one of which isn't even prog.
>>123955799Zappa was too afraid of good music to be prog
he finally got something good going with the Wazoo ensembles after fucking up the mothers, but then got bitter that audiences didn't go for his avant artsy wank, which he served instead of the monster grooves that his band could provide, and retreated back into "humour" territory, give or take
>>123955915Prog isn't defined by it's quality and I'm a massive prog fan. It's why I like Zappa even though a lot of his music is shit.
>>123955942I want to like Zappa, and sometimes i do, but he is his own worst enemy and saboteur
>the ultimate Genesis prog songThey should've just ended here.
>>123955013>>123955146oh hey Annie Haslam is in Renaissance?funny, i posted this earlier : >>123952383>Another angelic voice, Annie Haslam
>>123954250There's a really good one that I won't post because I once got bullied for posting it because it isn't /mu/core even though he was in a band with Regina Spektor and has been a highly regarded name in music for the past thirty years, so just know that there's a lot of really fucking good music that I'm withholding from you.
>>123956027seriously
>>123956011but, the lamb, bro.even Trick of the tail has glorious moments.
>>123956031>so just know that there's a lot of really fucking good music that I'm withholding from you.that's, um, the spirit i guess>>123956033yup. the name rang a bell but i didn't make the connection
>>123956053Exactly, fuck you.
>>123955942It's unfair how Zappa gets treated for having 2/3rds of his discography being worthless, as if this doesn't apply to the vast majority of prog bands
>>123956040>but, the lamb, bro.The Lamb is bloated shite.
>>123956104you need to listen to better bands
>>123956158I'll stick with Zappa, Mingus and Liszt, thanks.
>>123956187>MingusMore like Dingus :DDDDD

>>123957078No, that and the Final Cut both suck. Roger just wasn't good in the 80's.
Finally listened to that Jihadi Greep's debut album, I thought it started rather strongly, with the peak is the second half of Holy Holy. Terra and the title track are pretty nice as well.But then with each tracks, I found them rather uninspiring and that's when I found Greep really liked the 'slow start to boombastic, filled with instruments clashing one another and getting louder, ending' format because that's how he ended in almost every songs in this album. Every time he did that, I became less moved with what he's getting that.Also for a track that received so much applause, The Magician is actually an utter horseshit. Yeah the intruments getting bigger and louder are one thing but the lyric is just banal and it's just Greep "singing" it out loud like a man wanting a pussy so bad (which is apparently a running theme in this album? idgi).5.5/10, wouldn't listen to it again.
>>123956104The thing is, most prog bands were good at one point and bad at another, while, with Zappa, basically every other album he made sucked.
>>123958701He recorded so many albums and was undoubtedly very talented, so that there are still a handful of great Zappa albums. He certainly has more good albums than most prog bands.
Holy Shit
>>123958902possibly the greatest symphonic prog album
>>123956901Magma
Bretty good
>>123959210goddamn, the globohomo style escaped corporate websites
What did you think of this? I think it pretty much sounds like everything else they've done with Jordan Rudess on keyboard. Atonal and boring. It feels like I've heard those vocal lines a thousand times in their music before.They really lost the ability to compose a good album since Kevin Moore left.
>>123960012>What did you think of this?nothing

>>123956901you have to be over 18 to post here
>>123958738>and was undoubtedly very talentedwhich makes him going through all those efforts to make music way worse than what he could do all the more insufferable
>>123959210>>123959210>the globohomo stylemy immediate first thought too, wtf is that
>>123960012>vocal lineslol. i just went and took a few of the longer DT songs, edited out the vocals so i could listen to the music.some bits are ok, but goddamn, the cheesy guitar solos are all the same, they're like a caricature of 80s guitar
Is Progressive Shoegaze a thing?
>>123962013bro check out my blackened progressive shoegaze emo rap soundcloud
>>123962013
>>123961897Why do you bother, honestly? Just stick to what you like.
>>123962157why yes, I have edited most of his better albums to try and weed out the garbage. I’ve even edited many, many live versions of King Kong when he added in too many stupid bits that fuck with the flow.

>>123963503they are talking about the art style on the cover, not the music itself, not sure why you are posting pop punk in a prog thread, but whatever.
