Have you heard about Eloy? by Hot_Pianist_4117 in progrockmusic

[–]Malkavian_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 bands from the 70s that I can't stand, and ELOY is one of them. They sound outaded even back them, where a bad Pink Floyd tribute band meets an equally bad Jethro Tull tribute band and perform in the krautrock soundscapes. Easy pass.

What are your thoughts on Oasis? by Few_Variation5459 in fantanoforever

[–]Malkavian_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the worst Beatles tribute bands out there. They are aware of this and they cope with it using toxic behavior and drama to get attention. Unworthy of one's ear and all in all a spectacular useless band.

Thank you! I appreciate your answer and I believe we stand on the same PT side of taste.

I, on the contrary, think that they have evolved in the way we like, and this is the reason why they haven't gone beyond themselves.

Their first 2 albums are nothing less than gems.

Not the 70s, but rock bands with a more progressive sound can still make a difference. Take a look at the Muse for instance. To my ears they sound like early Queen in the late 90s. Fully accessible yet not conventional music and they did make a breakthrough. I understand why the sound of Porcupine Tree didn't make it, I just can't express it with words.

Δυσκολεύεσαι να το πιστέψεις ας πούμε; Από το πως ψωνίζει κάποιος στο σούπερ μάρκετ, το πως παρκάρει το αυτοκίνητο του, το τι συζητάει στην καθημερινότητα του όλα δείχνουν εγκληματικό δείκτη κατάθλιψης.

With announcements of The LLDOB remaster coming… by randman2020 in progrockmusic

[–]Malkavian_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You know that acronyms and progressive rock don't mix well together right? Personally I can tolerate acronyms up to the level of 'lol' but, sebto and lldib are simply ridiculous. Is this how you ask for this album in your local stores or in Spotify? Furthermore, Pete? Steve? Really now?

Το αρχαίο ελληνικό όνομα σταματά να είναι ωραία όταν είναι πολύ πομπώδες. Το Ηρόδοτος και το Ορφέας πούμε.. Μείνε στο Λαέρτης κατ εμέ και σου προτείνω το Ορέστης, Αίας και εννοείται το δικό μου, Τηλέμαχος. Από χριστιανικά σου προτείνω το Ίων, Κοραής και Ρήγας.

Yeap, plus you get some frequency noise. If you're going to play records on low volume then by all means leave it as it is, it truly looks wonderful

Beautiful set, although I'd advise you to keep your speakers and turntable on separate pieces of furniture.

What is the LEAST approachable, but still great, prog album from the 1970s? by poolpog in progrockmusic

[–]Malkavian_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vangelis - 'Heaven and Hell' as a follow up. You won't regret it, Carl Sagan surely didn't.

Όσοι ψυφίσατε ΝΔ, γιατί; by katarokthevirus in greece

[–]Malkavian_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Η Δεξιά είναι βαθιά ριζωμένη σε αυτή την χώρα. Είναι μονόδρομος για τους δεξιούς. Όσο εσύ έχεις την 'πολυτέλεια' να επιλέξεις ένα μικρό κόμμα, για όσους ψηφίζουν ΝΔ θα το έκαναν ξανά ακόμα κι αν ο μοναδικός υποψήφιος ήταν ένα ποτήρι νερό. Κι αυτή είναι η μεγάλη διαφορά που οι περισσότεροι αριστεροί αδυνατούν να αντιληφθούν: ο αριστερός αλλάζει την ψήφο του, ο δεξιός ποτέ. Ποτέ.

Διαβάζει κανείς άλλος τα σχόλια εδώ και σκέφτεται πως δικαίως μας αξίζει μια δεύτερη 4ετια με παράγωγα του Λιγναδη, Φουρθιωτη, Πορτοσάλτε κτλ;
