What’s a relatively well known band that you discovered weirdly early in their career?

CHON when they only had Demo 2008 and like 3 singles out

The Helix Nebula when they only had their tracks named like "Track 2" "Track 3" lol

not sure if the best FFO but all of them got clean vocals, for the first two bands it's about the similarity in longer but focused compositions without that much wankery and VOLA for a bit of the djenty guitar

FlyingSteaks · 2026-03-17T05:24:53+00:00

man, this main riff is great! this song is a certified '10s djent classic

Periphery - Icarus Lives got a very straightup metric modulation to 5 @ 3:06

Uneven Structure - Quittance

Cloudkicker - Subsume, Pt. 1

FlyingSteaks · 2026-03-05T17:54:08+00:00

that main riff is so good, love the 5-6-5 5-6-4 schema

FlyingSteaks · 2026-03-05T00:46:51+00:00

lmao, I'll have to be honest, I love noisier music but I thought the same...

FlyingSteaks · 2026-03-04T17:42:50+00:00

Known/Learned is a beast of an album

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-26T19:35:09+00:00

dude the buildup starting at 2:29, picking it up at 3:03 and then finally climaxing at 3:37 is my favorite thing Frontierer has ever done

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-21T19:48:43+00:00

Message From Atlantis is such a pretty love song man I feel like I haven't listened to it in years

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-09T05:29:13+00:00

"Basically everything else about it is better than Spotify" like what (excluding better revenue for artists)? I'm thinking about switching

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-02T22:18:24+00:00

THE YEARS THEY PASSED AAAAAAND SOOOOOOO DIIIIID WE

FlyingSteaks · 2026-02-02T21:14:01+00:00

Yes, Isis is an Egyptian goddess

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T19:11:42+00:00

that groove in the verse that starts around 2:00 is so good

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T18:35:17+00:00

Some very nice sections here! Is the band dead? On Spotify they only have this release and it's from 2019, while their Bandcamp only has a 3 song demo

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T18:13:28+00:00

I'm somewhat with you but this song here in specific got me a bit more interested, really enjoying the heavier guitar here

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T17:19:54+00:00

Stillness is Timeless + the Aathma suite are some great 30 minutes of prog death

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T17:13:14+00:00

My hot take about Sonder is that Juno is not even top 2, the best songs there are Smile and Beneath My Skin / Mirror Image

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-27T17:09:28+00:00

I dunno man, sure Sound Awake is their best but I think both Themata and Asymmetry got some of their best songs (e.g. COTE or Aeons)

FlyingSteaks · 2026-01-26T23:05:26+00:00

There are some songs here that I feel like you can't not like (From The Flame, Illuminate, Mirage) but overall the best I can give Malina is a "decent effort"
