Rip off their mask, revealing Rick Beato underneath. I slam his head through a plate glass window.

I heard them on the radio last night and they finally clicked for me after months of me dismissing them as a "quirk chungus meme band".

Cool. Prog needs new blood.
>>
>>131669213
Prog had new blood for the last 25 years and hipsters have been igonroing it because it wasn't cool enough and shilled by the reviewers
>>
>>131669230
Prog wasn't cool? Stop the fucking presses

It's interesting how most modern prog has been dropping down in ratings over the years except for alt prog bands like The Mars Volta, Gospel, Karnivool, Coheed and The Dear Hunter, the current user base clearly has a preference for that style considering they also love nu-metal and pop emo bands

However when you look at prog metal not much has changed with the usual critical darlings such as Tool, Mastodon, Gojira, motw and Opeth on top though there is also that prog death album from Chile and a Touhou inspired album

Maybe I'm just in the wrong mood but Genesis isn't clicking with me. Five albums in and I'm not hooked like I was with some of the other titans of prog.

Their music is pretty alright even without the gimmick. Not very memorable but fun to listen to in the moment.

I was fine with their music. Nothing blew me away, but it was listenable enough. But then I saw the video. Something about it really disturbed me on a visceral level.

was on a 2-hour train yesterday so i thought i should do some listening so i ended up with 'Test for Echo' by Yes and it's so fucking baddddd, I only 'like' Half the World and that one is repetitive as hell.
dogshit lyrics, uncreative guitar riffs, boring ass melody. the drum is good as always though
>>
>>131675014
by *Rush
omg that's such an error from me
>>
>>131675014
Test for Echo is pretty inarguably their weakest album I think, by a pretty healthy margin too.
>>
>>131675014
>>131675672
I like "Driven" and "Resist." In fact, I can pick at least one song from each album that I genuinely like other than Presto and Rush. So while the average may be a bit higher on those two albums than Test for Echo, I would never willingly choose to listen to anything off them (unless it's to see if the albums are still dogshit).

>>131675672
i think Snakes and Arrows is worse
>>
>>131675014
TFE is endearingly bad that it becomes good.
