>>49899687
Psychedelic Pop and Rock?
What do you guys think about my shitty chart?
>>49899923
Blues inspired, Pop oriented, Hard Rock oriented, Jam Oriented, Experimental/Other, or something like that.

i updated this btw, in case you're interested.
adebisi shank sucks tho
>>49902217
so much 2011
>>49902265
That album has two good tracks, the rest felt very meh.
What program did you use?
>>49902301
yes it did. not a good suggestion. if it was me, i'd change the whole thing.
to update? just paint lel.
is there one for post hardcore or really emotional shit?
>>49902366
It's still pretty good. Maybe I could add some things, like Planets and Grand Ulena near Yowie and Hella; Perhaps and Bulletproof Tiger somewhere near Giraffes, and some random stuff.
>>49895141
why is NMH in the fall from a tall structure category?
Deloused is in there because it's about a guy who killed himself this way
>>49902423
check these out: >>49898392, >>49898550
>>49902440
those are all good ideas. i'm sorry, i didn't mean taking adebisi shank off the album, but maybe not putting it directly under the first don cab album, it's a very different sound and people might be confused or disappointed. imho it should be more near hella.
>>49902508
>off the album
lel. off the chart, i mean.
>>49902508
I was thinking the same, Adebisi near Hella. Also, make Sajjanu a combination of Yowie and YS!'s Critical Meat.
Hella + Don Cab = Grand Ulena
More Grand Ulena = Planets
More Grand Ulena but not as heavy? = Ahleuchatistas
Grand Ulena but crazier? = Yowie
Want to check Yowie's Prototype? = Malade de Souci
Malade de Souci/Yowie, but Metal? = Orthrelm
>>49902482
isn't emo more after the feel of what it's like being an american growing up in the suburbs though?
i am a huge bright eyes fan btw and it's often considered an emo band, though they are probably more indie or folk than emo. they also seem to be relatively more experimental in their approach to music than the emo i have listened to so far
No rap/ hip hop?
>>49902574
maybe you're looking for something like this m8. this is all i got
i want to make a proper full one with all kinds of modern prog but I suck at photoshop and have no time
>>49902573
>orthrelm
haha that's pretty good m8. still haven't listenened to ahleuchatistas so can't comment there. all good ideas imo.
>>49902623
i am looking for emotional music. that's not necessarily the emo genre. for example i consider the mars volta one of the deepest emotional experiences i have ever had. i am looking for something intesne
>>49902641
Check this >>49899573
Any suggestions (Albums/Sections/etc)?
>>49902650
They are crazy, but I haven't given them a proper listen yet.
Ahleuchatistas is more like an instrumental TMR, but with a lot of crazy and fun twists.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DWVAsNdheQ
Haha, I love this track <3
>>49902699
Cardiacs. They are exatly what you want if you say that The Mars Volta is the deepest emotional experience you have ever heard (Cardiacs are 10 times better, and that's a lot).
>>49901633
what's wrong?
>>49895141
oh wow the choose life thing was my idea when this was made
Since I Left You still makes me happy :)
>>49902728
i have listened to some cardiacs. they are good. they are missing the heavyness though.
if you want something similar but different to the mars volta then check out the sound of animals fighting and triclops! as a huge mars volta these are the only 2 bands that i have come across so far that sound similar but very different. they are what i am love about modern prog rock.
believe me, i have probably listened to everything suppossedly similar to tmv and i think most of it is just really uninteresting.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRRIFYnQOUU
from their post hardcore album
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EMzoAqyXg0
from their progressive rock album
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzXxXK8XIvk
triclops!
anyway, just generally looking for emotional shit in the direction of tmv/bright eyes/ neutral milk hotel/ modest mouse/ arcade fire/ radiohead.
also here is some anywhere. would highly recommend you to check them out if you dont know them
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDuqQa2Og6Y
Anyone have some essential bleeps?
Maybe acid house, tech house, etc
>>49902641
Mew - Glass Handed Kites
>>49902861
>they are missing the heavyness though
What? Did you even listened to Sing to God or On Land and In The Sea?
I'm not a big fan of Mars Volta though. I know what parts are supposed to make you feel, but for some reason those do nothing. That's a pretty awful feeling, so I won't be listening to them until some months mroe (maybe even years), until my mentality has changed, because I know they are amazing. But I can still try those you mentioned first.
>just generally looking for emotional shit in the direction of tmv/bright eyes/ neutral milk hotel/ modest mouse/ arcade fire/ radiohead.
The Books - The Lemon of Pink
If I had to rate my most intense musical experiences, Sing to God would be first and The Lemon of Pink second.
>>49902641
Hi Gallifrey
>>49902641
another person that has listened to that fair to midland album! hello there fellow plebian! pretty cool album tho
>>49902947
>I know what parts are supposed to make you feel, but for some reason those do nothing
not even with their buildups?
when you listen to cygnus..vismund cygnus you have this weird beginning that i honestly didnt like the first times i listened to it but after 4 minutes the song changes completely, goes into near complete silence and then the guitar starts playing and it's getting more and more intense until after a few minutes the lyrics kick in. incredible part, even if they build a few of their songs this way.
but yeah the mars volta is not for everyone and that's ok.
less heavy and very emotional:

I picked this up a while ago from some trip, it's a pretty good list, not perfect, but a good start.
Is there a Nu Disco chart?
If so, pls post.
>>49899573
I think that, while there's some good shit there, you're being a bit too eclectic for most people. Essential prog should always be Yes, Genesis, Floyd etc with a handful of extra shit, this one seems to be mostly avant-prog. Maybe do a chart for that stuff since you seem to listen to a lot of that?
>>49902942
Actually that could fit. Mew are one of my favourite bands ever so I probably should. I prefer Frengers by miles but Glass Handed Kites has the most amount of prog
>>49902950
Hey whoever you are
>>49903019
That album has possibly the best choruses ever.
>>49902706
good track, gotta check these guise out. thanks m8!
>>49903107
Nope. I will listen to them again eventually though.
You probably listened to A Little Man, because those two albums I mentioned are heavy (both in loudness and in things going on at once)
>>49903277
The thing with adding Yes, Genesis, etc is that everybody knows about them, and adding them to an essential chart is obvious. I will add them anyways in the next version though.
The instrumental section is filled with math rock/avant prog, that's true. But in the other sections it's about putting some original stuff, and the stuff labeled as Prog Rock is usually the same stuff as the Big 4 (or 5, 6, idk) of Prog, so that's why there's more avant-prog. But most of those aren't really that inaccessible as the genre name suggests.
>>49903709
You are welcome!
Also, if you want you can add Rich Woodson's Ellipsis as "Yowie but with Jazz instrumentation", and Cheval de Frise as "Yowie but with acoustic guitars"
>>49903810
>The thing with adding Yes, Genesis, etc is that everybody knows about them, and adding them to an essential chart is obvious
I get that, but isn't that like the point of essentials chart? That they're essential?
Maybe suggest that this is like a further listening chart, or it's a bunch of lesser known but unique albums, because I like to think I know my prog but I can only name 2/3rds of the ones on there.
>>49903957
Yeah, but the thing I'm trying to avoid is that /mu/ only listens to the same prog bands all the time. Will add them anyways, but give them the same space as every otehr album.
>I like to think I know my prog but I can only name 2/3rds of the ones on there
That's a lot. Do you have any album suggestions?
>>49902192
>Altered State
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
it's my favourite album out of that chart but holy shit no it's not forward thinking
>yeezus
>not backward thinking
>>49904027
Most of the ones I recognise are from trawling genre charts on ProgArchives and RYM, that area isn't my specialty and I probably couldn't list much that you wouldn't know. One that I feel could be there is Taal's Skymind - I loved how it felt like a modern classical album done entirely with standard prog instrumentation.
>>49902897
I saved a few though I don't know if they're good. Yggdrasil definitely is, though.

Nice. Will check it out.
Still, you could add suggestions that I might already heard but didn't put in the chart, so I could reconsider those.

Not yet, but I will in 30 minutes or so. If you are still here I will tell you my opinion.
>>49909478

I'm not sure doing a column for each decade is really necessary, since we know prog isn't really evenly distributed over time
I would maybe suggest something like >>49894681, with a handful of albums for each 'subgenre', without really caring about when they were released

god i abused the fuck outta this chart last year. good shit
>>49909984
>I'm not sure doing a column for each decade is really necessary, since we know prog isn't really evenly distributed over time
Except that's fucking wrong. My personal preference or Prog, when it comes to decades is like this
00 > 90 > 70 > 80 > 10
>>49909984
The idea of adding decades was to convince people that Modern Prog is still good and original.
Yeah, I like the idea of that chart, but the problem is choosing the right subgenres. Do you think anything should be changed regarding this?
>>49910436
Yeah I get that, I also prefer modern prog, but it's just that you only get to pick one from each decade, whereas with general, you can pick the best ones. You can still put modern albums in there
It's not bad, but I think "rock" is way too broad. The ProgArchives subgenres are a bit odd, but they're pretty good for stuff like this - there should be at least a column for symphonic and one for non-symphonic in terms of classic prog. Also I'm not sure if instrumental should be its own - you can get instrumental albums in a range of subgenres
>>49910660
I like almost all of those albums equally though.
Yeah, I was thinking about changing Rock for Symphonic, or something like that. The thing is that Modern Prog seems to be just revivalist stuff (but maybe I'm missing something).
And yeah, instrumental was another odd one. I like the idea, but I find it somehow fitting.
Thanks for your suggestions!
