From what I can hear, it has a clearer and drier sound with more bleed, closer to the original mix, and fixes some of the “bolder” (putting it politely) choices of the 2007 mix.

nope. the basis of it is good, but the resamples and reprises that are most of the 2nd half really bog it down bad
>>
>>129210932
pic unrelated. but seriously, any of the 90s symphonic prog revival would probably take the cake. (nu-)kaipa, the flower kings, spock's beard, glass hammer, transatlantic, karmakanic,
>>

really? lol, i wish i could find that stuff/neo prog i heard euphoric, i try sometimes but, that damn mental block of 90s production... it's like a permanent suspension of disbelief, but for music

Saw Uriah Heep today on their Magician’s Farwell tour. First prog (-ish) band I’ve seen live and it was an awesome show, even if Mick Box was ill and couldn’t make it
>>
>>129211994
yeah. i guess euphoria wasn't the right word i was thinking of. for some reason i thought it meant basic cheer and happiness. i still contend roine stolt (in various bands) should be in the contention for most euphoric.

It would've been cool for KC to have done a 50th anniversary tour with tons of cameos from the various lineups coming out to play songs from their respective eras. The documentary was already happening by then so Fripp had more or less made truces with the likes of Giles and Belew and others, so it was probably doable.

>>
>>129252853
Most of my favorite low-rated albums are pop albums put out by prog bands. And since it's a prog website, pop albums should have low ratings, even if it's good music. Invisible Touch takes the cake at 2.52.

If you're looking at reviled albums that most will still admit is prog, but just bad, then it's The Astonishing by Dream Theater at 3.22.

For the most part, I am very much a prog normie. In 99% of cases when rating a prog album, my personal rating is within 1 star of progarchives'.

Anyone else enjoy Derek Sherinian's solo albums? I don't really care about Dream Theater at all, but his solo stuff (which may as well be an outright collaboration with Simon Phillips since he plays on, co-writes and produces most of it) is some great jazzy prog wank.

A trainwreckord is supposed to be an album that's either so bad or bombs so hard that it tanks the artist's career or at least sets it back a ways, a creative and often commercial fumble that does longterm damage to one's reputation and popularity. It's not meant to be just any misstep or sellout in a band's discography. The Pink Floyd, Moody Blues and even Yes albums were pretty popular and in at least two cases actually revitalized the bands' careers even if they divided the fans. A few of the others are notorious but not very important in their bands' long and illustrious stories. Calling All Stations and Love Beach are textbook examples though.

I actually think Giant for A Day is decent. It's a better attempt at doing something "mainstream" than the Missing Piece at least.

>With all due respect to the people who went out and bought those records, they are just rubbish. Particularly The Division Bell; it's just nonsense from beginning to end. A Momentary Lapse of Reason had a couple of really nice tunes on it that, had I still been in the band, those chord sequences and melodies would have been made it onto a record that I was involved in. But conceptually and lyrically, it's just rubbish, partly because it's not true. It's like, "Let's try and write songs that sound as if they're Pink Floyd and make records that sound like Pink Floyd records."

My favorite Rog spergout is when he chastised Billboard for changing its rules for the album chart so old catalog albums wouldn't hang around indefinitely and keep newer albums out. Of course his only concern was that DSOTM wouldn't be in the charts anymore and that bruised his ego for some reason.

>was he a studio musician before joining Pink Floyd?
He had a blues band that never made it but still managed to last a couple of years and record a couple of songs
https://youtu.be/Zrn1rSKifRE
>how did he meet the guys?
He was an old friend of Syd and one day he invited him to the studio. When Syd started to become a problem, the rest of the band asked him to play his parts on gigs, and the rest is history.

>A Momentary Lapse of Reason had a couple of really nice tunes on it that, had I still been in the band

>Let me put it this way: They made a live video of one of their shows a few years ago, and I thought it was really awful. It became obvious to me that they never understood any of it at all. And neither did quite a large number of the great unwashed -- as long as there are lots of lights going off, and they can recognize the tunes, they're relatively happy.
>I just don't think they understand the songs or what they're about. If you read old interviews, they actually say that. I can remember interviews from Dark Side where Rick was saying, "We really don't care about the lyrics." They remain connected to the numbers, the money, and so that's what you get, that's what you feel through it all.
>What you don't feel is the connection with the magic, because there isn't any. The working relationship I had with Dave and Nick and even Rick to a certain extent up to and including Dark Side of the Moon was very exciting and interesting and worthwhile, but after that it became very problematic. We'd done everything we had set out to do, and we kind of clung together from that point on in a very uneasy marriage because of the name, because it was easy, and we'd created an enormous audience.

Sounds like video game music from the 90s. Mildly good, but I'd never seek it out. A Change of Seasons is the only song he's recorded that I thoroughly enjoyed. The rest of the EP sucks, and so does Falling into Infinity.

>love Ashes Are Burning and Scheherezade
both good albums. i feel like they really needed someone to tell them to calm the fuck down though, a lot of songs would've benefited from just a bit more structure. even by prog standards, they can get pretty aimless
i think azure d'or is pretty underloved and one of the better prog sellout albums
>>
>>129282580
I think they're a really good and under-appreciated band, but sometimes the meticulously composed neo-classical style and Annie's particular way of singing can get a little overbearing after a while of continuous listening.

I haven't found another band which sounds similar. Other djent bands have vocalists for one thing.
>>
>>129284112
That doesn't answer the question
>>
>>129282580
as much as I enjoy some of their most dense and crafted music, I think they could have benefited for sticking to a simpler folk-rock sound, like they had on most of Ashes
the orchestral stuff can be overbearing at times

>>129285381

Thank God. Stop torturing the threads with these shit bands.

what i feel with prog and the rejection of it is that it's like a broken promise.
Beatles go psychedelic, Day in the life etc, so then it's 'oh, with the studio a song can really be anything'...
then King Crimson explodes, setting the bar for what can be done with a Mellotron, Yes are just there ready to go, Genesis, etc...
it sorta works for a quick few years, but by the time other countries really get into it like Italy and the Scandinavians, then all of a sudden 'yeah well thanks but no thanks we don't want that anymore'

The funniest is that "Critical Reactions" neckbeard who's allegedly a trained composer who says he's been studying music his whole life then when he's shown something really basic and common like The Beatles or John Coltrane or Beethoven he's all dumbfounded, "what's this!? what's going on!?"

Fuck it, I don't care if you call me Tony, Hackett was a stubborn, high-maintenance brat who could never be satisfied. He contributed a good amount of writing to Trick of the Tail and Wind & Wuthering, even having a productive collaboration with Banks on a few tracks, but I guess that wasn't enough. He does one solo album and suddenly thinks all his throwaway ideas are too precious to compromise in a democratic band. He was just as whiny and obstinate in GTR too which tells you all you need to know.
