What album are you listening to? v.4

[home]

One of the more "poppy" Porcupine Tree albums., some great moments, Last Chance to Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled keeps creeping me out though 


I am enjoying this way more than I should

B'z- Green

The Astonishing.

First Spin.

[Train of Naught]

Think I first found this on youtube labeled something like "awesome prog metal", certainly lived up to that.

[Big Hath]

I really like the electronic elements they inject into the genre

i probably should've waited a bit to send east of the wall to people since The Fractal Canopy is like the perfect roulette song for DTF, and probably my favorite on this album
though i like this album a lot in general, it's a bit more accessible than their other two but still unique enough and pretty damn good
i've listened to it like a dozen times and i'm still not tired of it in the slightest which is really the norm for these guys all things considered

[Crow]

it took me a long time to even track down somewhere to listen to this release

this is totally "prototype EotW" though, rough around the edges but still cool stuff

i'm basically a fanboy for these guys tho at this point, i'm going to own literally every release that isn't a split or a biclops demo eventually

[ASacrificedSon]

Hope your eyes fared well! And optical illusion! Is this triangle straight?

[Crow]

for demos, this is still pretty cool stuff

i love these guys and want everything they've ever recorded

[Crow]

this is basically the crazy proggy instrumental version of East of the Wall
it might actually be a little too much, but i'mma keep listening to it anyways

[SebastianPratesi]

Well, besides The Astonishing and Blackstar, which I've obtained very recently, I've been listening to this, which was a Christmas present from my aunt and uncle:


So far, my favourite songs are "Rip This Joint" and "Loving Cup".

Also, this album from last year:


She's a mexican singer, who won a couple of Latin Grammys last year for the title-track. However, for me the standout track is "No Más Llorar", probably the most beautiful and haunting song I've heard in all my life.

I prefer Jason Becker's album, and Marty's Scenes and Introduction, but its an excellent shred album. I can't watch him play though - that picking hand is just weird. How he plays so well with such arthritis is beyond me

it's got a couple of good tunes, but I don't find it nearly as appealing as Themata or Sound Awake

[Sacul]

Giving the early PT records another chance. Damn this is great.

I feel the same about the album, it has some of my favourite Karnivool songs (We are, Alpha Omega, Aeons, Eidolon) but also my least favourite (the song assymetry for example, I really don't like the guitar sound) so overall I would say Themata and Sound Awake are better albums.

Only know Sound Awake and Asymmetry but I agree SA is better in every aspect.

CHON - Grow, if in the right mood, this is perfect.

[BlobVanDam]

Ooh thanks for the heads up. I'm not super optimistic based on the songs so far, but I'm hoping the album is ok. Interested to hear your thoughts.

[wolfking]

Me too.  Brent have you shared opinions of the Resurrection Kings also? Maybe I've just missed them.

[BlobVanDam]

Mostly done with the Last in Line album myself now. In more ways than one.

I guess that sums things up.    I'm not expecting anything from it anyway.

[jjrock88]

I would be interested in hearing that Last in Line album but don't expect much

Black Sabbath- The Eternal Idol

First time listening to The Mars Volta and  it's amazing! I haven't listened to something that immediatly clicked so well in a long time, so good.
