    George - I listened to Thank You Scientist after you talked about them on an episode a couple years ago and I freakin love them. I introduced my daughter to them and she loves them. We just saw them in June on their little summer tour (in Pomona, CA) and the show was great. I actually quite like Sal’s vocals - they are unique and somehow fit the quirkiness of their music. Great recommendation…thanks!

As we are unfortunately not spoilt for choice in the metal realms down in Australia is great to see you appreciate them and they are incredible live. Another great prog metal band from Australia is Chaos Divine. Their albums the human connection and legacies are awesome. Great melodic prog metal with some killer riffing. Thanks for the endless effort you put into keeping this channel going Pete with all the fantastic guests. All the best!

  • @Michael_Birk
    @Michael_Birk 2 роки тому +1

    The term 'Djent' apparently came from a guitarist; I think Misha Mansoor from Periphery, describing a guitar technique in an interview. Djent is an onomatopoeia; making a word that describes a sound, like sizzle. Anyway, it mainly caught on in the guitar player community, and I suppose fans of modern prog metal. Pete and the guys were picking on 'Djent' music a bit for it's extreme technicalities, which I totally get. A month ago or so, Andy Edwards said it sounds like a computer program, or maybe a cyborg playing music. Again, I get it... though the guys then talk about their favorite stuff and describe it favorably as technical and complex. Could it be that us older guys haven't fully absorbed this latest style and sound? Though I do like certain bands; Modern Day Babylon, Wide Eyes, Animals as Leaders, Plini, Helix Nebula, and Scoredatura (Scoredatura not as cyborgish). It's like Dylan going electric, or more so like, say, rockabilly or 60's rock fans hearing Hendrix, Iommi, Page, J. Beck.

    No ranking here, as I would have included in my top 10 quite a few of the bands listed. Instead, some of the notable misses I identified :
    Karnivool : surprised that nobody mentioned them, one level above their fellow Aussies Caligula's Horse, to my opinion
    The Mars Volta : really can't imagine a top 10 without them here!
    Animals As Leaders, Polyphia : flagships of instrumental, djent-, math-, whatever- Prog Metal
    Klone : french band whose last two albums are absolutely fantastic, after having evolved from hardcore Metal to a more melodic Prog Metal style
    In The Silence : one album out so far (A Fair Dream Gone Mad) - great guitarworks, decent singer, catchy, atmospheric songs - looking forward to their second album after their reunion
    Soulsplitter : new German band, clearly my favourites these last years with two mindblowing albums out (Salutogenesis & Connection), including metal, progressive, doom and even jazzy elements, with a fantastic guitarist

    Scoredatura: 'Tense' and 'Honest Oblivion' (2015 & 2018). Instrumental-Proggish-Metal/HardRock. I'm 61 and feel like I'm 16 with excitement and obsession for this stuff for about six months now. Somebody in the band called them, "Miles meets Meshugga". I would say more like, "Sabbath meets Mahavishnu meets Meshugga". Any reference here to jazz only comes with a definition of jazz being; musical themes with abstract melodies and rhythms. ua-cam.com/users/results?search_query=scoredatura If you're intrigued at first listen, but not head over heels, I would keep going back to it. That's how it happened to me. Now I love every song they have; 2 albums and 2 singles (2021); 22 songs.

    In alphabetical order:
    1.-Aenaon (Grece)
    2.-Furia (Poland) in they latter period because they started as a (fantastic) Black Metal band.
    3.-Haken (England)
    4.-Ihsahn (Norway)
    5.-Leprous (Norway)
    6.-Obscura (Germany)
    7. Gonin-Isshu (Japan) maybe I'm cheating because they release a demo in 1999 😜 but is a f’n great band period.

    Between the Buried and Me are the best band in this genre IMO. They have lapped everyone and keep getting better. I like the second Arch-Matheos and the Ray Alder solo album. I think Both are much better than the last Fates Warning album. Besides Crack the Skye is Mastodon really a prog metal band or a metal band that made a prog album, I think the second one.

    The Fullness of Time is an all-time classic. The ones after are great, but TFOT is a step above. I also did not like Tom Englund singing with Redemption. Did not fit at all and Redemption has kind of gone inactive.
    Steven - you must get Green Carnation Light of Day, Day of Darkness. You will not regret it. Their ProgPower performance of the album is one of the best ever.
    Caligula's Horse is right on Haken's tail as the current best program metal band. Another classic ProgPower performance.

    Show idea for future.... psychedelic albums which could be deemed the birth of prog.
    On another note, gigs are a mixed bag now, you have Battles between sound guys and the band. I've been a sound guy for metal and punk bands. Bassists can't play without the Amps being high, guitarists always want to be louder than everyone. As for most sound guys today a lot are taught at music school.... the best sound is just to not have the instruments in the PA, just have vocals, especially in a smaller venue.

    Steven, I also cannot stand the Djent label but I have been a fan of Meshuggah (godfathers o fthe genre) since "Destroy Erase Improve" came out. regarding Tesseract, I quite enjoy some of their stuff but they kept changing vocalist like socks, and some of them (mostly on the EPs) were quite BAD. I would take Periphery (starting with 2nd album and 2nd singer) over them any day. Cheers !

    4. MIKE OLDFIELD 1976 BOXED
    In 1976 Mike Oldfield took a break after three "hit" albums. Virgin thought it was a good idea to remix Tubular Bells (1973), Hergest Ridge (1974) and Ommadawn (1975) in quad. Those three remixes were put together in a box and released as Boxed (1976). Mike's quad mix of Hergest Ridge was the most interesting of the three because it differered quite a bit from the original stereo mix. Eventually almost every forthcoming release of Hergest Ridge (both on LP and CD) would feature this new quad mix. It wasn't until the 2010 remaster of Hergest Ridge that we could hear the original 1974 stereo mix in digital format. Another interesting thing was the inclusion of the "drunken" version of Sailor's Hornpipe, the traditional that closed Part Two of Tubular Bells. Richard Branson didn't like that version with vocals from Vivian Stanshall and it was replaced by a sped up instrumental version. On Boxed you can discover Mike's original idea.
    There was also a fourth disc in the Boxed (1976) box: the so called Collaborations record. Side 1 featured excerpts from three David Bedford albums (also on Virgin) with Mike guesting on guitar. Extract from Star's End was taken from Star's End (1974), The Rio Grande can be found on The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner (1975) and Phaecian Games originates from The Odyssey (1976). Remember Bedford arranged Tubular Bells for orchestra in 1974 and released it as The Orchestral Tubular Bells in 1975. On the already mentioned Hergest Ridge 2CD set from 2010 you can find The Orchestral Hergest Ridge, although this adaptation was never officialy released on vinyl back in the days.
    David Bedford also appears on side 2 of Collaborations. The opening track First Excursion was one of the three new recordings on Boxed (1976). Oldfield stunning 70's guitar tones interwoven with Bedfords neoclassical piano playing turn this 6 minutes piece into a fantastic listening experience. The closing track is a no more than a joke: David and Mike sing an out of tune duet on Speak (Tho' You Only Say Farewell), a cover from the old songbook. It was a recording that dated back to 1974. In between are the three instrumental traditionals Mike recorded with record player Leslie Penning. In Dulci Jubilo had been a hit in 1975, Portsmouth was the new single and the more moody piece Argiers was used as a B-side.
    You can read the first three chapters in the comments of the previous epîsoded of In The Prog Seat. Next week: Mike Oldfield 1977.
