So I've been listening to far too much prog-rock this past week. It began when I downloaded Bit Torrent and realised that I would need some new music to download. I sent an email to my friend Alpar, whose near-impeccable music taste is marred only by his love for Van Halen (although he told me a while back that he didn't like them anymore, I could ( Read more... )

Dude Vijai (with an 'i') what is up with your tripped out background!? Are you trying to tell me you're a hippy or something? What are you trying to say?

A few days ago I met this guy who looks like he's 30, has braces, and was wearing a "Magic the Gathering" shirt. Fuckin A. What the fuck is going on!?

Davi (missing the 's' like a true latvian, eh?),

how many times do i have to stress this - i ain't no damn hippy! see the background isn't about "trippin" or anything - it's a mathematically generated fractal, representing my love for higher maths! duh!

are you back in Kzoo yet? i'm in some cafe in toronto waiting for my bus to peterborough, but i'll be back monday and will ring you up. p-p-p-p-peace!

Yo Vijay,
If you want some more good prog rock, my personal favorite and highly recommended is "Yes- Fragile", the rest are on your list already, although I would add "Emerson, Lake & Palmer- Brain Salad Surgery".
Enjoy

Thanks for the suggestions Itay! I actually had downloaded that ELP album around the same time as the Camel ones, and it certainly does kick the proverbial ass! I'll try to find that Yes album today and let you know what i think! Where are you at for the winter-holidays, by the way?

The world deserving of being missed has perished, not a trace left now

Ah!

Magma "Kohntarkosz", "Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh", "Udu Wudu", "Magma/Kobaia", "Theusz Hamtaak", + any Bootlegs from the 70's
