PROG ROCK- breaking news, gossip, libel, lies etc
- Thread starter Woebot
- Start date
i have a real, massive problem with these threads, especially their names.
as this is a type-written forum, where postings go on the record, it would be libel, not slander.
libel = written word. slander = spoken word.
just had to say. it's been bugging me for months.

something blissblogger wrote reminded me of the recent reissue of King Crimson's "Lark Tongues in Aspic" i bought a few months ago- but the dynamics on this seem to have been exaggerated- the quiet parts are almost inaudible, and the louder parts are totally blasting. i can't say this really bothers me that much- definitely keeps you on your toes...
but it does make me wonder about reissues- how much tinkering is going on in the remaster?

Would this be where Tool discussion goes, if there is any? I did a little search and found nothing.
ah haha... brought a smile to this otherwise dreary morning this did 
the most exciting thing I've discovered in the realm of contemporary psych and prog rock is by FAR a project by one of the Circle members called Pharoah Overlord. not all the material over 3 or 4 albums is top-notch but when it's good it is impossibly good.... doom laden, menacing motorik work-outs and gorgeous alien guitar tones - with none of the over-indulgent freak-outs of A.M.T., but with the trademark Finnish restraint almost remecescent of Pan Sonic... Neu! in a bad mood ploting the destruction of the world!

"Badder-Meinhoff Blues" just sounds cool. Gonna have to track that one down.Buick6 said:
You've got to be careful with remasters. Unscrupulous record conglomerates have been known to "remaster" from "pristine" copies of first vinyl pressings rather than the original tapes. Always inportant to check the liner notes...carlos said:

i've heard mystery jets and my thought s are just because someone says it's prog rock doesn't mean it is, like people say the streets is the godfather of grime, these are meaningless remarks made to give something weight, mystery jets sound just like any other unmemorable rock band at the moment.
i think if you are looking for prog (or psych) in some ways the US is where all that action is ..

What I've heard of the group Zombi (one track) is bleedin' superb. Obviously vast shades of Carpenter / Goblin. Got to hear more.
Here's where I heard it (18 and a half minutes), cheers xxjfg:

Their first album is fabulous - Now Here is Nowhere. It was recommended to you in your "Indie Rock Or Wot" thread at least 3 times
But I hasten to point out that I wouldn't recommend it as a prog or psych album. It's pretty stripped-down rock and quite tracky.
The second one has lost me a bit after only a couple of listens.
