>>131553156the album with the eyes looks familiar.
Is this the general that loves to worship the BBC slave known as Roger Waters?

Did anyone else like this album? Thoughts?
>>131552692This isn't prog. It's jazz fusion.
>>131554710Yes. The track Luna Park is amazing. It's crazy how they managed to make this when they were all around 15-16 years old.
>>131554838>BrufordProg adjacent
>>131553506No, Roger Waters is not prog
How did they do it, bros?
>return of the giant /prog/weed
>>131554710absolutely. always a great listen.
>>131554838
so... did anybody try any different prog for the ~month /prog/ hiatus? or have you only listened to the same stuff you've heard a hundred times already?
>>131558745Correct, Roger Waters is not prog rock. He's trooncore.
>>131560848There are only 4 prog albums
>>131561184what are they?
>>131561366Yes
>>131561366king crimson in the court of the crimson kinyes close to the eddgegenesis foxtrotgeorge floyd dark side of the moon
For me, it's Hatfield and the North, the greatest prog rock band.

>>131564205i wish someone would hit steven wilson for making such bad music.
>>131565022Lmao did he hit your mom or something?
>>131565062But mom said it's my turn on the Xbox...
*Filters you*
what should i listen to if my fav prog albums are pawn hearts, still life, the power and the glory and red?
>>131566176https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shRRHK4mxRY
>>131566204im not deep enough into the hammill rabbit hole yet. im sorry, i fail.
>>131566176>>131566261I'm assuming you've listened to everything else VdGG, GG and KC. Definitely give Peter Hammill a try, at the very least Silent Corner.
>>131566331I love Silent Corner. Louse is not a home is one of my favorite songs. Haven't listened to much else by him yet so I might as well do that.
>>131566345His stuff is kind of all over the place but good. Nadir's Big Chance is a great one, sort of prog punk. Then pH7 is a great one too
I made a few desktop wallpapers from KC albums. Thought I'd share themI'm looking for any suggestions on Album covers that might translate well into wallpaper form>>131565996One of my favorites, but unfortunately i listened to it too much so now I just return to it once or twice a year
>>131566781Surprisingly googel didn't have any good hd scans of the newer knot design. I got this from a reddit post and I'm pretty sure it's from a T-shirt
>>131566800The 80's albums are obviously the easiest to translate to wallpapers due to their simple colors with singular images. Others tend to be too busy, complex, or uncomposed to work as wallpapers
>>131566821and ToaPP
I actually had a friend with the last name Bruford at school. We shared a lot of music with each other, including quite a bit of prog. His favourite album of all time was In the Court of the Crimson King. To this day, I haven't listened to it except for snippets.We used to make jokes about >Yeah I like my dubstep super filthy >Like skrillex and deadmau5Great guy. Always used to sit next to him on the coach for various school trips.
>>131566781>One of my favorites, but unfortunately i listened to it too much so now I just return to it once or twice a yearOh man, iktf. I used to love Pink Floyd but I played them to death
>>131561366Yes - TormatoKing Crimson - The Construkction of LightELP - Love BeachPink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon (Roger Waters 2023 redux)
>>131565996Nowhere near as big of a filter as picrel
>>131558745>>131560850Every word demonstrably true
>i wish someone would hit steven wilson for making such bad music.
>>131566958Octopus is a more challenging listen in my opinion. TPatG is shorter than Tales and is broken down into more songs, making it a more digestible album.>>131566781Do you have some in 1440p? Also Fragile, Relayer and Tales by Yes would be nice wallpapers.
>oh hey, /prog/ is back, maybe they've learned their lesson and we can discuss actual music>its still slidewhistle wankLet's just change it /demento/. Which did you guys like better, Winchester Cathedral or Disco Duck?
>>131567476I'll try to see how well the Lark's one upscales to 1440p, but the original I made it from was 1900x1900 in total so we'll see. The rest are still in 16:9 ratio so should work with 1440p naturally.As for the Fragile, Relayer, and Tales ones you can already find 4k scans of most of Dean's artwork on various websites. Thankfully this guy on reddit already upscaled some scans all the way to 3440x1440, with an additional 171Mb zip Mega file in the replies of Dean's other workhttps://www.reddit.com/r/WidescreenWallpaper/comments/18dpym2/roger_dean_3440x1440/I also have this stupid big file (7237x4071 43Mb) of Fragile's album art in a catbox linkhttps://files.catbox.moe/23u1f1.png
>>131568215Nice one
>>131567476>Octopus is a more challenging listen in my opinionidk, I think it's one of their catchiest albums

best instrumental prog albums?
>>131566958That's their most accessible album tho.

>>131566781You done Red? I thought I'd try my hand at iti have a few variations to choose from, border/no borders, logo etc that i can upload depend what people prefer
>>131552692I know Starcastle is basically "we have Yes at home" but I dig them. Good bgm for some high fantasy epic.

Ladies of The Road live album is good
>>131552692https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ua1N3oKRUAUTed Nugent was once on a (borderline??) prog rock album.
>>131571361i listened to their first album once. I don't remember any of it. I might give them a listen eventually after I listen to more Yes.I kinda like the castles on the album cover, but the angle of the perspective of the drawing is distorting them.

>>131571486Usher is easily my favorite thing Peter did post-1980. For a long time it was rated as highly as his classics on PA.

Proggybumps
>>131570401I've listened to it twice and just can't get it to click. I do like it but I see the love it gets and feel like I'm missing something.
>>131567476>>131568215Here's the 1440p version of Lark's. If I could get a higher res version of the sun and moon logo it might look better, but the slight blurriness is barely visible on my end.I remade the borders from scratch so they're now endlessly scalable>>131571298I considered it since it works well for wallpapers due to the large dark background and the thin border lines. I even though it might be funny to make several versions where one has only Fripp, other only Bruford and one only Wetton, then randomly shuffle through them.
>>131552692Welcome back.
>>131579338My friends to the show that occasionally ends.
>>131570401Raconteur Troubadour and Knots are the only songs I really like. The rest is fine.

King Crimson is the Linux of prog. Many have it in their computer but they don't really use it.
>>131584360Post 80s crimson is kinoAnd yes I'm including ConstruKction in that
Now that the dust has settled, was it autism?
>replace Facts of life and HWWYHTBHW with anything elseWould this make it the best of the last three or does THRAK still mog it?
>>131565996There was a time I was stuck at an airport for hours and hours and just listened to Tales on repeat. Love it.
>>131567476>Octopus is a more challenging listenIn HS I remember playing Boys in the Band during a presentation I had to give. I thought I was so cool.I'm a virgin at 33 btw
>>131584546THRAK would still mog it, but TCOL still mogs both. Honestly I think it'd be better off replacing Level 5 with Potato Pie, it still wouldn't mog THRAK but at least it would surpass TOAPP. Hell, honestly I would just add TPTB part 2 to the 2002 EP and I think that would honestly be better than THRAK if treated as an album
>>131584584Kino experience>>131576281Based wallpaper anon. Thanks.>>131581548I like all of Rush's albums. Their 80s/synth/pop era is still great.
>>131584584The real music for airports, eat your heart out Brian Eno
>>131584397ConstruKCtion is excellent and it's pitiful that Belew doing a stupid voice on the first song filters so many people. ProzaKC Blues hits home anyhow if you're in the middle of a shitty med adjustment
>>131584360How do I use King Crimson?
>>131584360King Crimson is easily a top 10 band I actively choose to listen to. And I essentially never skip them when it comes up on shuffle.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAJ6s15ziSoNot prog, but I bet Andre 3000 could make something prog-adjacent if he put his mind to it.
listening to UK
listening to Rome

>>131589571No he couldn't. He's a retard.
>>131584432You can't reduce the work of the greatest guitarist of all time to mere autism
>>131593848Holdsworth only works on other people's music, his own is insufferable
>>131589601Based, criminally overlooked band.
>>131588675It just works
I like folk more than prog.
>>131594772I like folky prog
I like beer and I like cheese
Beer and soju and mixing some prog (it's totally prog cause its intro is 7/8 and definitely not ripped off of tool)
>>131572679can anyone else see what i mean?

>>131596559Album shuffle. Not song shuffle. I'm not a faggot.

>>131597430Is disliking bad music considered being filtered?
>>131599239I wouldn't know, I never disliked bad music
I love love love prog!
I'm starting to think that even on Mike Oldfield's worst albums, there's always something that's worth listening to.
>>131596559>>131596742The biggest talentless hack of prog
more people should listen to this album.
>>131570765>>131604906
>Winston Churchill dressed in drag>He used to be a British fag
>>131604971what a drag
>syd barrett era floyd is actually good>i suffered through all the trash that is the rest of their discography until getting there lastwtf man why do boomers and flannel-people have the worst taste all the time. i gotta stop taking their recommendationsanyways just thought i would post this nugget of wisdom here since i know a lot of you are fellow "pink floyd is not prog" bros
>>131565996I think it's a little too spacey, especially coming off CTTE, but people were way too hard on it. Tales along with ELP in general seemed like the non-proghead punching bags for "prog bad".
>131604640>The biggest talentless hack of prog
More like this?
>>131606742>>131565996
>>131606764I'm already a TfTO enjoyer. It's a bit too uplifting to fit into that IMO even if I do get where you're coming from with the psychedelic vibe.
