NEAR THE END IS SUBJECTIVE STOP HATING WHAT I HATE

My wife Mordred is listening to her favorite prog album "The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table" because it's about her favorite person (who isn't me)

>>126881678 (OP)
Last Styx album with my old buddy JC. After that they ceased to be prog or any good.

RIP.

This fucking sucks actually

>>126882016
i believe you. ask me how i can tell

It's prog.

>>126882836
sounds way less shitty than magma so sure, why not

>>126882836

>>126881678 (OP)
Holy shit, that song is a bop.

>>126886643
True. Notice how there are multiple prog threads on the board? Styx absolutely filters /prog/. So be it, fuck anime fags and especially that Kita fag. Spit roast that retard.

How do you respond without sounding mad? >>126886714

>>126886931
You respond by agreeing with that anon.

>>126879824
they're shitting on fripp again

>>126886931
By pointing out that Bruford agrees.

>>126887353
Is that where all the /prog/ anons went after the weeb scared them away?

>>126886931
it's true
Discipline is a fine album, but nowhere near the heights of the band's previous incarnations
and after that they became sort of a parody of themselves
>>126887353
and they're right
fripp's an overrated hack

>>126887353

based fripp haters

my 60 year old mom likes Styx!

>>126881987
I have. They're not very good. They're not bad. The embodiment of forgettable soulless cookie cutter prog.

>>126888312
How does she feel about this stick? *points to my dick*

I hate Fripp so much bros

I love Fripp so much bros

>>126888799
I need to make one of those apology forms for Fripp

>>126888799
>HEADCANON
more like pretty well documented history
many of his former bandmates have talked shit about him, and he has fired brilliant musicians from the band
he even disbanded after reaching their creative peak, with Red, in 1974

How would you guys feel if I posted something like "I think Wishbone Ash should be considered honorary prog"

>>126888867
kek, nice fanfiction, are you also a furfag?

>>126889023
are you hitting on me? not really interested in your weird kinks, frippfag

I'm going to listen to The Power to Believe

>>126888867
Many of his former bandmates have also said how much they enjoyed and valued the challenge of working with him despite his combative personality. He pushed his musicians to greatness, and those that couldn't take the heat got pushed out of the band. It just depends on the egos and musical approaches involved.

>>126889541
your victimhood is showing

>>126889501
yeah, because they were unemployed
plus he had no place in calling himself band leader after the first album, seeing as he wasn't even the main composer or frontman of the band by then

>>126889654
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/W9E-lBbUkHU
>Fripp listens to my King Crimson/Taylor Swift mashup
>"why do I think of it? I think its superb"
Frippbros... it doesnt sit well with me that he might be a swifty

>>126889704
Sinfield didn’t actually do that much besides write the lyrics. Fripp did the actual hard work of assembling each lineup and producing the albums.

>>126889763
McDonald was the main composer and producer of the first album
fripp was just there, even Giles had more input than him

>>126889411
>Regarding his relationship with Robert Fripp, Muir wrote "Fripp was open and believed very much in getting disparate musical elements together ... he seemed to me to be a very good band leader. I think I was a wee bit too much for him, simply because I was so involved in improvisation. He was very much concerned with logic and function, he always worked his solos out before playing them ... For a person like him it was a very admirable creative decision to actually work with somebody like me."
>In summing up his experience with the band, Muir stated "King Crimson was the ideal for me ... I was extremely pleased and I felt completely at home with the Crimson."

Stanning band members and taking sides in their internal ego clashes is sissy fangirl behavior.

>>126889704
Bruford, Levin, Belew, Mastelotto unemployed. Yeah. Sure.

Fripp fired Adrian via email.
For that reason we know he's an asshole.

>>126890743
yeah
what would they be up to if not playing on KC?
also, I do believe Fripp might have mellowed out since his early years
from what I know, the biggest frictions he had with bandmates were before the Lark's years

why does every prog thread eventually becomes about KC or Magma? are other bands not that engaging?

>>126889763
that's why ITCOTCK is their least good pre-80s album

>>126891677
pretty much, the other bands don't have the esoteric lore of Magma, or the fangirl drama of King Crimson members.

>>126891831
Gong is arguably more autistic than Magma
and Yes, Jethro Tull and Genesis have just as much drama as KC

>>126881678 (OP)
Doesnt pretty much every metal band have a random 5-10 minute long epic song that would count as prog?

>>126891881
>Gong is arguably more autistic than Magma
Yeah, that's true.

>fangirl drama of King Crimson members.
it's mostly just fripp circlejerk. i don't see any juicy drama on belew or friends

>>126895646
I can tell you are seething

>>126895646
he's the ugly angry autistic manlet we all love to hate
everyone else is more or less a reasonable human being, but he's kind of a cartoon character

>>126892270
venom has a 20 minute epic that's unironically better than most legitimate prog metal

>>126891881
>Gong is arguably more autistic than Magma
people don't care about the autistic lore
they care because the autistic lore is nazi inspired

What would you call the clast movement of "La mente vola"? A synth fantasy?

Fripp hears you talkin shit

Fripp sucks ass

The question was about bands that have released a prog song (even if they aren't prog).

well more specifically
>a random 5-10 minute long epic song that would count as prog?

>>126898363
yes, just wanted to point out that "the end" and "when the music is over" are not prog.
I have seen people write about how mothers of invention freak out is prog cause it has a long song. Long song does not equal prog

>>126898384
I suspect long songs are more likely to be made into prog because sometimes you have to spice things up to keep them interesting.

>>126898384
nobody said they were, retard
kill yourself

How do you define prog?
I'd say abandoning conventional verse chorus (with a single bridge) song structure plays a roll.

>>126897023

The post appears to be a mix of frustration and insults, likely directed at someone for not listening to or appreciating certain types of music, such as classical or jazz. The use of misspellings and slang suggests a strong emotional response, possibly anger or annoyance. Overall, it conveys a sense of disrespect towards the recipient and a dismissive attitude towards their musical preferences.

lets see what some people say about "Freak Out!" (1966)
Review by Finnforest
>"While some continue to insist that Crimson created prog in 1969 it's my opinion that these earlier works are the true conception even if some want to write them off as "just psychedelia" or whatever."
Review by Rune2000
>"This debut album by Frank Zappa & the Mothers of Invention was quite a revolutionary release for its time and can be considered an important cornerstone of Proto-Prog."
Review by Slartibartfast
>"Forget about The Moody Blues and King Crimson. The first prog album to come out was in 1966."
Review by TCat
>"There are a few hints of progressive rock, even though it wasn't a genre yet,"

>>126894800
>As long as it's not prog metal, yes
are you saying prog metal doesnt count as prog?

>>126898818
Yes

>>126898951
why?

>>126898969
In light of the intricate linguistic hierarchy, one must acknowledge that the moniker "Prog" operates as a truncated version of "Prog Rock," which, in turn, is a diminutive of the more expansive "Progressive Rock." Conversely, the designation "Prog Metal" emerges as a shorthand for "Progressive Metal." Yet, it is imperative to elucidate that the abbreviation "Prog" is solely tethered to "Prog Rock," thereby creating a peculiar dichotomy wherein "Prog" does not extend its abbreviated reach to the realm of "Prog Metal," despite the apparent thematic kinship.

>>126898969
NTA but metal is terrible so its better if it doesnt get associated with prog

how do you rank prog subgenres?
to me:

GOAT
>Folk
Amazing
>Symphonic
>Canterbury Scene
>Eclectic
Great
>Italian
>Krautrock
>Fusion
Cool
>Crossover
>Zeuhl
Aight
>Neo prog
>RIO
>Heavy
Meh
>Electronic
Shit
>metal and anything related

>>126899410
why is it shit?

>>126899410
a lot of music is a combination of those subgenres, tho

>>126899422
I don't really like it, it's shit to me
>>126899427
yeah, I went mainly by progarchives categorization, but there are a lot of intersections among these

>>126899608
>moonchild is perfect. but even if it wasn't, moonchlid wasn't even his idea
moonchild is the first wanky KC tune that comes to mind, but there are others
Providence, half of Devil's Triangle, half of Lizard, The Mincer, Starles and Bible Black...
plus, his terrible solo on Ladies of the Road
what the fuck was he thinking?

>>126897829
Baby's on Fire.

>>126899633
>Providence
amazing tense atmospheric jam
>Mincer/SABB
amazing tense atmospheric jams
>half of Devil's Triangle
the backhalf is so loud and discordant because that's supposed to be the big climax of the album
>half of Lizard
alright I'm with you on this one, it totally didn't need to be more than 15 minutes, unforced error by fripp & co.
>Ladies of the Road
one of the best blues songs I've ever heard, even if the guitar is admittedly not robert's best work.
I feel like by adding shit like Providence or Starless and Bible Black to albums, he tried to recapture the beauty of Moonchild. Obviously none of those are as good as Moonchild but they're still great and thematically-fitting in their own right

>>126896296
>venom has a 20 minute epic that's unironically better than most legitimate prog metal

I've listened to it but I didnt really remember much of it. I think i was distracted at the time.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=aJktLobKNU8

>Providence
lol

>>126899818
>amazing tense atmospheric jam
feels disjointed to me, could use work
>amazing tense atmospheric jams
same. Most of the time they feel aimless, and not as cohesive or interesting as their best works
honestly, SAAB as a whole album should have taken longer in the studio
the production on it stinks, and this was the band at their creative peak
lots of brilliant ideas in the album don't get the chance to properly shine because they didn't take their time to fully develop them
sounds like a demo album or studio bootleg at times
>the backhalf is so loud and discordant because that's supposed to be the big climax of the album
not quite, it is a live arrangement of a classical piece
it really has a charm, and sounds cool and menacing in the context of the album, but just as the previous examples, it meanders aimlessly, and should have been better worked in the studio
the whole album kind of tried repeating the formula of their debut, which turned it into an underwhelming mess
Cat Food is the best song in there for the single reason of being unique and interesting
>even if the guitar is admittedly not robert's best work.
it's the shittiest part of an otherwise brilliant tune
Fripp disliked the song and lyrics, so it wouldn't be far-fetched to admit he kind of shoehorned that lame lazy solo
>thematically-fitting in their own right
thematically-fitting sure, but not quite as well written or interesting

>>126896296
What do you think of Manowar's 30 minute "epic"?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0AnLvPs6JE

>>126899613
The only reason I'd ever suggest someone to watch the movies over the anime is because of this song. I know its just a rip off of lizard but it works so well. Makes me cry everytime.

>>126900139
Not prog and utter faggotry.

>>126900235
what makes venom's good, and manowar's bad?

>>126899613
>>126900166
tangent since we're not really talking about prog anymore but I prefer the song that plays in the TV series rather than the movie version tbdesu

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0Yf9bbk_v8

Is Gundam /prog/?

>>126892270
>long song = progressive

>>126900328
I never said Venom was good.

>>126899410
same except i'd put Zeuhl in Goat or Amazing

>>126901102
Zeuhl as a whole kind of falls off hard after you listen to the 4 or 5 most well known bands (who are genuinely good) and even then there's a huge gap in quality between Magma and the next best band.

There isn't really some obscure hidden zeuhl gem out there

>>126901237
>There isn't really some obscure hidden zeuhl gem out there

>>126900765
Being long doesn't make it progresive automatically, but when you try to make an "epic" song you are usually making a song that tries to start in one place and go somewhere else.

>>126901269
yes, that's correct

>>126902175
>only prog can make epics
gee. i wonder why this fanbase constantly gets misconstrued as ignorant and pretentious.

I just realized that the only prog bands I really like are Pink Floyd, Genesis, Yes, and King Crimson. Everyone else I either dislike or am indifferent to. Am I a poser?

>>126902602
No you're a soulful enjoyer of the only good prog.

>I’ll be there!
>I’ll be there!
>I WILL BE THERE!

>>126902630
i've started saying this in actual conversations and now people look at me funny :(

>>126902455
How would you make an "epic" song like that which wouldn't be prog?

Wait...it's prog?

>>126903363

>>126902816
it’s proggy

>>126902816
no, it's pretty straightforward rock
not everything is prog just because it's long, odd timed, has unusual instruments or has a concept

>>126903590
Whats even the point of genres then

>>126903629
nothing, the only "genres" that matter are ones like "Classical", "Jazz", "Rock", "Pop" anything more specific then that is just nonsense

>>126903590
>not everything is prog just because it's long, odd timed, has unusual instruments or has a concept

>>126903182
>please listen to more fucking music, dear fucking christ
Could you answer the question.

To be clear i'm talking about "epic" as a style of song. Like ballad or power ballad is a style of song. I'm not using epic as a statement of quality in this context.

>>126905107
>Uriah Heep
Yeah they have a bunch like that.
I dont remember much of salisbury in the context of how it was structured, but the song is interesting because its a 16 minute love song with an actual orchestra and a rock band.

It may be worth noting that uriah heep (along with deep purple and black sabbath) are actually on progarchives.

Recommend me something choral and epic like MDK. I'm looking for something similar, but tbqh I feel like even other magma albums lack this trancy feeling and this epic culmination at the end

>>126903809

>>126924505
>A Passion Play
I don't know, TaaB sort of mocks (and mogs) the entire genre of that time, while APP feels like exactly the type of music TaaB makes fun of. Maybe I should give it another go, though.

>>126924526
I've only listened Hemispheres so far, and while their technical provess is undeniable, they tend to have sort of "plastic" sound.

Nine Feet Underground is quite fascinating. It's hard to believe that not a single hip-hop producer has sampled the Dance of the Seven Paper Hankies part (or VdGG's Theme One, for that matter).

What are the best KC live shows from their Red period?
I've been listening to their July 1st show in Central Park. The playing is very good, but sadly the recording quality is somewhat scuffed.

>>126926595
Let them all be erased and pretend KC ended with Three of a Perfect Pair

>>126926765
Apollo Glasgow, Night Watch Amsterdam, Live at the Beat Club. Central Park is a great one too, love Cerberus

fripp is a retard and KC should have ended before it became a parody of itself

>>126927335
agreed
I hate fripp so much bros

anybody who got filtered by TCOL and TPTB should give pic rel and Heavy ConstruKction a spin. in my case most of the tracks in those records didn't click until i listened to them live.
the percussion and guitar work in those two live recordings are fucking goated, man.

What is it about King Crimson that makes some people so passionately factional

>>126927621
Well their sound differs a lot between each lineup, doesn't it?
I love the Wetton era and their early 00s output, but couldn't care less about the stuff they made with Boz.

>>126927535
no reason to listen to a kc album after discipline
>>126927621
everyone loves the band's best efforts, but some people misdirect that affection to fripp, although he's not at all responsible for their greatest works

>TaaB sort of mocks (and mogs)
It really doesn't hold up, it's fine, but the whole "satirical" angle feels misguided when you consider that most of what they "satirize" (aside from "long songs") only applies to a couple of bands, The mockery of long songs is also stupid, as music has always included lengthy pieces, Classical, Jazz, and Folk often feature compositions that exceed 10 minutes. Yet, for some reason, people seem to get upset when it comes to Rock. Musically, it's just average; it's essentially folky dad rock with a flute, regardless, Songs From The Wood is far better and probably their best.

>fripp, although he's not at all responsible for their greatest works
i find it funny when someone brings up the similarities between Bartok and ITCOTCK it's "Fripp ripped off Bartok" it's always Fripp's fault, but when we are talking about how good it is it's always "Fripp had nothing to do with it" pick one, retards.

it was Talking Heads, but with complicated guitar patterns, very different

The only KC that sort of clicked for me.

Why does /prog/ hate Pierce the Veil?

>>126931110
b'boom into thrak is a great segue

>>126931191
sometimes

>>126931080
so do Hackett, Holdsworth, Barre, Zappa, Belew, Hillage, Gilmour, Lifeson, Hastings, Rothery, Petrucci, Akkerman, Rundgren...
as far as prog guitarists go, he's nowhere near the most skilled

>>126931191
Damn, what a dismal turnout.

no

funkadelic is more prog than post belew crimson

i can't believe pretending to hate Fripp here caused a bunch of 12 year olds to pretend to hate Fripp to seem "cool" lel fucking faggots, Fripp is one of the greatest Rock musician up there with Beethoven, Bruckner, Scriabin, Bartok, Medtner, Schubert, Haydn etc.

Sorry dude but you're 60 years old. Please go back to your facebook group :)

Fripp sucks lol

Fripp fucks lol

Hackett is better than Tony

>>126939232
not even the best guitar player in his own band

Snow Goose and Camel in general are incredibly mediocre. I don't understand the hype behind them. Earthrise is literally their only good song. Everything else is the most boring piece of boring since boring came to boretown.

self deprecating meme.

long rock songs are great.

>>126948032
so does toyah relieve tension with.. external help?
don't get me wrong i love the fripper, he's an inspiration and a real genius, but i literally unironically cannot picture him having sex. that's all.

1. this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeasfoQrnLI
2. Giles Giles and Fripp (yes seriously)
3. Brian Eno's rock albums
4. Fripp and Eno
5. Solo works and the League of Gentlemen >>126950787

>>126943453
one of those situations where a band is underrated due to being too popular. Started off doing the typical thing where their 'long songs' were just a series of shorter songs but later became probably one of the best at efficiently integrating their musical ideas into often quite novel structures without becoming directionless virtuoso showpieces. Suspect they had a chip on their shoulder to prove themselves since prog never had the same period of popular and critical success in NA.

>>126950995

raises a good question
how would you guys rank prog guitarists?
and who is number 1?
Howe is my favorite, but I'd rank Fripp very close to him due to his very unique style

>>126949333
>i literally unironically cannot picture him having sex

Apparently "Ladies of the Road" was Sinfield making fun of Fripp for catching an STD off hippie sluts on the US leg of the ITCOTCK tour

Name an artist with a more bland name, look and discography?

Literally nothing about this man says: Listen to my music.

I know it's a meme that google is so enshittified that you're better off just searching reddit for what you need, but I never find what I need from reddit either. Either the discourse is too cringe to trudge through or any thread on the topic just died before getting an answer.
