That sucks, man!! Never was a big fan of his sound but a big fan of how revolutionary he was. One of a kind.

Huge loss. Fuck cancer!

I liked his voice. And he’s got a decent solo career. It sucks, man... Another decade and all the good people from that era will be gone. At least I got to see Fripp.

@s4tch Ken Hensley from Uriah Heep is dead

It sucks how underestimated Uriah Heep is as a band. Sure Sabbath are the godfathers of metal but Byron was doing the falsetto metal thing before Ian Gillian or anyone else. Loved the band.

how could i miss this band so far: it has daniel gildenlöw and marco minnemann, so it must be good

Every time there’s a new post I’m already like “Ok, who died this time?”

Have you heard this one yet? Definitely one of my favorites from last year. Such a solid album from song one to the last which is so rare these days and it’s a concept album

You’re only old if your mind is old

Absolutely love Tony Levin and enjoyed the song but man can’t stand these modern metal drums anymore. It’s so generic and machine-like.

agreed about the music. completely loved the first two lte albums when they came out, but i stopped listening to that kind of overly technical stuff years ago.

wilson though...


beautiful sound, i can barely remind myself not to crank up my headphone amp to the max. wilson went full pop, and it suits him.

an other band that walked a similar path, dunno whether i posted it already:



very good songs, whatever we call the genre.

Damn bro that Ulver shit... Tears For Fears called and want their sound back Cool stuff!

Yesterday I was listening to that new SW material. I'm still on the fence about it, I like it all but I do miss the proggish-jazzy approach he had on previous records.

I guess after tasting a bit of "real" success topping the charts he realized he needed a drastic change. Can't blame him. Dude's been playing his heart out for how many decades now? He deserves it.

I found this guy a few months back and I'm still completely obsessed about him. His first record is ok but the other two are gorgeous. Worth checking out. If you're into that Marvin Gaye soul thing, which I absolutely am, you'll enjoy this. (Ps that intro is so Pink Floyd it hurts)

Sadly, that's the state of rock music though. More dying than producing much of note.

I thought the same thing. Sounded like someone fed a music AI with the T4F back catalog.

Don't get me wrong... I really like a lot of Pink Floyd.

But this reminded me of one of my favorite album reviews, and it was one of the shortest. It came from JD Considine in Musician magazine on Pink Floyd's 1988 Delicate Sound of Thunder: Live:

"Proof that you can't listen to a light show."
