Music fans are so insecure. axnd yes i've done it too, lol. Mick I mean yeah I literally just did that about Nickelback, but I’m inclined to agree, at least in sentiment. People should be more open minded and receptive to people that break convention. except about Nickelback 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I didn't know where else to put this but this guy's YouTube channel is pretty good. He's works as a roadie a lot and he's also been both a merch and tour manager. He has a number of informative videos talking about the logistics of touring and what a pain in the ass it's become for bands post covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BastillePark Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I wonder if bands that have been around for a long time and are still going but never were very popular expect to eventually have a hit? Specifically thinking about Clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entre_Perpetuo Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Cliche doesn’t mean overrated. Smoke On The Water is one of the greatest songs ever. Easy top 5 riff. Easy top 5 solo. Absolutely impenetrable chorus. Classic arrangement. I want to highlight the solo though. The fact that Richie Blackmore is more of an improv guy than a sit down and write it out guy makes it even more impressive how perfectly this lead is phrased. A solo you feel compelled to sing along to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I had the opportunity to tour Inner Ear Studios in Alexandria yesterday evening. The very same house studio where all the early Dischord records bands recorded in the early 80s. Don is a lovely guy and very open to sharing about his work.

bluefox4000 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 There's no Prog like original pure 70's prog. I like certain prog metal but aside from DT....it's not the same for me. it's just muddy-ing up what was thrilling about OG prog for me. if you stranded me somewhere and someone said pick your prog it would all be 70's i was always more of a prog traditionalist anyway. Hell one of my fav prog albums is foxtrot and you know my feelings on Gabriel Genesis Mick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell one of my fav prog albums is foxtrot and you know my feelings on Gabriel Genesis Mick I think the thing is, most of what has comfortably fit the “prog” label since the end of the classic era has been prominently referential (if not just plain reverential) of the originators. Meanwhile, if Yes was ever trying to copy King Crimson, or even if Rush was ever trying to copy Yes, they really didn’t show it that obviously. This brings up the question of bands that probably do fit comfortably under a reasonable definition of progressive rock, but don’t really sound like the 70s stuff so they don’t often get called that. I think of a band like Black Country, New Road. Very exciting, very new, very progressive, not very much like the 70s. But they don’t really get labeled as such by most folks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These three records can go toe to toe with any of the British greats, and are from the same era with that same warm analogue production: Premiata Forneria Marconi - Per Un Amico (gentle pastoral with beautiful harmonies and whimsical flairs) Le Orme - Felona E Sorona (brooding synth trio with somber vocals and cosmic vibes) Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso - Darwin! (bombastic instrumental workouts and jams matched by a thrilling operatic singer) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick I have only dipped my toe into newer prog, and I haven't really been moved by any of it. Judging myself in relation to others on this site...I would say I'm in the minority in that Rush is just about the heaviest music I listen to - I am not really into metal at all. Because of that, some of the newer prog I've heard is heavier than I'm into. But I also think it comes down to songwriting, and I think what those bands you listed have in common (I'm not particularly into ELP, but I think they're good) is that they have good songwriting at their core. I think (biased, yes) that is particularly true for Genesis - like a lot of prog, it's not immediately catchy like pop songs are...but the melodies get inside you on repeated listening and are deep and beautiful. The end section of Supper's Ready is some of the most powerful, emotional songwriting (and performing) I've ever heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
