So I've finally joined Mastodon after being hassled by someone who will remain unnamed. Joined here to get away from the toxicity of other social media platforms. I'm mostly here to discuss music. I love all forms but particularly #heavymetal#shoegaze#krautrock#progrock#jazz#hiphop#hardcore. All forms of #metal really & I love #horrormovies
Hey, prog fan(s). Did you know that the rocks on the LP covers of Topographic Oceans and Relayer by Yes join up?
I've owned the albums for 40+ years and never noticed that before. I only spotted it by accident. #progrock#vinyl#graphicdesign#rock#illustration
Ooooh, #ProgRock#ProgMetal fans listen up - Caligula's Horse is releasing a new album in January. If you are not already listening to them, get with it. This band is fantastic.
Descartes a Kant--I'm impressed with their using these two philosophers in their band-name. Very cool, fun post-Devo video. Gary Numan influences? Muse? Metal meets electronica? References to game music? Tight musicianship. Bold, vintage references, sense of humor.
#introduction
Hello everyone
I'm new here. I love bicycle riding, nature, anime, prog rock, jazz fusion, classical music, city pop, surfing trough old style websites and more. Also like Japan and Japanese culture, mysteries and thriller movies and tv series.
Thats abour me for now.
F E A R is everywhere here
Under the patio
Under the hard-earned bought and paid-for home
Cushions, scented candles and the lawn
Mowing to the beat and the rumble of the coming storm
We all know about the wars that are raging
All the millions who just cannot see
There's so much more that binds us than divides us
But our f e a r denies it
While the papers stir it
The colours of the flag we wave
Were and will become blood red again
And the madmen all say they hear voices
God tells them what to do
The wars are all about money
They always were
And the money's dressed up in religion
And when it's not showing off, the money's hiding.
Something is cooking inside me...
It ain’t ready, but already…
I'm becoming harder to live with
Becoming harder to live with
You say I'm becoming harder to live with
I’m becoming harder to live with
But you can't see into my head
You can't see into my head
You can't see into my head
No, you can’t see into my head.
And the roads are full of weapons
That slide by in the night
Tanks all covered in yellow mud
Pass you on the motorway
As you drive by with the kids and the buckets and spades
Happy Days.
I don't think we've ever talked about Nili Brosh for #ProgTuesday. She's a very accomplished guitarist, who has performed or recorded with Danny Elfman, DragonForce, Cirque du Soliel, and many others. She has a few albums of solo work - all instrumental. Give them a listen.
Moody Blues cofounder Mike Pinder has died at age 82. Born in Birmingham, U.K., he was part of the city's vibrant music scene and formed the "Moodies" in 1964 with Graeme Edge, Ray Thomas, Clint Warwick, and Denny Laine. In 1967, the group recorded "Days of Future Passed," which is now considered to be the first prog rock album. Here's more from Variety.
#Marbles Turns 20 today. Marbles is quite an album with many a great tune on it. One of Marillion's best works I'd wager. Anyway, enjoy a taste of it here with Invisible Man.
As my progressive rock continues, I'm looking for more help from you fabulous people. YOu helped me yesterday with Hawkwind. So today's question is where should I start with Asia? #progrock? #progressiverock#classicrock
Io da ragazzo sentii #LarksTongueInAspic in ordine non cronologico (ovvero cominciai dal part2, che rimane la mia preferita oggi) ma quando sentii la prima parte, rimasi letteralmente folgorato
Another cultural pundit on TV last night dragging out the threadbare 'Punk was a response to Prog Rock' chestnut. When TV documentaries repeat this punk/prog cliche they always cherrypick Prog's most ludicrous moments (that many prog fans don't like either) to support the claim...
At the time, John Lydon, wore a 'I hate Pink Floyd' t-shirt. Punks also wore swastikas but were far from nazis. Lydon says it was a performative gesture...
So, Leute, dreht mal die Anlage auf 11.
Arjen Lucassen hat eben eine einmalige Live-Aufnahme von "The Day That The World Breaks Down" veröffentlicht, die letztes Jahr in Tilburg aufgezeichnet wurde.
Da es quasi unmöglich ist, alle Gastmusiker des Studio-Albums unter einen Hut zu bringen, war das Konzert zwar in etwas anderer Besetzung, aber nicht minder hochkarätig.
