HOLY SHIT

HOLY SHIT
I take back everything I ever said about hating this album. It finally clicked. 1000/10.
Holy fucking shit, this is like Morrowind but in music form and I fucking LOVE it.

(Still not as good as Foxtrot though.)

It's pretty good

Fragile is great too, the Yes Album as well

quads for truth

Close to the Edge lost me when I first heard it, but Siberian Khatru was awesome and And You and I was beautiful. Gave the title song another listen and realized how great it was.

One of my favorite albums now.

so are you just getting into prog? seems like it if Foxtrot is your favourite genesis album. listen to tresspass, and selling england and nursery cryme.

nursery cryme and selling england were hard pills to swallow for me, for some reason. but they're fucking incredible after listening to them a couple of times.

then when you get those albums, listen to the lamb.

just ignore if you're not new to prog.

I recommend giving Relayer a shot next.

This is like how I was with Demon Days.

yeah but that album is actually bad

...

Soon, you'll get to the final phase of your Prog Journey: realizing that Tales from Topographic Oceans is Yes' third best album and one of the top ten prog albums ever.

but it isn't an opinion it's a fact

Notice how it says "STOP" clearly on the album cover?
It actually means "STOP TRYING TO DEFEND THIS SHITTY ALBUM THAT KILLED PROG."

Guess I'll have to be wrong on this one, then.
Also, I liked Gorillaz before it was cool.

>The album that killed prog
KEK! Record Labels forcing punk, pop, metal, and early hip-hop down everyone's throats is what killed prog.

it was and never will be cool

>it
?

I think prog killed itself with the pompous wank. Thanks ELP.

The recapitulation of "I Get Up I Get Down" is the greatest moment in all of rock music.

You mean Tubthumper?

Suppers Ready > Selling England > rest of Foxtrot

More like
Can-Utility and the Coastliners > Supper's Ready > Selling England > rest of Foxtrot

ok? what about horizons. foxtrot is a much more well structured album than selling england, but selling england has so many of genesis' greatest songs in it. lamb > selling enland > foxtrot/nursery cryme.

>Thanks ELP.
You have to admit, though, ELP's pompous wank was still fucking brilliant. Only ELP could get away with Fanfare for the Common Man, Karn Evil 9, Jerusalem, Toccata, and Tarkus.

Agreed.

Prog isn't dead. It just evolved into industrial music.

It stopped being progressive. So yeah, it did.

relayer > close to the edge desu

When the organ kicks in

What's so bad about it, exactly?
