ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | I'll drive up to Liverpool and rape you if you carry this on, Leb. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Was hard to publish, too much prog pumpin through ma veins. |
Keyblade
04.25.13 | no camel. I am sad |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | Buzzing so much that 10 is here - one of my favourite KC albums. |

04.25.13 | If Thursday goes prog, I'm going to shit myself with happiness. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Its from the big 4 only Key, but I will try to squeeze in some Mirage. |
Keyblade
04.25.13 | had no idea there was a big 4. I'd have camel in my big 4, and in my big 1 for that matter |

04.25.13 | List rules. |
blairosh
04.25.13 | No Gentle Giant = disappointing. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Ye there was man, a lot of people think Yes should be replaced by Camel.
@blairosh Read the descrip. |
JamieTwort
04.25.13 | Jethro Tull should be in the big 4. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | There's too many awesome 70's prog outfits for their to be a Big 4. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | Replacing who, Jamie? |
Keyblade
04.25.13 | "Ye there was man, a lot of people think Yes should be replaced by Camel. @blairosh Read the descrip."
I am also of this school of thought |
JamieTwort
04.25.13 | @Buttery: Probably Yes. But I prefer Tull over all of these so it's hard to say. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Probs right man. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | It's such a tough call. I'd have Gentle Giant over Tull, but admittedly, I need to check more Tull. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Floyd are in a different league imo, but whatever. |
JamieTwort
04.25.13 | Tull

04.25.13 | The lack of Tull makes me sad. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | I've only just recently started listening to Tull, been infatuated with Floyd for as long as I can remember.
Love you regardless, JT < 3 |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | Sorry Jamie xxx |

Yes
Floyd |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Floyd that low? Hot diggity damn. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | I dig Floyd so hard, but I feel that their not as strong when it comes to technical musicianship as the other hardcore prog bands.
Their still amazing though. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Well no other prog rock band have released better albums than Animals and WYWH, just saying. |
Butkuiss
04.25.13 | No Devolucion was pretty proggy guys. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | @Leb - Mirage. |

There you go, Lebbo. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | But you don't mean it :/ |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | Embrace the moment. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Its gone. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | Do you dig Piper At The Gates Of Dawn? |
blairosh
04.25.13 | Sorry to drop a clanger guys, but in the scheme of good prog rock bands, Floyd are massively overrated (Animals aside).
My top 5 prog bands:
1) Genesis (Peter Gabriel-era)
2) Gentle Giant
3) Rush
4) King Crimson
5) The Mars Volta
Probably pretty divisive but whatevs.
Yes and Tull have produced some absolute classics (particular Tull, with Aqualung and Thick As A Brick) but their output in general has been pretty patchy. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Wow, you lie. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | The Mars Volta in the top five is an outrageous joke.
Amputecture is a master piece, agreed, but that's it.
3 out of 6 albums are 4 - 5s. |
BigPleb
04.25.13 | Bringing TMV into a classic prog thread is dumb. |
Artuma
04.25.13 | fuck yeah, just started to jam Aqualung
good prog day is today |
blairosh
04.25.13 | Note that I didn't say "top 5 classic prog bands". If that's all you're looking for (and why should it be?) then replace TMV with Camel.
Also, there's a load more classic prog bands you could mention (Van Der Graaf Generator, Caravan) - prog lists with loads of Floyd are boring.
BBB: Amputecture isn't even the best TMV album. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | Blair -Yes it is. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | It has zero filler, unlike the first two. |
Artuma
04.25.13 | "prog lists with loads of Floyd are boring"
dunno what to say |
blairosh
04.25.13 | Thomas (or bloke from Masterchef) - the quality control on that album is massively inconsistent. They have never topped DITC, although FTM gives it a good run for its money. Even TBIG is better than Amputecture.
Artuma - Floyd is a good prog band BUT there are far better prog albums out there (in my opinion). |
ButteryBiscuitBass
04.25.13 | I disagree. In my opinion every song off Amputechture show the best of Omar without his wankyness. DITC has too much wanky parts on it - the middle of Cicatriz ESP for example. And same with FTM.
First half of TBIG is gold, then is drops. |
Artuma
04.25.13 | all the floyd albums here are better than any TMV album imo but then again they are hardly even comparable bands |
manosg
04.25.13 | Great list. |
JamieTwort
04.25.13 | all the floyd albums here are better than any TMV album [2]
You could delete the word floyd and this statement would still be true. |
