05.08.12 | This is kinda similar to your last list. |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | What are you talking about? There is a complete lack of Jethro Tull, thus making it completely different. Also the addition of Led Zeppelin. Are you blind? Can you not see the differences? |
JamieTwort
05.08.12 | Jethro Tull are the best band ever. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.08.12 | 8/10 on this are the same as the last list. Are you blind? Did you even make these lists? |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | Wow. How ignorant can you be? MY top ten bands can be whatever MY top ten bands want to be. Just because it was hard to find some amazing bands that weren't Jethro Tull doesn't mean that they're invalid. My favorite bands happen to be static from list to list. If you don't like it, go listen to Comus and stop bitching. |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | Also, it's 9 out of 10. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.08.12 | Woah, I was so blinded by the diversity of your taste that I forgot how to count |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | Forgot to count? Well I don't care. Listen to Jethro Tull, and if you have nothing nice to say, shut your mouth. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.08.12 | Nah, am on an Anathema binge atm |
Jruined
05.08.12 | I'm not sure if I'm offended by the juvenile "look at me" advertising tactics or happy that there are at least 9 fantastic (well good anyway in LZ case) bands on this list and the last one.
I'll go with happy. |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | I'm glad. |

05.08.12 | Unsure if troll using a shield of great bands to protect his identity or annoying attention-seeking prog fan: proceed with caution |
Jruined
05.08.12 | me too. now tell me why I should listen to rest? Nestling them into a mix of classic prog/rock doesn't tell me why I should listen to them. How does the band fit in with their contemporaries? How are they not simply "the youngest in the Avante Garde scene"?
If they are part of the avante garde scene why is L.Z. on here and not Henry Cow, Uzed, Thinking Plague, Magma, John Zorn, or a plethora of other artists?
you know just wondering these things. |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | Avant Garde can be frickin Progressive too, seeing as it's Avant Garde, aka experimental. I like that band too, but the Rest in my list is frickin prog rock from Ireland. Also, don't diss Jethro Tull.
We together on this? |
sniper
05.08.12 | no one has said anything about them being avant garde, which is good, because they aren't. |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | How aren't they? |
sniper
05.08.12 | avant-garde is a term usually reserved for music by composers of art music. these bands pushed the envelope of rock music, but so did minor threat and the beatles and you won't hear many people trying to call them avant-garde. just because a band plays complicated riffs and has abnormal song structure doesn't make them avant-garde. the few rock musicians i think can be labelled that way are guys like frank zappa and maybe toby driver. |
Jruined
05.08.12 | I'm willing to listen to Rest, but I'm curious how any of the other artists relate? Why do I want to listen to a stale rehash of
the last 40 years, with a few newer genres mixed in? I'll just go listen to Mr. Bungle, Secret Chiefs 3, or Sleepytime Gorilla
Museum for that.
edit: not that the last three are stale, but they did it without making anything more than subtle nods to their precursors.

05.08.12 | Sniper01 got it. The only band on here that kinda rolled that way was K.C.
Zappa reference wins my heart, when are you pushing a band sniper? I'll listen without question.

05.08.12 | aqualungcancer seems kinda awesome. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.08.12 | Nah, he's kinda annoying, especially since he has good taste, so he's hard to slam |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | Thanks boys. Tull represent. |
johnnyblaze
05.08.12 | you forgot Kansas eh |
aqualungcancer
05.08.12 | Maybe if the list had been longer, I would have considered it eh |
