>>129186311sorry. i was banned for 3 days.
>>129189646My fav Yes tale is when the producer told Jon to come back when he had some real lyrics.
hey ok real question, so what's the deal with the new Lamb lies down mix?listened to it at work today, not the most audiophile context, but... didn't notice a single thing different. Which might be a good thing, i'm not sure.
>>129189646Genesis have more such moments than Yes as far as i'm concerned

>>129195021not at allI love Genesis, but apart from Supper's Ready, they have done nothing that comes near Close to the Edge, And You and I, Heart of the Sunrise, Awaken, Gates of Delirium, To Be Over, Revealing Science of God, Remembering, etc

>>129195012>>129203206From what I can hear, it has a clearer and drier sound with more bleed, closer to the original mix, and fixes some of the “bolder” (putting it politely) choices of the 2007 mix.
I really like the sound of the drum kit on Selling England
>>129203509ok, interesting, thanks.
>>129186297One of my favoritesAlso I haven't been in these threads in awhile, did everyone know Andrew Latimer released some songs on bandcamp
Based.
>>129201778no he didn't. he used the brand of genesis (which he had no ownership of) to propel his own career. mike and tony deserved to use genesis as a cash grab. mike and tony could have taken fat shits into that faggot's mouth every day, and he still should have thanked them.

>>129210932gryphon
>>129210214>666 mogs your favorite rock operayes, but>>129210214>and All the Seats Were Occupied mogs your favorite prog epicnope. the basis of it is good, but the resamples and reprises that are most of the 2nd half really bog it down bad
>>129210932pic unrelated. but seriously, any of the 90s symphonic prog revival would probably take the cake. (nu-)kaipa, the flower kings, spock's beard, glass hammer, transatlantic, karmakanic,
>>129211966really? lol, i wish i could find that stuff/neo prog i heard euphoric, i try sometimes but, that damn mental block of 90s production... it's like a permanent suspension of disbelief, but for music
>>129186294Saw Uriah Heep today on their Magician’s Farwell tour. First prog (-ish) band I’ve seen live and it was an awesome show, even if Mick Box was ill and couldn’t make it
>>129211994yeah. i guess euphoria wasn't the right word i was thinking of. for some reason i thought it meant basic cheer and happiness. i still contend roine stolt (in various bands) should be in the contention for most euphoric. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWt1fK18EVkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx-0BmYg5Z8&t=2760s (skipped ahead a bit to provide a bit of a buildup right before the moneyshot)

>>129186297I think Raindances / Breathless was their peak.
Have you ever met a woman who was into prog?
>>129223982Last place I worked most of the people there including all of the women had heard of and were fans of Trout Mask Replica, does that count

>>129223827best ELP album, sadly. no saloon/comedy song
>>129223982Several, they're not that uncommon but then again I don't live in a wiseacre backwater
>>129218925I think it's crazier that Unorthodox Behaviour and A Trick of the Tail were pretty much recorded back to back. I think it's this reason that 1975-1976 was probably the peak of Phil's drumming ability.
>>129229102His work ethic in the 70s and 80s was just insane. He just didn’t stop.
>>129228246>what is nutrocker?
>>129230862yeah, fuck. forgot about that one.
>>129224893At my previous job we spent a lot of time driving to and from job sites and would take turns choosing the music. Roundabout ended up being "anon's song" among the others and a girl I was driving with actually sang along to the I Get Up, I Get Down section of Close to the Edge when I played it for her.
NuRush is happening and there's nothing you can do about it.
>>129234985this is like kc without fripper, peart was quite literally the soulno hate for the new chick she's alright but i can't believe these boomers are even considering the idea
>>129212084i saw them in '18 i think it was. they played all the Byron hits
>>129235573I saw them in the same tour m8. Not a big fan, but any time I see a prog(-related) band within an hour of me, I almost always go.
>>129223982I knew a woman who was into Magma, but she got into Magma through some online recommendation because an anime she liked had a zeuhl-ish sounding soundtrack.

Why no one told me about 70s era Tubes?
>>129250775it's not important
It would've been cool for KC to have done a 50th anniversary tour with tons of cameos from the various lineups coming out to play songs from their respective eras. The documentary was already happening by then so Fripp had more or less made truces with the likes of Giles and Belew and others, so it was probably doable.

What are your favourite albums that have low rating on progarchives?
>>129252853https://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=382
>>129252515I ran across this the other day. I don't know much about Peel, but I guess that sort of explains his quip at the end.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w40W2_iBfOI&t=180s
Prog peaked with Firth of Fifth.We can thank the genius Anthony (Tony) Banks for his brilliant Piano playing and writing of the Flute/guitar solo melody.
Atheistbros how do I cope with the ending of Supper's ready being pure, absolute kino
>>129252853Most of my favorite low-rated albums are pop albums put out by prog bands. And since it's a prog website, pop albums should have low ratings, even if it's good music. Invisible Touch takes the cake at 2.52.If you're looking at reviled albums that most will still admit is prog, but just bad, then it's The Astonishing by Dream Theater at 3.22.For the most part, I am very much a prog normie. In 99% of cases when rating a prog album, my personal rating is within 1 star of progarchives'.

>>129254658>Implying Genesis doesn't have shitty production Their pre-Trick albums have terrible production
>>129254469i mean yeah they're ripping off Genesis but they also rip off pink floyd and yes and introduce some post-punk elements to the fold. It all combines into something quite characteristic

>>129253549i like Magma's current lineup desu prob the strongest they've been since the Paganottis left even with Philippe gone and James dead RIP

>>129261620Enough about Tonys solo career
Anyone else enjoy Derek Sherinian's solo albums? I don't really care about Dream Theater at all, but his solo stuff (which may as well be an outright collaboration with Simon Phillips since he plays on, co-writes and produces most of it) is some great jazzy prog wank.https://youtu.be/RcOJ_JqzZ_w?si=dQ0zHLWMkn2MBu-3https://youtu.be/ejja0bGL-vw?si=SyShgUpv3Tt2Ehr1https://youtu.be/Tp_KnkDGJpE?si=wua14IuINOg5X6Ilhttps://youtu.be/V4gclTXiseo?si=NnjmrcGYCA8nsczH

>>129267658That one is actually gooddivision Bell on the other hand
>>129270460Division Bell has High Hopes at least
>>129267731A trainwreckord is supposed to be an album that's either so bad or bombs so hard that it tanks the artist's career or at least sets it back a ways, a creative and often commercial fumble that does longterm damage to one's reputation and popularity. It's not meant to be just any misstep or sellout in a band's discography. The Pink Floyd, Moody Blues and even Yes albums were pretty popular and in at least two cases actually revitalized the bands' careers even if they divided the fans. A few of the others are notorious but not very important in their bands' long and illustrious stories. Calling All Stations and Love Beach are textbook examples though.
>>129266670I actually think Giant for A Day is decent. It's a better attempt at doing something "mainstream" than the Missing Piece at least.
>>129270743If anything it should be Union for Yes
>>129267658>>129270460>>129270478>With all due respect to the people who went out and bought those records, they are just rubbish. Particularly The Division Bell; it's just nonsense from beginning to end. A Momentary Lapse of Reason had a couple of really nice tunes on it that, had I still been in the band, those chord sequences and melodies would have been made it onto a record that I was involved in. But conceptually and lyrically, it's just rubbish, partly because it's not true. It's like, "Let's try and write songs that sound as if they're Pink Floyd and make records that sound like Pink Floyd records."
>>129271471>With all due respectwow, such a polite gentleman
>>129271471My favorite Rog spergout is when he chastised Billboard for changing its rules for the album chart so old catalog albums wouldn't hang around indefinitely and keep newer albums out. Of course his only concern was that DSOTM wouldn't be in the charts anymore and that bruised his ego for some reason.
>>129271471Roger Tears crying about Pink Floyd albums after he left in a hissy fit has absolutely zero credibility.
>>129266534>was he a studio musician before joining Pink Floyd?He had a blues band that never made it but still managed to last a couple of years and record a couple of songshttps://youtu.be/Zrn1rSKifRE>how did he meet the guys?He was an old friend of Syd and one day he invited him to the studio. When Syd started to become a problem, the rest of the band asked him to play his parts on gigs, and the rest is history.
>>129271471>A Momentary Lapse of Reason had a couple of really nice tunes on it that, had I still been in the bandI wonder what songs he's talking aboutMy guess is Sorrow and On The Turning AwayFunnily enough, Gilmour played a bit of Sorrow during the Live 8 rehearsalshttps://youtu.be/pkpvJizgNPo?t=11

>>129271471He's right and we all know it.
>>129278034If we all know it why does it need to be said
>>129271471 Continued>Let me put it this way: They made a live video of one of their shows a few years ago, and I thought it was really awful. It became obvious to me that they never understood any of it at all. And neither did quite a large number of the great unwashed -- as long as there are lots of lights going off, and they can recognize the tunes, they're relatively happy.>I just don't think they understand the songs or what they're about. If you read old interviews, they actually say that. I can remember interviews from Dark Side where Rick was saying, "We really don't care about the lyrics." They remain connected to the numbers, the money, and so that's what you get, that's what you feel through it all.>What you don't feel is the connection with the magic, because there isn't any. The working relationship I had with Dave and Nick and even Rick to a certain extent up to and including Dark Side of the Moon was very exciting and interesting and worthwhile, but after that it became very problematic. We'd done everything we had set out to do, and we kind of clung together from that point on in a very uneasy marriage because of the name, because it was easy, and we'd created an enormous audience.

>>129266250Sounds like video game music from the 90s. Mildly good, but I'd never seek it out. A Change of Seasons is the only song he's recorded that I thoroughly enjoyed. The rest of the EP sucks, and so does Falling into Infinity.
>>129281931this nibba gets it
>>129280384>I would say their songs are already quite unique compared to other bandsWhy? It's djent metal and math rock.
how do you guys feel about Renaissance? I used to love Ashes Are Burning and Scheherezade
What other Eloykino should I listen to after Dawn and Ocean?
>>129282750Their entire discography front to back, except for their first album. They are a consistently solid band.
>prog metal can't be kin-ACK
>>129282580>love Ashes Are Burning and Scheherezadeboth good albums. i feel like they really needed someone to tell them to calm the fuck down though, a lot of songs would've benefited from just a bit more structure. even by prog standards, they can get pretty aimlessi think azure d'or is pretty underloved and one of the better prog sellout albums
>>129282580I think they're a really good and under-appreciated band, but sometimes the meticulously composed neo-classical style and Annie's particular way of singing can get a little overbearing after a while of continuous listening.
>>129273651What's with people complaining about the production on this? It sounds great, crystal clear
What's with Epstein and Pink Floyd?
>>129284004are these legit? i just saw one where he was gooning to fnaf futa porn on 4chan and im like.. what is reality anymore lol
>>129284052It's on the United States Department of Justice's website.
>>129280817They're good>>129281622Wikipedia refers to that album as "jazz metal">>129282216I haven't found another band which sounds similar. Other djent bands have vocalists for one thing.
>>129284112That doesn't answer the question
>>129282580as much as I enjoy some of their most dense and crafted music, I think they could have benefited for sticking to a simpler folk-rock sound, like they had on most of Ashesthe orchestral stuff can be overbearing at times
>>129285381>I haven't found another band which sounds similar.Thank God. Stop torturing the threads with these shit bands.
>>129283679what is this cheap comic book shlock?any genre may have their ugly covers, but the overall tackiness and lack of aesthetic sense in metal music and modern prog are bafflingit's always the cheapest cheesiest shit you can find
>>129284004They make good music together.
>>129286295the Paul - John of the 70stop lads
>>129282580Turn of the Cards and A Song for All Seasons are both really good too if you haven't checked those out
>>129284004Dave bros...
>>129279739i'd like to like this but it's tryhard grooveless wank
>>129286277what baffles me is bigger bands who could afford something legit but still choose to have the cheapest, dumbest sounding "orchestral" keyboard sound mixed in with otherwise decent production for everything else. ruining the entire thing
Gimme some occult prog>pic unrelated
>>129277870Happy birthday and preemptive Fhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVRHiSIeuAI
grop
yeah i mean i like them, or want to like them, but it's true that most of National Health is a pure caricature of proggy noodling, have to admit
wait no i meant Hatlfield and the north.i always get em confused
>>129285381>Wikipedia refers to that album as "jazz metal"I know. How exactly does this address my point instead of helping prove it

>>129186297Snowgoose is my favourite album of all time
>>129273651their best album>>129186297Mirage is their best, then Moonmadness, most of The Snow Goose and later is better live.
>>129290700i really really really like Never Let Go, though, it's the only Camel song that i like with the vocals
>>129290743https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNayU-egR1g
I don't give a fuck if it's not prog. It's a solid album and I don't give a fuck what anyone says.
>>129291348Words from the wise
>>129247196>>129276114I think that Fripp its just pussy whipped beyond any repair or something, i have the impression that Toyah puts convince him that this was a good idea, but he has a pass because he is based and King Crimson is great.
I surrendered to the temptation of another reaction slop video. Lord help me.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTemKrpQ2pM
>>129293204Too bad he's listening to the dogshit remixes.
>>129293204my favorites are the "Classical Composer Reacts to ____" videosthe audacity of these people to refer to themselves as "classical composers" amazes me.
>>129294663He also listened to the early Beatles albums in stereo
>>129294676hey, doug is a chill guy..
>>129294927He might be chill but he's also one of the most soulless motherfuckers alive.
Camel or Caravan?
>>129186294never knew Lex Luger played the drums
>>129296903Neither.
>>129296903Caravan easily
I'm enjoying some Picchio Dal Pozzo
>>129293204>>129294676>MUSICIAN REACTS TO>COMPOSER REACTS TO>host of the video is a Literally Who>has either not been in a band in over a decade, is in a shitty cover band that plays in a garage/basement, or is a solo soundcloud "musician" with no followers>doesn't play in an orchestra, closest he got was a high school band class but still has the gall to call himself a "composer">or it's a neckbeard who's composed maybe a few chiptune tracks and remixed some video game or anime songsevery time

gorp
>>129291348This doesn't get enough hate
Giles and MacDonald were true geniuses.Shame they only did one album.
>>129301522they were able to make this toohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tgm0M64yYAg
>>129187891I wanted to call my band Earthworks and thought I'd just come up with it and then remembered Bill had already done it. Such a good band name
>>129296903Caramel
what i feel with prog and the rejection of it is that it's like a broken promise.Beatles go psychedelic, Day in the life etc, so then it's 'oh, with the studio a song can really be anything'...then King Crimson explodes, setting the bar for what can be done with a Mellotron, Yes are just there ready to go, Genesis, etc...it sorta works for a quick few years, but by the time other countries really get into it like Italy and the Scandinavians, then all of a sudden 'yeah well thanks but no thanks we don't want that anymore'
>>129302720gibberish
>>129294676The funniest is that "Critical Reactions" neckbeard who's allegedly a trained composer who says he's been studying music his whole life then when he's shown something really basic and common like The Beatles or John Coltrane or Beethoven he's all dumbfounded, "what's this!? what's going on!?"
>>129302959While you were busy listening to the Beatles he studied the blade
>>129302720hello sir! I too very am a prog fan
>>129302959His helicopter parents probably forced him to study nothing but classical 24/7.
Fuck it, I don't care if you call me Tony, Hackett was a stubborn, high-maintenance brat who could never be satisfied. He contributed a good amount of writing to Trick of the Tail and Wind & Wuthering, even having a productive collaboration with Banks on a few tracks, but I guess that wasn't enough. He does one solo album and suddenly thinks all his throwaway ideas are too precious to compromise in a democratic band. He was just as whiny and obstinate in GTR too which tells you all you need to know.
I THINK PULL ME UNDER IS A PRETTY GOOD SONG but I haven't heard anything else from Dream TheaterMetropolis is supposed to be pretty good too
