Does this band have a female member because it definitely sounds like a woman singing near the beginning

its to mitigate any chance of him being disappointed - youre now stuck in the position where he was right all along, or you enjoy something he does too

Potsy wouldn't like this because it's kinda proggy and Part 3 has sounds that like sound like shit plopping into water idk



maybe he'd like it, part 3 is why this isn't a 4.5 though

It's a stretched out epic piece of pop music, strongly structured with multiple progressed into sections, but not in a jazz or classical way



RYM lists it as Progressive Pop and I'm 100% inclined to agree (Progressive pop just being a poppier cousin of progressive rock, IE: Kate Bush or ELO or this)

I mean if progressive pop is a fake genre, I have no trouble calling this a light poppy progressive rock album, but that just seems like I'm dancing around the term progressive pop

yeah but calling this a poppy progressive rock album is just dancing around the fact that this is one long dream pop song that really spill into rock territory at all (unlike the releases either side). ambient poop bit notwithstanding, it'd be pedantic to consider this multiphase in the first place if the tracks weren't separated for listener convenience

rule 27 of life says that if you're dancing around genres you're probably doing something wrong tbh

Progressive pop was real, (ELO, Supertramp, Alan Parson Project) but people misuse it 90% of the time so it's basically a fake genre.

If it's barely rock music it can't dream pop.

"it'd be pedantic to consider this multiphase"



1. I don't know, part 3 sounds nothing like parts 1, 2, 4 and 5, so it does feel very multisectioned in an obvious way, actually same goes for part 4 being pretty different from 1, 2, and 5.

2. The "Bah bah bah" section of Part 4 feels so much like one of those prog cooldowns right before the big epic end of Part 5

3. Do non-prog pop/rock songs really lean on a strong leading musical theme that appears only at the beginning and the end like a huge epic reprise of the opening section?



Even if dream pop is the first genre someone would label this, prog deff still fits too, prog dream pop ;)

But, like, each of those sections is 14 minutes long.

Long Season.

It's a 4.5 until you're listening on the toilet, and then you realize it is a 5
