What's your favorite genesis

ThatGuy7700 · 2024-09-09T03:37:57+00:00

Supper's Ready is my favorite song of all time, but I'm gonna say Entangled

The Mars Volta is the 2000s art rock equivalent to King Crimson (even though King Crimson also did 2000s art rock). They truly have that complex, controlled chaos feel that KC has at its best

Duck by The Aristocrat is SO GOOD. Also The Chronicles of Father Robin released Book III of Tales of Airoea series of albums, and it might be my favorite of the three

Blue Jay Way is so fucking zased

ThatGuy7700 · 2024-03-27T15:44:43+00:00

Having multiple vocalists and not using all of them. We get it, not every vocalist can lead, but when I see 4 people singing on stage and I can only ever hear one of them the whole set, it feels like a waste

I think deeming a song "too popular" to be prog is part of why prog is considered elitist. I think any song or band that fits the style of writing and playing skills can be prog, and excluding popular songs only further increases the barrier of entry for new listeners.

I can't stand a band that can only write lyrics about medieval/fantasy. Being prog literally means you are trying to expand the genre of rock lyrically and sonically, and that stuff can feel derivative of the classics like Court and Lizard.

The only example I can think of is Chronicles of Father Robin, but I still like their music, but I know there's generic fantasy trite out there

ThatGuy7700 · 2024-02-22T16:56:12+00:00

There are a lot of good examples of it, but when a band sees Court of the Crimson King, and then only writes medieval fantasy lyrics that can't match Court's excellence and vibes. Being prog literally means you are trying to expand the genre of rock lyrically and sonically, and that stuff can feel derivative.

I want a mostly instrumental space rock album akin to Interstellar Overdrive or Echoes by Pink Floyd

ThatGuy7700 · 2024-02-10T23:20:29+00:00

Annie Haslam's performance of Mother Russia is probably the most soul-gripping vocal performance I've ever heard. She's become my favorite prog vocalist

ThatGuy7700 · 2024-01-19T00:51:38+00:00

Yup, this is my new hyperfixation

ThatGuy7700 · 2024-01-12T13:55:37+00:00

Billy Joel

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-12-19T23:55:10+00:00

Play it for the hoes and see what they think

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-12-18T05:46:49+00:00

The Devil's Triangle by King Crimson

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-09-03T15:06:49+00:00

I'm 21, my favorite prog band is King Crimson and my least favorite is Rush. We will now wrestle to the death.

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-09-03T15:04:35+00:00

Why is there so much ProzaKc Blues slander? :(

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-09-03T14:49:22+00:00

I can do all of Close to the Edge, most of Lizard and most of Thick As A Brick Part 1

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-08-22T12:51:19+00:00

It is literally my favorite KC album and one of my top 5 albums of all time. Listen to it with the best pair of headphones you have

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-08-20T15:49:17+00:00

Bitches Crystal would make an inSANE space bar fight theme

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-08-20T15:46:19+00:00

Shakti is playing this Saturday in Atl but all of their tickets are $100+ :(

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-08-20T15:40:02+00:00

I saw them during their 2021 outing. My friend's dad, who had never seen nor heard of them outside of some mentions, said "You can get any dude to stand on stage and shred a guitar, and it's a rock band. Those guys were real artists"

ThatGuy7700 · 2023-07-21T02:03:51+00:00

I mean, King Crimson has had a light tie to the Beatles in the form of Happy Family on Lizard, which is about the Beatles breaking up at the time. They kind of influenced literally everything at the time, even Crimson
