The Dear Hunter
not really, it just means looking at the Bible through the lens of Gnosticism. i don't know if i believe in Gnosticism, i've experienced some things that make me think it is true, but i'm still not sure.
I have their entire discog on my Walkman now, so I’m discovering them bit by bit. Their weirdo 2012 collab album made quite an impression, but so far I haven’t had others grab me as much. Unsure what percentage I actually heard but it’s not a lot yet.
Good stuff though, like their 2 country albums, or songs I caught here and there
then you understand neither
Holy shit
what about it
It's so good.
girls laughed at him because he was fat and ugly
its cinema
it's like days of future passed but instead of focusing on the atmosphere, they just play their instruments in a (subtle) proggy way
Really? I just remember Suite in C being decent, the rest just sub par Monty python
*Suite 1, C is on that other album
JUSTICE FOR RODNEY
B-but at the end he bought rude books! With rude pictures in them!
oh is that the end already? No more skits? What a bad sequencing idea having them there is in the first place.
But then i guess that was all about mocking Robert having him read it.
Rodney did nothing wrong
The songs themselves are mostly better than I remembered, but the ‘humour’ is pretty grating.
Fascinating prequel to King and the Crimsons’ debut, though, hearing things like that Cruckster’s guitar, very Fripp
I'm trying not to summon a specific poster on this board, but how do you think the comedy of the cheerful insanity compares with the comedy of a certain Frank Z?
It's alright
Giles Giles and Fripp is more serious musically speaking
ICV is better
Yeah, it’s not such a bother being just small skits between songs. But they are pretty bad though, those George ones might even be worse and more pointless than the Rodney thing.
And we’re in modern era where we can just skip them or even edit them out, this on vinyl means you have to suffer the skits each time.
And sort of like the other guy said, I don’t think I would mind the Zappa attempts at jokes if he let the music live and breathe more
This guy doesn't even know a man and his name is george
What do we think about Von Hertzen Brothers?
They definitely are worse, though
I don't know, I've listened to them so much when I was a young teenager they aren't so much jokes as sound poetry as far as I like them. So really a lot less impressive on a technical level and more just centering.
I especially hate when they do ‘the stupid voice’ in those George segments (same voice as when Monty python went HELLOW).
It’s rather odd because without those the album itself doesn’t seem that cheerfully insane
litchrelly hoo
Honest thoughts?
Paragraph 5 is the best song
I came to the conclusion i'm not into prog, i'm just into Magma, Gentle Giant, King Crimson and Camel. I especially don't care for Yes and Genesis.
holy shit its like if Pearls Before Swine had a bastard child with Sir Lord Baltimore
also obligatory it's prog since i forgot picrel
Eh, nothing too disagreeable but nothing too out of the ordinary either
rush
exorcist album
opinion discarded
listening to Danger Money cause I love UK :D
based UK lover
Zeuhl is when crazy music and I can't understand the lyrics
You feel the lyrics, you don't understand them.
