prog sucks unless it's sporkcore. Zappa and Gong proved this 50 years ago

juice, my wank is quite gaseous

>Zappa and Gong
>better than Genesis, Yes and Pink Floyd
posers actually believe this

>>129995367
>quirky spork core
Both these albums sound like elevator music

peoples feelings are hurt by good music/artists these days

>>129995367
Both these albums are very disappointing and don't live up to the hype unfortunately. Greep is significantly better though.

Because no one is making prog anymore. It's literally a dead genre.
The New Sound is basically theater kid music and Vagina de Poutine is gimmicky Krautrock.

>>129995391
Dawg Frank Zappa is the best.

I'm still listening to crimson. Sorry

It really is that simple. Someone has to be making up the new things or we'd never have had prog in the first place

Can you shut the fuck up?

All hipsters are unmusical.

fpbp
also Magma

>>129995367
Clown Pyramid is a costume performance. The wackiness is the fun; the grooves are the foundation. The real gem about them is they can play their instruments. They are probably driving the hardest grooves since Tool's EP Opiate.

>>129996692
How is the music itself gimmicky?

>>129996726
Zappa is soulless wanking

Whats quirky spork about Georgie Greep?

>>130001084
He's british

>>129995367
Hipsters dont exist anymore, these are just normie tiktoker kids that follow these bands.

>>130001084
his constant use of swear words to make him sound less like a trust fund kid

>>129997730
the extensive use of loops restricts how the songs can be composed compared to a full band playing

>>130002078
Fair critique, but that isn't a gimmick, and lots of bands use loops.

The looping part is the most horrible one. It really chops up the music, not that they had that much talent available, but still.

>no one is making prog anymore. It's literally a dead genre
So we are just gonna pretend Steven Wilson, Haken, Riverside, King Gizzard and Opeth don't exist?

Just caved and finally listened to Angine de Poitrine, they're not bad but they just remind me of Fripp's League of Gentlemen. I don't get all this talk about them having a super revolutionary sound.

These two bands are not even remotely comparable. One of them is British theater kid Windmill slop and the other is actually just solid prog but they wear funny costumes

>>130003314
>angine de poitrine
>solid prog
not a single thing stands out to me in their entire repertoire, it's just like yeah i kinda dig this, kind of a one trick pony, cool outfits, the microtonal thing is cool but they don't do much with it beyond this sort of middle eastern rattlesnake sounding thing, not a lot of variation.

greep & his bands are on a different level entirely, he's hit or miss but is almost always doing something unique & memorable & the absolute musicianship is just undeniable, especially if you've seen the band live. i danced like i didn't know it was humanly possible to dance at their recent nyc show, i'm talking about interpretive skanking to 7/4 polyrythms

>>129995367
Prog honestly isn't so daunting when you realize bands like Yes literally stitched different jams together in the studio.

No need to get silly with it. Just come up with a bunch of cool parts, find a way to make them fit together, and unleash the dam.

>>129995367
Why don't you just recommend some other modern prog?

>>130004180
Black Midi

>>130003314
>solid prog but they wear funny costumes
*solid math rock but they wear funny costumes

>>130002293
they might as well not exist as all their releases (bar the occasional King Gizzard experiment) is the same boring slop that we’ve heard for decades now

>>130002173
it's electronic music played by hand with rock instruments.
so unheard of… maybe we could it… post-rock?

>>130002293
>prog metal
Really picking low hanging fruit, huh?

For me it's this. Dropped like 2 months ago

Classic prog rock was the quirky spork core of its day. Nobody likes most modern "vanilla" prog because it's not nearly as daring, innovative or nearly as weird and outlandish as classic prog rock was relative to its time. Hence why the modern prog rock that does stand out and rated highly ends up being avant-garde, quirky, or whatever.

>>130002134
>Look mum, i posted it again!

>>130002293
These are all legacy acts. No one cares about them anymore.

>>130004139
Yes is a bad example because they literally did not do this and were famous for not being a jam band. Something like CAN or certain King Crimson songs would fit that assertion better.

>>129995367
>prog
not music

wow rock fucking sucks now lmao. glad i finally evolved into classical

>>130005161
