I tend to confuse the Jethro Tull abbreviation with Timberlake's. I'll hear someone say JT and ask surprisingly "you know Jethro Tull?" Then I'll get a look as if I'M the one who's crazy.

I listen to a lot of non-prog.  But for me it would go something like I DON LISEN DIS DIS IS STEAMING PILE OF POO.  Wink
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this doesn't spawn a subgenre of pop.

most Krautrockers use two chords max and play them way longer than 9 mins. Plus the song we're talking about has the ending part with three more chords


Kraurock isn't for me then! and like Hemispheresof Xanadu says I hope this does not spawn a Pop genre called PropSick

Timberlake's long songs were much closer to Kanye West (Runaway), Radiohead's Paranoid Android, and techno/trance sessions, than they were to prog. Basically it was just longer, not much more than that.

That statement applies to very few here. Most of us listen to non-prog, but think the idea of Justin Timberlake's newest being prog, regardless of track length, is ridiculous. Some of us like him, some of us don't. I don't, but it has nothing to do with him not being prog.

That live track is not prog of any kind that I know.  Even to compare it with Paranoid Android would be to drag down the complexity of that track as the latter has more changes within a much shorter length.  I remember somebody once said Yaani's Live at the Acropolis was proggy.  I didn't agree then but that Timberlake track did make Yaani sound proggy by comparison.

But Saga ripped off Cusicks cover ...same picture composition. But Cusicks cover looks a bit silly so maybe it was worth reusing the idea. They added Einstein , made it black and white. They had reasons for the 20/20 theme ,because of a risky eye surgery that the keyboardist went through, and it was their 20th studio album.

Otherwise they could have ripped off this..


Not sure if this is a rip off of the picture tou posted, but it is extremely similar

Discuss

Long songs have been on the rise. Burial started doing longer tracks, as did Kanye West. Burial's Kindred featured two songs over 11 minutes long (one of them, Ashtray Wasp, was called the Bohemian Rhapsody of dubstep by more than one critic); his earlier Massive Attack EP was the same (2 tracks, both 12 minutes long), as is his recent Truant EP (14 minutes and 12 minutes). Kanye's widely-lauded My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy featured a 9 minute track, an 8 minute track, and 2 tracks over 6 minutes, plus a sample of King Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man, in case there's any doubt about the direction his album's leaning in. When those two are doing it, expect others to follow.

I believe Justin Timberlake was in a really unique/interesting Sci-Fi film titled "Out of Time". A unique plot..I thought! It felt like a modern day Rod Serling story. I was generally impressed..but short of that.I have no idea who he is. Great film though and he did an excellent acting job/role along side other character actors.
