I had no idea that because something had 19 tracks and exceeded a length of an hour, it started to become slightly inaccessible.

I could understand that if they were talking about the 9 minute song on American Idiot, but nothing about it makes sense. Aren't most rock albums an hour or so and are broken up into a bunch of tracks?

19 tracks? LOL

They must be about 3 or 4 minutes each.

If the Ramones made an album over an hour long consisting of heaps of tracks does it become inaccessible?

I keep reading that sentence, but it won't make sense.


The only way is could be better is if it included the phrase "21st Century Breakdown is Green Day's Quadrophenia." I would probably kill people.

Oh I don't mind the music so much, it's the vocals I'm not sure about.

I'm listening to Alaska.

Apparently there's an instrumental version of Fear of a Blank Planet as well.  I may give it a listen.

The vocalist has a somewhat different timbre to his voice to that of Akerfeldt, someone you're more familiar with anyway. To be fair, a few years ago had I heard BtBaM I wouldn't have enjoyed the vocals much either, but I warmed to that style over time.
And yes, Selkies has quite a great instrumental melodic section in there that I love.

It has a fade out though... ewwww.

Someone should stick Alaska on Rico's MP3 player without telling him and label all the tracks as by Tangerine Dream. LOL

BtBaM have some cool instrumentality. Big smile

I really prefer listening to BtBaM  to DT now, especially as of late what with DT's keyboardist ruining songs with w**kery. I'm actually really starting to agree with the people that preferred the old DT stuff that had the keyboardist who preferred atmosphere to high tech soloing.
I prefer metal bands that bring the technicality to the riffs rather than the solos too, it makes for a better song.
