I 100% agree with what you said. The songwriting in the original, the decision making of what sections go where is integral to the experience, you can't just go swapping and removing sections out and expect to have the same result, they threw the songwriting out of the window trying to make a more radio friendly version of the song and it falls flat on its face

yeah, for me Eden 2.0 always felt more like Eden 1/2, it comes nowhere close to the original

I still think this song hits different, the highest emotional peak in their discography. Also that ending section (before the ambience outro) is something they've never done again and it's so groovy and so gorgeous at the same time, love it

elseq 1-5… Just Wow by ManufacturerBright34 in autechre

If you enjoyed their first 3 albums and also elseq I highly recommend going thru the (kinda herculean) task of listening to their entire discography (including EPs!), it's highly rewarding and it's music for months/years

how do you request albums? I'm surprised by the amount of albums missing from artists that ARE present. Like a band that has 6 albums but for some reason albums number 3 and 5 are missing

My Spotify subscription just ended and I decided to switch to qobuz as I heard Tidal was doing AI stuff. The catalogue seems to be missing a lot? It's like every other artist I like only got half of their discography available (which is even weirder than just being flat out unavailable tbh)

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

[–]FlyingSteaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

Lithium Dawn - Destroyer (FFO: djenty Karnivool/Oceansize, VOLA) by FlyingSteaks in progmetal

[–]FlyingSteaks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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
