I've listened to "Tales..." a few times, and it's obvious high-class of musicality doesn't detract from it's severe lack of actual decent songs. For me, Van den Graaf Generator did thing thing far, far better. However, PunkFact: Keith Levine (early Clash/Public Image Limited) absolutely worshipped Steve Howe's axework.

No Pussyfooting is a far better album than Topographical Oceans.

^^^Word to the muvva on that call. Especially when heard on 16RPM with a stinking hangover - seriously good stuff.

Everyneurotic · 06.05.2008, 04:41 PM

i think vdgg are very saccharine for my taste, i like to listen to pawn hearts every couple of years. whereas i can listen to "close to the edge" the song many times in a row all year long.

smelly: also pat smear from the germs, the intro to "no god" is him playing the last part of the intro to "roundabout".

and i'm not too fond of prog either, i don't like genesis, don't like jethro tull, don't like emerson lake and palmer. i like yes, crimson and some other not too well known bands from the era (like virus).

MellySingsDoom · 06.05.2008, 04:46 PM

Not really "prog" per se, but perhaps should be included anyway:

i like king crimson, magma, and henry cow. and brutal prog.

atsonicpark · 06.05.2008, 06:26 PM

Most of the popular prog bands were pretty shitty, though stuff like gentle giant was really good, despite the vocals... and obviously, Crimson..

As far as avant-prog (Thinking Plague, Henry Cow, and the like) and "brutal" prog (Koenjihyakkei, Happy Family, Korekojin, Demi Semi Quaver, the amazing and underrated Dun) and shit, that stuff's CONSTANTLY blowing my mind... My favorite prog band was probably Hoyry-Kone...

some of the "noise" in was alright but he really needs to put that microphone down. or have his vocal chords removed. one of the two.
