^ You have got your work cut out for you
I am really enjoying getting more back catalogue works on popol vuh.
The krauts definitely were the masters of electronic prog IMO

I have really enjoyed all of Ashcroft's solo albums especially Human Conditions, but apparently his new album is full of rap/hip hop so not so appealing. He gets a raw deal probably cos of his Bittersweet Symphony persona

I've just started listening to Squeeze and am really enjoying them. I got Argybargy, which is an enjoyable, quality, intelligent pop record from 1980 and there's not a lot of those. I've also suddenly lost some of my respect for Morrissey- I thought his vocal style was original but he actually appears to have largely swiped it from Squeeze's Chris Difford.

Found this sentence in a review here:
"A lot of bands that appeared in scene of Prog Rock of Japan in the latter half of the 90's exist."
I know what he meant but it still tickled me ;)

It's got 37 on Metacritic so you can expect that silence to continue.

Poor old Richard Ashcroft. He had a huge feature in Q talking all this sh*te about how his new record was the future and going to put him on the map and shut all the doubters up and, almost inevitably, it has turned out to be one of the worst reviewed releases for a very long time.

The admins need to coordinate a little better, this was moved from Prog to General Discussions and then from there to General Music Discussions, which still doesn't make any sense and left another one of the unbearably annoying and broken moved thread markers lurking in General Discussions for an indefinite period of time.
Damn it harmonium, why did you have to quote it! Now this page is NSFW too!
|
I think because this is the Prog Randomness Thread it is being moved to various categories at random.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
