This is the second poll that lists tracks of 20:00 to 29:59 minute duration from 2010-2019 studio albums by Prog bands. Part one only had four options, a Dream Theater, a the Flower Kings, a Swans, and a Wobbler album, but in this I have filled it up due to the many recommendations by Grumpyprogfan and BrufordFreak (and I have received several more by others subsequently -- thanks to all). I added two more Swans tracks here and several by Electric Orange to their lists, and the other later suggestions. See this topic for the first part: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=129363" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=129363 Note: I left off Helmet of Gnats - High Street (30:11) 2010, High Street which was mentioned in the other topic as I am focusing on ones that are less than thirty minutes. I plan to do a 30 minute plus one later. Amoeba Split - Flight to Nowhere (23:39) (thought of late, even though I knew this well) Arena - The Legend of Elijah Shade (22:39) Battlestations - Vixit I (24:02) La Coscienza di Zeno - Giovani Figlia (22:43) Days Between Stations - In Extremis (21:38) (2013) (added later) Discipline - Rogue (24:04) Electric Moon - (You Will) Live Forever Now (22:41) Electric Orange - Wechselkroete (20:19), Mischwesen (21:01), Behind the Wall of Sheep (20:25), Continuum (22:58) or Misophonia IV (20:00) Antoine Fafard - Mission Ganymede (20:21) or The Journey (20:15) Frogg Cafe - Under Wuhu Son (20:12) Haken - Visions (22:25) Human Prog - Fiori, fruitti, Farfalle (20:00) Magenta - Trojan (26:09) (late addition) Margin - A Mysterious Cup of Tea (23:31) Mother Turtle - Walpurgi Flame (20:15) Mike Oldfield - Return To Ommadawn, Part I (21:10) or Return To Ommadawn, Part II (20:57) (added later, thanks) Steve Roach - Grace Meditation (23:40) Sequentia Legenda - Around the Second Moon (22:45) or Ici et maintenant (25:40) Setna - Tryptique (25:58) Shamblemaths - Conglomeration (or: The Grand Pathetic Suite) (26:54) (late addition) Southern Empire - The Bridge that Binds (28:21) or Crossroads (29:15) Swans - The Apostate (23:01) or Cloud of Unknowing (25:12) The Tea Club - Creature (27:46) Thieves' Kitchen - The Voice of the Lar (20:06) Transatlantic - Into the Blue (25:13) Vak - Hquark (23:04) John Zorn - Interzone-2 (27:37) (I thought of late) Please mention other Prog 2010-2019 track of 20:00 to 29:59 duration ---------- Note: If there is more than one option by an act in the poll, please consider yourself to be voting for one of the tracks that you like, and list that. Those are meant as "or" options. I could not fit in all of the Electric Orange ones, but you can see them in the list above should you be interested. Blank if for some others that get mentioned, please don't vote in the space as "other" until an option is added to the poll line. Thanks. Aside from Swans and Electric Orange, a number of those that were mentioned for this I have in my collection. I'd want to revisit some music before voting. Feel free to vote with very limited knowledge, or if you're not comfortable voting with limited knowledge, consider mentioning the ones you know and like and/or know and dislike, or barely know... :) As it's not a contest, I'm not too fussed about that. |

Damn, I missed getting an entry in here by four years. Out of interest, does anyone know what the longest prog track ever recorded is ? I might try and beat the record. Just to be awkward. My record is 36.32 :-) https://brotherhoodofthemachine.bandcamp.com/track/hin-und-zuruck-3 ------------- |

Voted for Swans - Cloud of Unknowing - their music simply cuts deeper than most newer prog. But Vak - Hquark is really good too. Funnily it reminds me of Mia's Cornonstipicum. Which I'm certain is pure coincidence. Setna - Tryptique is also nice but a little too squeaky clean for its own good. I wish it had some grit to it. Maybe its just the production. So that's a top three i suppose. But I haven't even heard half of these

Got to be pretty close--but, then, some of those Prog Electronic pieces seem to continue over several discs/albums. ------------- Drew Fisher https://progisaliveandwell.blogspot.com/ |

That's most of what I have really known from this poll, but I am mostly in a cloud of forgetting, as Swans is the only one whose music I recall. I have enjoyed all of the albums those are off, and have enjoyed The Frogg Cafe, the Battlestations, and I have been very big on Electric Orange's Volume 10 -- the track from that in this poll being "Behind The Wall Of Sheep" It likely would be between that Electric Orange track and the Swans and methinks Swans would still take it for me. Not altogether dissimilar in style either. :) I was into Electric Orange before getting into Swans. And Yes, VAK's is very good, playing it now and remember it. |

^ Mike, if you have ones that would fit the parameters of this poll not in the polls, which I would think you do, if you would list up to three of your very favourite primo applicable tracks, then I would much appreciate it (hoping to fill in the blanks).
Thanks very much, Marek. Added to the end of the poll. And thanks Will and Drew for your copious contributions in the short poll. |

| I don't know many of these, but I do love Mike Oldfield's "Return to Ommadawn", side A specially. Empire of the Clouds by Iron Maiden was also great for me, though it missed the 20 min mark by a pair of minutes. |

| ^ Thanks, I had thought about and then promptly forgot about Mike Oldfield before. I haven't heard Return to... yet, but an important name to include for sure. |

I've given it a vote... it really is a surprisingly good album. ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

Arena. It's not their best, but it's still better than 90% of other prog. I also like Visions, but it's also not the pinnacle of Haken. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

Nice that you changed the poll to include it, I already gave it a vote too. If you do like 70's Mike Oldfield, you should like this one too. It's not often that an artist can come back to his younger and most acomplished sound (at least as far as I'm concerned) so long after, but this album sounds like it could have come out right after Incantations and not sound out of place, nor be inferior to any of the other previous albums. |

I do like his 70s work. I should probably return to his 1975 Ommadawn first, as that was a particular favourite of mine of his and it has been considerable years since I returned to it. Then listen to Incantations again, which hasn't been quite as long for me. Then Return to Ommadawn. I still have only heard, other than bits and bobs, his original Tubular Bells rather than the sequels that without looking them up I will call Tubular Bells 2: The Bells Strike Back (aka The Revenge) and Tubular Bells 3: the Return of the Bells. The bells are back and this time it's personal. |

^^ I have to second Dellinger's view here; it really would fit around the Incantations era and it's an album which will bear repeated listens. Ommadawn itself is not an album I've heard in a long time, and I will shortly invest in a remastered copy for my collection. Presently reacquainting myself with the remastered Hergest Ridge (I used to live at the foot of it!), in between my love affair with Magenta. ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

I just mentioned in another thread that I'm so much of an album person it's hard doing these song polls but Frogg Cafe, Setna and Shamblemaths standout for me. Picked the latter. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |
