Ivan, I really hope you don't lump Opeth in with Linkin Park... Opeth are a prog band first and foremost. I know Mikael's said they're a death metal band at a show or two, but he says all sorts of things at shows to get a rise out of people, like the time he said they were going to do a polka song. ------------- https://soundcloud.com/erin-susan-jennings" rel="nofollow - Bedroom guitarist".

Of course not Man Overboard, I think Opeth is a very good Death Metal band with a very original sound but don't believe it's Prog. On the other hand Linkin Park SUCKS!!!!!!! For Proctologist : The last 2 or 3 pages of A RULE ON THIS SITE HAS BEEN VIOLATED!!! Iván -------------

Ivan, I thought the same. But when I heard "Blackwater Park" and "Still Life" my perception changed. Or put it simply: If Porcupine Tree "In Absentia" is "in" why not Opeth? Just a thought ... I may be wrong. Well, honestly everyday when I visit this site I always prepare my self to have "shock" with new additions - the last one was Queen. I didn't want to review it because I don't think most of the albums of Queen are prog. But, I though for a while: "Hey! It's all about rock music, Gatot!. The music that you love!" OK OK ... finally I put my words on Queen as well. I don't care it's prog or not. I leave it to the ADMIN GROUP to decide which bands to include. The rest, if I feel that "I want to review" that album then I will do. Cheers, Gatot

I see no tragedy in this. I don't have any of their records and am not a fan per se, but every time I hear any of their songs on a radio I rather like what I hear! They write some catchy stuff, take it or leave it. |
Posted By: Citanul
Date Posted: August 03 2005 at 05:39
Well I acutally have Hybrid Theory and Meteora. They're certainly not prog, but you're right in saying that they write some catchy songs. They also some some decent interplay between the two vocalists at times, and they don't try to see how many expletives they can throw into one song, unlike some other similar-sounding bands. I haven't been that keen on their collabarations with rap artists, but you have to give them credit for trying something slightly different. |

In a live setting, they swear so much that you start to wonder if they know any other words. Around the turn of the century, most of my friends were into 'em, and tried to subject them to me on a regular basis... "they've got keyboards, m8, why don't ya like 'em like ya do them other bands of yours!?" The songs often consists of about 2-4 single-finger, drop-tuned power chords on guitar (with the bass following the root note), a single, simple loop for the "keyboards", drumming patterns that make Ringo Starr look like a master, and whiny, bullsh*t lyrics that could've been written by any attention-whoring, "suicidal" high school kid. Considering this simple pattern, I wasn't surprised when I heard two songs bearing the same tempo, key, chord progression, and 'changes' into verse/chorus/etc. In addition, their guitarist has gone on record bashing guitarists who play solos, saying they're "soulless" and "not a true show of ability" (apparently his whole-note powerchords are), but he assured the interviewer that he was a "damn good soloist, it just doesn't fit the music". On a recent tour, Linkin Park attempted to cover Guns 'n' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine". The solo? He didn't even make it that far, he fell apart on the rather simple intro. He literally played it so bad that he threw the rest of the band off, and they had to stop the song long before the solo, usually long before even the lyrics (they attempted this over the course of a whole tour, I've learned). And that's why I hate Linkin Park.  ------------- https://soundcloud.com/erin-susan-jennings" rel="nofollow - Bedroom guitarist". Composer, Arranger, Producer.

There's way too many "fake out" threads, first Fripp's dead and now this... Linkin Park isn't prog....but I can see where someone might get that. They were all I listened to before I first heard Pink Floyd (around age 14), and some of their stuff, in retrospect, does show some tendencies. Most of it, no. But there is the electronic sampling instrumental tracks by "Mr. Hahn" on all the albums that departs from the normal nu metal stuff they have. Also, the 'reanimated' album has some orchestral parts and electronic experimentation stuff, as well as extended songs. But on the other side, they regularly resort to boring, formulaic power chords, cheat with electronics, shamelessly do straight-rap parts (the bane of the "reanimated" album), and recently did some retarded "collision course" with rapper Jay Z that pretty much any hope I had for them. I think they're pretty much through. |

Any *true* progger would know that Fripp, being a deity, cannot die of
heart complications, but only when the ancient artifacts described in
Lizard are brought back from the four corners of the earth and given
the ritual of legend.
