What should I get from ELP? Already have Trilogy, ELP and Tarkus.

>>53288853
That's more than enough ELP

Although some people would say Brain Salad as well

>>53288853
>>53288897
How bad is ELP?

>>53288720
I think people usually stop on Jethro Tull
>IIII'l make love to you
dun dun dun dun-dun-dun
>In all good plaaaaaces

get some canterbury scene.
also drop ELP and Rick Wakeman, they aren't worth it

>>53289280
Pretty bad, but have moments of decency, unlike a lot of today's wank-core bands. I blame them and Wakeman for killing prog by going too far with pretentious shit

>>53289598
ELP seems to be unnecessary/derivative/a bad version of other bands, I agree with that
But Rick Wakeman actually makes something different.
Also, how do I get into Canterbury?

>>53289648
>But Rick Wakeman actually makes something different.
Aimlessly slapping an organ until all the notes overlap and make a rather disgusting mess of tones may be different, but it ain't good.

>>53289694
Well, it's been some time I heard it. Probably need to hear it again nwo

>>53288550

Is Riverside good?

What are the worthwhile pink floyd albums?

Is Steve Howe solo any better?

>>53289819

Kind of

Try these
The Mars Volta - Frances The Mute
The Mars Volta - Deloused In The Comatorium
Rishloo - Feathergun
Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing
Tool - Lateralus

>>53289788
Yes
>>53289818
Piper, Dark Side, Wish You Were Here. Check out the rest if you're a big fan, but most are variants on the same theme
>>53289819
Of course not

>>53289818
Basically everything before the Wall, I guess

>>53289818

>>53289854
Agreed. Also,
Omar Rodriguez Lopez - Old Money
Omar Rodriguez Lopez - Doatimashite (live)
Unicorn Porn - The White Stag
Closure In Moscow - Pink Lemonade

There's a lot of great contemporary Prog-rock actually. OP should listen to more new stuff!

>>53288412
Needs more Gentle Giant

>>53290572
Isn't Gentle Giant the typical Anglo-prog though?

>>53290513
>Closure In Moscow - Pink Lemonade
Counter-recommending this. No one should sit through such shit

>>53290627
Not really typical, they're like Genesis but with a bit more outside influence. Touch of avant-prog, a bit of canterbury. Famous for really interesting a cappella segments

What do you think of Thrak? To me it's not on par with their best, but still a fantastic album.

>>53290513
>Unicorn Porn - The White Stag
Can I get a link for this?

Yes I checked the sticky and soulseek.

>>53290746
Points for trying but it's not really all that interesting. Extra points for making something relatively decent in the prog vacuum that was the 90's

If not I'm sure there's a link somewhere in the archive.

>>53290741

>>53290903

>ctrl+f
>no comus
I don't know why they don't get any love around here. They're a really interesting blend of psych folk and prog rock.

>>53291078
they get a whole lotta love in general
can do a couple threads without em, eh?

Where has grorious nipponese progrockku been hiding all this time?

>>53291099
I've seen them posted maybe once on here, sans the times I've posted about them.

>>53291078
They get so much love around here, dude. It just gets boring it people bring them up every time.

>>53291118
Seriously? My count would be well over a hundred now, it's one of the few prog albums /mu/ as a whole discusses.

>>53291078
dude, Comus is not good. I can't believe you assholes talked me into listening to that.

And, yeah it get's talked about and praised here constantly. I think it's just because it uses folk instrumentation primarily.

>>53291078
Someone recommended it right here>>53288720

>>53291193
Hey it's that one guy who doesn't like Comus

How are you doing, that one guy who doesn't like Comus

You're the only one, by the way.

>>53291193
>I think it's just because it uses folk instrumentation primarily.
Also because, you know, it's fucking dope?
