I decided I want a playlist called "Prog in Your Face!" and I am looking for recommendations of songs worthy of making the playlist. These can be classic or modern, well known or obscure, any sub-genre.
Recommend me anything that makes you think "Prog in Your Face!" Edited by mathman0806 - December 20 2019 at 01:54 |

I am leaving "Prog In Your Face" open to interpretation. Apparently it's dirty to some. Definitely will have some Zappa. I don't own any Jade Warrior. Will have to look into some Hackett. Edited by mathman0806 - December 17 2019 at 18:56 |

The playlist will be the prog equivalent to Kiss's song "Lick It Up". Edited by mathman0806 - December 17 2019 at 18:57 |

When I think of "Prog in your face" I think of songs that immediately hit you over the head with strange rhythms and/or multi-layered melodies/harmonies. Off the top of my head, examples could include "Generale!" by PFM, "Ace Of Wands" by Steve Hackett, "Neurotica" by King Crimson, "Sound Chaser" by Yes, "Cogs In Cogs" by Gentle Giant and "Brujo" by Area. Perhaps also "Nekomajin vs" by Nuito if you have a tolerance for math rock

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I'm thinking more Flying Luttenbachers, or Upsilon Acrux, you guys are picking stuff that's way too gentle.

Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I observed before. It can be much like that with music for me; immersed in experiencing the moment.

Magma - M.D.K. is rather "in your face".

Lots of Magma is, including this in its own way: And the side-project Offering's "Earth" might be a good one to mention: |
