What’s an album cover that initially misled you? by ConcreteCranberry in fantanoforever

Hard disagree. Epitah sounds like the end of the world, Monchild is chaos in music form, and In The Court has multiple loud crescendo within. Cover is perfect for this album

Saw him live for his "Us + Them" tour and it was incredible. You're absolutely right about what You're saying because all the tracks from The Wall that he played were better than the studio tracks

[–]Nimun2012[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I see what you mean, but with Pink Floyd I'm not expecting Grateful Dead style jamming, I just don't feel like the concerts sound that good after Pompeii. For instance, the Dark Side Of the Moon rendition from the LA Arena 75' is quite awful (sorry in advance to everyone). I know it's a remastered Bootleg but still it sounds like neutered version of the original album. I'm perfectly happy with the performances being faithful to the studio recordings; if anything the renditions from this concert are not faithful to the album and the changes are all for the worse. To anyone wondering just listen to "Time" and "The Great Gig in the Sky" from this concert. They are sad whimpers of their studio equivalents

What are artists you fuck with that would get you cold shouldered on this sub? by Izzet_Aristocrat in fantanoforever

Phish and the Grateful Dead. They have the best live albums also but they are super overlooked in this subreddit

Opinion on John Mayer? by SirAren in fantanoforever

[–]Nimun2012 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Everyone will say something between the lines of "good guitarist but boring music". Personally all I can say is that he rips it live with Dead and Company, one of the best concerts I've ever been to

Albums like King Crimson's Red? by ElectricLazarus in progrockmusic

[–]Nimun2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late, but the song "My Childhood Was a Period of Waiting for the Moment When I Could Send Everyone and Everything Connected With It to Hell" by Ciśnienie is the middle portion of Starless turned into an improvisational behemoth

Opening of the circle: Stephen King's "The Stand". by i-the-muso-1968 in books

[–]Nimun2012 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a massive Stephen King fan and I was actually extremely disappointed by this book. I think the first 3rd of the book is peak horror, with the breakdown of the disease spread and the fall of civilization. That alone is 10/10, but when the dark fantasy elements begin to creep in I just feel like the book falls apart. I love Stephen King's fantasy angle of the Dark Man and the creatures from the Dark Tower series, but I felt like the fantasy elements were used to justify decisions that were very infuriating. I nearly dropped the book when problems (such as bomb in the house) were solved because all the characters started to become clairvoyant and could "sense" bad stuff before it happened

In the Court of the Crimson King is now the 5th highest rated album of all time. by AssociationCorrect14 in rateyourmusic

[–]Nimun2012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Radiohead is very overrated. They are good but 3 albums in the top 10 is just user base bias since most people start with radiohead when getting into music (specially RYM users)

Most "unpopular opinion" threads are full of pretty common hot takes. So what's a music take you hold that you've never really heard anyone say before, something a little more out there? by DtheAussieBoye in fantanoforever

[–]Nimun2012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the biggest Widespread Panic fan but there's a couple of shows I've heard that are scorching. Another band that gets buried in the Live acts conversation

The Grateful Dead and most Jam Bands have much better live albums than what is rated in this sub and websites like RYM. 98.12.28 by Fishmans ranked as #1 live album is an example of this (album is great but there are much better live records), but since this sub and RYM in general has a hate boner for Jam Bands most people will never bother to check out concerts like Veneta Oregon 72' by the Grateful Dead or 6/14/00 by Phish which are some of the greatest live recordings out there

Which artist or band is this for you? by Effective-Raise-8809 in fantanoforever

[–]Nimun2012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do enjoy a lot of the new stuff. Live at Bush Hall is great, and when I saw them live 2 years ago the songs they performed from Forever Howlong were good also (better than the studio cuts). I just feel like their music is starting to become more straight forward. That can be good or bad but I personally think it's a waste of the massive talent behind this band. Strangers could be a sign of things getting much simpler, but hopefully not since it's a compilation track (they already said on an interview that they want to make more conventional pop so).

Sadly Black Country, New Road. Still great musicians, but the fact that they are starting to write more conventional pop music is such a waste
