Difficult To Get Into Bands

I don't know TMV very well, Deloused has some exciting songs and some that  may take
some more listening to, basically i don't think it's so very hard to get into this band, you like their approach or you don't.

With Gentle Giant it's two way for me, i like most of their songs within 10 listens if not  it tends to stay that way.  Raconteur Troubadour for instance seen by many as a great song still escapes me but i like most of the rest of the Octopus songs.

Apart from the first 2 albums and Red i think KC is rather inaccessible. Lizard did nothing for me at first, now it think it's great (apart from Haskell's vocals that is). I also love Islands now but i still think  Lark's tongue in Aspic is very difficult and somewhat weird.

KC  clearly gets my vote from the bands listed here. Personally from well known bands for me Tool is the most difficult. I give it a try sometimes but it doesn't stick with me.

All are OK with me. I'm a very patient guy, and I don't judge too quickly. If I don't like a CD I play it tons of times anyway.

Barclay James Harvest
























just kidding

I still cannot get TMV. A lot of people love them, but I just can't get their music. It's almost unlistenable for me.

All of them weren't that hard for me to get into, I liked all of them first listen (except for when I heard knots, but I liked pretty much every other GG song on this site).

Each one was great from the first listen!!!

I can see why people find it difficult to get into the Mars Volta but I loved them from the first listen. I just like everything about their music.

Whoah, wait, how hard are Gentle Giant to get into?

I find TMV pretty heavy-going in that the music is so dense and heavy.......i actually got a headache listening to Frances The Mute!!!
