Kino
Presto Ballet- Peace among the Ruins
Kansas-Power, In the Spirit of Things
Deep Purple-Stormbringer
Advent-Cantus Firmus
(this one is technically very good but it just sounds tired after 10 or so plays)

Fully agree with these "if you want something bad" recommendation. I did not mention these in my earlier post just because I had not bothered to review them.

Well the idea put forth was "I feel like listening to some music that I would not like at all and would hate intensely but like it just enough to stand it every once in a while. The sort of album you would return to a store after a few listens."
 
Presto Ballet do exactly that to me.  I don't hate it but it kind of annoys me and same with Kino and the others. Also the fact they cancelled their gig at Calprog 3 weeks before the show last year leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Wink

I disagree with The Mars Volta part, but about the second part of the quote... man, you surely know about music. Wisest words EVER...ClapClap
 
Really, I recently gave a friend the oportunity to listen to Kayo Dot's...He's a man of varied taste that likes everything....
 
...I almost lost his friendship because of my "musical gift"...LOLLOL
 
When someone tries to sell you 14 MINUTES OF REPETITION as "avant garde art", well...
 
... you're the one who has to decide what to buy.
 
Man! those 60 minutes (actually, 300 for the five times I listened to it) would've been better used....I could've catch on on the latest soap operas on morning-TV!!!Big%20smileBig%20smileTongue

I am sorry to put it so bluntly, but The T has certainly lost the knowledge of where a joke ends and annoyance starts, as well as the difference between opinion and fact which he has been promoting as fierely as none other (not that I can do that either). I mean, I used to not be bothered, but reading the same message of the same content and attitude in every thread irks me a lot and makes me question if progressive forums ever progress.

C'mon, Igor, cheer up!
 
These forums are usually full of praise (often undeserved praise) and it's good to hear some negative opinions, provided they are given in civilised and rather humourous way, for a change.
 
Also from this thread you can learn about  other people's dislikes, and it can be very useful for you (it is for me anyway), as it highlights musical tastes of others here and it makes it easier to establish how reliable their recommendation would be for you.

Are you talking about my Kayo Dot references? Oh sorry.... It's just my own inmature way of getting back at the countless of anti-DT cheap-shots I read in every thread (even non-musical onesConfused) every day...LOLBig%20smile.... Yes, it's childish.... No questions about it.
 
By the way, if we're around here by year 2012, you know what will be my comments on every thread? "As awful as the Kayo Dot album from 2006"... LOL... Just kidding... Let's wait till june and I will quit crying like a baby.... Until then, please don't take offense, none is meant.
 
EDIT: And by the way, I think this thread from the start wasn't really trying to be THE most serious or objective thread ever.... Big%20smile

I may disagree with you and all, but that isn't what matters. I am just tired of reading the same comment in every thread I am unfortunate enough to see you post. I don't recall doing the same thing in every topic related to TFK and DT, for instance.

Pink Floyd
King Crimson except for Red
Led Zeppelin
The Who
The Beatles
Lamb Lies Down on Broadway-doesn't even sound like Genesis
Relayer- Too much noise, too much lack of it

That's probably enough for now
