Why do hipsters hate modern prog unless it's quirky spork core bullshit?
prog sucks unless it's sporkcore. Zappa and Gong proved this 50 years ago
juice, my wank is quite gaseous
>>129995374>Zappa and Gong>better than Genesis, Yes and Pink Floydposers actually believe this
>>129995367>quirky spork coreBoth these albums sound like elevator music
peoples feelings are hurt by good music/artists these days
>>129995367Both these albums are very disappointing and don't live up to the hype unfortunately. Greep is significantly better though.
Because no one is making prog anymore. It's literally a dead genre.The New Sound is basically theater kid music and Vagina de Poutine is gimmicky Krautrock.
>>129995391Dawg Frank Zappa is the best.
I'm still listening to crimson. Sorry
>>129995367>modern progdone>quirky spork core bullshit prognewIt really is that simple. Someone has to be making up the new things or we'd never have had prog in the first place
>>129995367They're threatened by seriousness due to Low T
>>129996766>>quirky spork core bullshit prog>newCan you shut the fuck up?
>>129995367All hipsters are unmusical.
>>129995374fpbpalso Magma
>>129995367Clown Pyramid is a costume performance. The wackiness is the fun; the grooves are the foundation. The real gem about them is they can play their instruments. They are probably driving the hardest grooves since Tool's EP Opiate.
>>129996692How is the music itself gimmicky?
>>129996726Zappa is soulless wanking
Whats quirky spork about Georgie Greep?
>>130001084He's british
>>129995367Hipsters dont exist anymore, these are just normie tiktoker kids that follow these bands.
>>130001084his constant use of swear words to make him sound less like a trust fund kid
>>129997730the extensive use of loops restricts how the songs can be composed compared to a full band playing
>>130002078Fair critique, but that isn't a gimmick, and lots of bands use loops.
The looping part is the most horrible one. It really chops up the music, not that they had that much talent available, but still.
>>129996692>no one is making prog anymore. It's literally a dead genreSo we are just gonna pretend Steven Wilson, Haken, Riverside, King Gizzard and Opeth don't exist?
Just caved and finally listened to Angine de Poitrine, they're not bad but they just remind me of Fripp's League of Gentlemen. I don't get all this talk about them having a super revolutionary sound.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsHVdNxlFYw
>>129995391Genesis > Zappa > Pink Floyd > Yes > Gongt. Prog Pro
>>129995367These two bands are not even remotely comparable. One of them is British theater kid Windmill slop and the other is actually just solid prog but they wear funny costumes
>>130003314>angine de poitrine>solid prognot a single thing stands out to me in their entire repertoire, it's just like yeah i kinda dig this, kind of a one trick pony, cool outfits, the microtonal thing is cool but they don't do much with it beyond this sort of middle eastern rattlesnake sounding thing, not a lot of variation.greep & his bands are on a different level entirely, he's hit or miss but is almost always doing something unique & memorable & the absolute musicianship is just undeniable, especially if you've seen the band live. i danced like i didn't know it was humanly possible to dance at their recent nyc show, i'm talking about interpretive skanking to 7/4 polyrythms
>>129995367Prog honestly isn't so daunting when you realize bands like Yes literally stitched different jams together in the studio. No need to get silly with it. Just come up with a bunch of cool parts, find a way to make them fit together, and unleash the dam.
>>129995367Why don't you just recommend some other modern prog?
>>130004180Black Midi
>>130003314>solid prog but they wear funny costumes*solid math rock but they wear funny costumes
