>>129387875I'm happy they're doing it for new fans and people with a ton of money. I won't be attending despite living less than an hour away from one of the shows. The price is insane and the three of them were weak 12 years ago. Now one of them is dead and the others are 12 years older. There's no chance it will be good.

Seriously though, what did we think of Big Big Train's latest release? I've listened to little else over the past week. It hasn't moved me like The Likes of Us. It's fine and they have some good ideas, but it seems soulless on the whole.

>>129399219How did Roundabout become a meme with weebs anyways?
>>129402283there's this manga called jojo's bizarre adventure that's very popular, the creator's really into prog rock and filled it with prog references. the anime adaption did this iconic gimmick where each episode ended with a massive cliffhanger, and the ending themesong was roundabout, but it did this thing where the 40 second acoustic intro of roundabout played during the set-up for the cliffhanger and the actual credits dropped when the main song startedit became such an icon that japs and even western normies who've never watched the show edit roundabout into "to be continued" set-ups constantly
>>129402539is this a jojo reference?
>>129402539To this day if you look up the song you'll see comments from weebs saying "wow i didn't know this was a british band from the 1970s"

What's the Magma album to listen to if I got filtered by everything else, the Magma album where if you don't like it then you'll never get into them?
Is this based on some other song? I think I heard this melody before...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt4G0D9xkVk

>>129416360as he should
>>129416257>Implying Roger cares for Phil's health >Compared to his songwriting heroes, Waters knew that Collins represented everything superficial about the music industry, explaining, “I seem to always wind up attacking poor Phil Collins. He’s symptomatic of an awful lot of it. He might well disagree, and so might his fans. But the ‘feeling’ I get is that he’s pretending to be a songwriter or a rock ’n’ roller. It’s an act. That’s why it’s unsatisfying.”
>>129416426Well facts don't care about your 'feelings'
>>129416426i never implied anything. its just an image, dont think too much about it
do we like [spoiler]Porcupine Tree[/spoiler] here? im slowly moving out of 70s prog since ive listened to most of the essential groups atpjust got done listening to their first record and it was just okay

>>129399219Wait until you find out about Sei Shoujo
>>129418442They did their best stuff after Gavin Harrison joined. I used to listen to In Absentia and Fear so much I kind of ODd on PT.
>>129418442I try to like them because they're one of the few prog bands big enough to tour and draw an audience of more than a couple hundred. There are some good tracks here and there, but overall it's not quite my cup of tea.

>>129423659filtered
>>129412690seems MDK is the obvious answer.i like the live 2000 version better than the album
>>129412690The best way to get into Magma's their live stuff rather than their studio albums, after 1975 they started using a keyboards which went a long way to making them more accessible.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0hwS1sxbbY
>>129423306
>>129423659i like it but i didnt get the hype either. a single 3 minute track from john zorn or ornette coleman has more ideas going on than this entire album.

Who's the best prog bassist ever?
>>129426128Jonas Reingold
>>129426128Me
>>129426128Bernard Paganotti.
>>129426237jannick's better
>>129426128Geddy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg_Be-cHIeYArgent - Music from the sphere
>>129426128objectivelly Chris Squire
>>129426255Jannick was certainly more creative bassist and a better composer, but Paganotti took Jannick's sound and fucking ran with it; He was way more skilled bassist on top of that too.
>>129426966What a delight. I decided to listen to the album, but this was the only track that grabbed me. Man for All Reasons warrants more listens.
>>129427413>What a delight.right? took me quite by surprise, it came up on a shuffle going through downloaded stuff. sad to hear the rest isn't that level... could explain why this band is so forgotten after allbut to lurkers, check it out, it doesn't start that special but goes into solos a third way through and from there it's all gold
>>129426966I've been meaning to get around to this group of these days, especially since I like The Zombies. Great track.

>>129431097Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?
>>129431143Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste, but when Sports came out in '83 they really came into their own, commercially and artistically
>>129416257Roger isn't praying for Phil, he's praying to Satan to protect trans kids.
>>129416360More like the destruction of the white race because he only pretends to hate Israel just so you faggots can like him.
>>129418442>their first recordYou mean On the Sunday of Life? That's the worst first impression you could've gotten. It's less of a genuine album and more of a collection of shitposts from when the band was originally conceived as a joke.
>>129431250youre more obsessed with trannies than roger is

Acknowledge Kansas
The Final Cut is one of Pink Floyd's best albums. Top 3, even. I am not going to discuss this further. David Gilmour is a cuck and a hack.
>>129432710Why are you posting on a mossad honeypot, Rog? Not very BDS of you.
>>129432710youre extremely right
>>129418442>>129422712The issue with Steven Wilson is that he is basically a 70s prog cover musician. His entire output is basically a version of something someone else made. It's good, but the charade is always present. It's the best next thing if you're a millenial or a zoomer who never got their chance to see Pink Floyd or King Crimson live in their prime.
>>129432719YOU!YES YOU!STAND STILL LADDIE!
>>129432710Roger please. Charade you are.
>>129432723>the best next thing if you're a millenial or a zoomer who never got their chance to see Pink Floyd or King Crimson live in their prime.that was The Musical Box genesis cover band
>>129418442Yes, we love Steven Wilson here!The first PT album is from his psychedelic era. If you want to listen to their more prog oriented music you can start with their 2000s albums, like In Absentia or Fear of a Blank Planet.
>>129433169not true btw.

>>129437536Irrelevant to the question.>>129437591Not since 1985 at least.
Mikebros I still don't get Amarok, it's just a bit too schizo for me
>>129437672Thanks for trying. I wish you could hear the beauty I do.
What KC do I listen to if I thought Court sucked outside the first song, last song and Epitaph and I thought Poisedon was pretty good?
>>129437605He has members of The Band play with him during the Wall Live in Berlin show.
>>129437740Why did he never perform The Wall on top of the Berlin wall, it's right there
>>129437737Congrats, you're me. Just keep going in order. My favorite is Larks' Tongues in Aspic, but all of the 70s albums are wonderful upon first or second listen.
>>129437760Too busy seething at Dave and Rick to do that.
>>129437805that show is so much worse than is there anybody out there lolnothing against good ol rog but he needed chad energy (gilmour) around to rein in his lame ass theatrical impulses
>>129437864Did Dave just fuck him in the ass?Also is Any body out there is such a great live album. Shame it's off Streaming right now.
DON'T LET YOUR TEARS LINGER ON INSIDE
is it worth getting into prog if i only listen to Classical?
Bringing it back to Adrian Belew, what did you guys think of this now that the dust has settled a bit? I caught the tour in November '24. Honestly well up there with some of the other shows I've seen. I've seen Fripp w/ Belew ConstruKtion of Light tour. Beat had a more "American" feel I thought but Vai did well and respected the music. Belew looked like he was having a blast. https://youtu.be/Gyzqt-WyG6g?si=LvNw9mhvUghuZG1Nhttps://youtu.be/jHPVrzL3zqI?si=GZ70ojRm7RJqAX-C
>>129433169No they don't. They're brickwalled to shit and it sounds way too separated.
>>129438552>They're brickwalled to shit Can everyone please stop making an overused hyperbole of that word? It doesn't mean "slightly louder".
>>129438552Suppers Ready and Dancing with the Moonlit Knight is a travesty too.
>>129438623The vocals and instrumental at the beginning of Moonlit Knight aren't even in sync. Regardless of the overall creative choices, that felt like such a glaring hiccup that it must've been an accident.
speaking of shitty /prog/ reissues, what was zappa thinking here with those vocals? completely ruin the middle of what's otherwise a fantastic record
This is better than Pawn Hearts and Pawn Hearts is already really good
>>129404936nah
>>129438714To be charitable, maybe he thought that CD reissues are pretty exploitative by nature so if he was going to do it he might as well augment the originals with new elements. Though desu I hate the Hot Rats remix a lot more. Don't get how anyone could prefer it.
>>129438396yes
>>129438595Close enough. Left is the 1994 Definitive Edition. As fucked as those are, they're still far superior to the 2007 mixes.
>>129437737The Bruford stuff like everyone else>and I thought Poisedon was pretty good?Oh wait a minute...I don't really know what to tell ya
>>129438714>>129438771zappa lost the plot by the 80s, simple as the hot rats 80s mix isn't bad, i think saying it's better than the original is just weird contrarianism.
>>129438741I don't get pawn heartsWR > SL > GB > PH
>>129441094I want to say how can you possibly like VDGG and not get Pawn Hearts, but then I remembered I don't get H To He.I consider Pawn Hearts, Godbluff, Still Life, Silent Corner, and In Camera to be kino of the highest order.
I unironically like Earthbound more than Summit Studios. In fact, it's my second favorite King Crimson live release behind Zoom Club 1972 with Muir (which also has shite audio quality).Frankly at this point I feel like it's overhated just because Fripp disowned it way back when it came out. The performances are absolutely electric on here in spite of--perhaps, because of--the low fidelity. The Groon and Schizoid Man climaxes in particular are insane.
>>129441094I only get Pawn Hearts
THERE'S A TIMEAND THE TIME IS NOW AND IT'S RIGHT FOR MEEEEIT'S RIGHT FOR MEEEEAND THE TIME IS NOOOWWW
>>129441163What was the point of this album anyway?Was it a contractual obligation?Did Fripp wanted to take the piss out of everyone?Or just an autistic moment?

>>129453725OCTAGMA?
>>129453846>Banks later thought the album's concept was the weakest thing about it, though the lyrics to some of the individual songs are "wonderful".This is a perfectly reasonable opinion.
>>1294537251001/centigrades
>>129453846It's too frontloaded. Title track, In The Cage, Carpet Crawlers. Basically the songs they kept bringing back on a regular basis. At least in the case of, say, The Wall's filler songs, they were there for a narrative purpose. In the case of Lamb you know those weird extended filler passages are there so Peter had time to change his outfits.
>>129402283People see this as Araki having a weird music taste but most japanese otaku in the 70s and 80s were big metalheads and prog rockers. Look no further than Nobuo Uematsu who was a big Keith Emerson wannabe. Dancing Mad feels like a lost ELP epic. And women were into that music big time, there's this female mangaka in Manben who kept modeling his male characters after Led Zeppelin members because she thought they were super cute.

I think this is one of the best prog albums released in the last decade.
>>129388554i had a friend who was a huge rush fan who had seen them live like 20 times and always wore rush t shirts and he died just before neil peart did. its so wierd that they are coming back with a tour

>>129462071black midi are alright, but they get a lot of shit here.>>129461908I'm still mulling through their back catalog, so I'll have to give this one a listen. The 2017 releases are my favorites: Polygondawanaland, Sketches of Brunswick East, and Flying Microtonal Banana.

What even is a Rotters Club anyways
>>129441163the noisy jazz sound they have is great, but the lo fi makes it pretty tiring to listen to for 46 minutes
>>129465069Fripp may have accidentally invented the “official bootleg” thing.
any /prog/ bootlegs you beautiful gentlemen enjoy? ive been on a zappa binge lately. i hope this show gets officially released from the depths of his vault one day, the guitarwork is fucking ace. love this track in particular. it's so dark and evil sounding.https://youtu.be/TPYlk7COZcs
>>129441163yeah I really like this album a lot, definitely my favorite version of Schizoid Man and the other instrumentals are great. Probably my second favorite KC live album behind the Great Deceiver box set
>>129465390Genesis Six of the Best is a classic. I'm surprised they haven't done anything official with it, since the bootlegs are already pretty good quality.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3e3w48rZrw
Listening to this album rn.NU SHOOZ - POINT OF NO RETURN (OFFICIAL VIDEO)https://youtu.be/yavaJNXoMe8?si=XnMvDnMNkiV_GL-gthis is kinda the sound I'm tryna have now as a musician but a little more urban, hip-hop or boom bappy and modern (as in techno or edm modern). It's ironic that I want this sound today and this came out EXACTLY 40 years ago almost to the day. March 1986. So it was literally being made and recorded right about now, 40 years ago. That's how I kinda guide my musical journey. You gotta pay attention to cycles and patterns because the world (and the musical scale) was created using the Fibonacci sequence which is basically code for infinite patterns and cycles.
>>129466021Nu Shooz - Poolside (1986)probably the coolest non-hip-hop or rock album I've ever heard. For sure the best one from the 80s.
>>129466021Wikipedia: Valerie Day's performances with Nu Shooz had mixed reviews. She and Smith (her husband and band partner) were credited with "rewriting the book" on Portland's R&B sound. One reviewer at the Seattle Times described her as having a "tough but perky wholesome image," and praised her dancing and conga playing, but opined that she over-used a certain vocal hook, and was reluctant to step out as the star of the group. From 2010 to 2014, Day was an adjunct professor at Portland State University, where she taught Contemporary/Jazz Voice.
>>129465390i always thought stockholm 73 was deserving of an official release. now that the show is basically available for free on the internet i doubt they'd care to release it but idkzappa's tone was great that nighthttps://youtu.be/WTuI3jgtWDE?si=7ZFqkcycEJPiFqpU

>>129453725I'd donate something like this to a church. Even if it was brand new. Or give it to my grandma. I'd only wear a sweater like that if it was blank. I'm cool on ur corny logos and designs. The look of wearing a blank hoody or sweater has way more impact than all that trendy shit ya'll wear that ur gonna think is lame in 3 years anyway. Everyone has a signature look, whether they know it or not. The people that don't know it usually are the ones who look retarded and lame because they tryda follow everything and try everything they see everyone else doing. They have no sense of self or individuality. But if it works on you and you can pull it off and still be sexy F it. I mean, I know I could. I just wouldn't with something corny looking like that, OR trendy. I wear a solid black hoody, an LA dodgers ballcap, and a fresh pair of 60-dollar Lee's. Air Jordan 4s an 5s n all white Forces. That's literally my whole wardrobe other than packs of white T's and white beaters. I will wear Navy blue and Khaki Dickies too. Only da pants tho. The full suits are a lil too extra for me personally, but I do think their fire and probably would wear em if I was a lot slimmer (I'm like 190 at 6ft). That's just me tho. And you can't be me. Be you.
>>129466046how did they get an Ai album cover in 1986 is the real question
>will no one lay the laurel wreath when silence drowns the screams???
>>129467061can't mourn the human race when everyone's dead
Tarkus if he a lamp
>>129438407I got to see them on tour, they clearly ALL loved doing it, just a joy to watch. I've never been a Vai fan before then and I was pretty blown away. He did a solo for Sheltering Sky like nothing I've ever heard.
>/prog/ approaching bump limitIt's enough to make a grown man cry ;-;
>>129467574Emerson, Floor and Lamp
>>129469824Thanks for the response. Yeah. Vai was always the Devil's Guitarist in Crossroads to me. During that show he really impressed me which got me more into his solo stuff. And I thought it was really cool how Fripp gave his blessing to the whole project and corresponded with Steve Vai with suggestions and advice.
>turtle has a short leg not for walkingWhat did he mean by this
>>129473396Their legs are OK
acknowledge 'ethro Tullright now
>>129473898>aqualung the song goes so fucking hard and rocks pretty hard>rest of the album is bullshit british folk lullabies or le heckin underage hooker bullshit that the 70s thought was so profound
>>129473901Ah, I see you gave up after Side 1. Way to out yourself.
>>129473898Passion Play is their magnum opus and one of the top 50 albums of all time. Songs from the Wood is the best light-hearted prog folk album. Bursting Out is a top 5 live album. Prime Ian Anderson was the most charismatic front man with the best showmanship in any band ever.
>>129474091>bro if you don't like literal nursery rhymes then you're le filtered
>>129473898I wish they went in a more complex and heavy direction after APP rather than the whole ren faire thing
>>129474846Songs From the Wood is one of the most complex and heavy things they made.
>>129474570No, you're allowed to not like nursery rhymes. But your original post made it clear that you disliked Cross Eyed Mary and Mother Goose yet if you bothered to actually flip the record over you'd realize that My God, Hymn 43, Locomotive Breath and Wind Up all rock pretty hard. Just don't post stupid shit when you clearly have no idea what you're talking about
>>129474902Why would I bother listening to the rest of the album if I didn't like what I heardSunk cost fallacy ahh blud
>>129474846King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and VDGG did enough to make Passion Play-esque music. Don't get me wrong, I love that type of music and those are three of my favorite bands for a reason. Still, I like the variety Tull brings with Songs from the Wood, Thick as a Brick, and Heavy Horses.
>>129473898Tull and GG = gods of prog
how did they hide this in plain sight
SCHEHERAZAAAAAAAAAAADDDEEEEEEE
>>129438762I need this back on streaming...this is the definitive version of the album

>>129487340For me, it's the Lake version.
>>129486739Talk to the Wind
>you need a second hand movie star to tend you???

>>129489496How often does /prog/ hit TWELVE days before bump limit?
>>129489496Don't get your hopes up
>>129466021>>129466046Holy shit, I've left this general for months and imagine my surprise when I come back to find shit that's not prog posted here. This general is a joke.

>wojakfaggot complains about quality
My fav record from them. Recommend more sovl prog records like this, please.
/prog/ anons, have you ever looped a prog epic over and over and what's your record? Mine is Gates of Delirium 5 times in a row, I loved it.
>>129495164I listen to Tarkus on repeat for 8 hours
>>129495164Once I was tripping balls and listened to Eruption by Focus over and over again for a few hours
>>129476245agreed
>>129495164I listened to The Remembering a few (I think three?) times in a row. Wonderful song.
