trip-hop, downtempo, electronic.

Sepultura - 1989 "Beneath the Remains"
I was recently given a rare disc. Rare because it was bought way back in 1989 in the USA, a real antique, so to speak). This is the band's first album.
I hadn't listened to this album before, but I put it on, and it's not bad.

You Me At Six - Sweet Feet

Metallica – Mama said

Dream Theater - 1992 "Images and Words"
It seems I'm the last one on the forum who hasn't listened to this band)
But since I had a craving for some progressive bands yesterday, why not listen to a classic of the genre?
So, here it is. I generally liked the music, although nothing really stood out. And I'm having some cognitive dissonance, or maybe I'm just completely off:
I thought that if it's progressive, then it should be technically complex and advanced music, with unusual rhythms, etc. But here, I didn't really hear that (although, of course, there are some moments), the music seemed not simple, but not really complex either. Hmm)

HammerFall - 2005 "Chapter V: Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken"
And here the music is quite simple, but very soulful and pleasant)

New Politics - My Love

Splean – Altavista (Another Point of View)

Khandra

Beto Vazques Infinity - Soldiers of Hope

Alcest - Les Iris

I'm also experiencing cognitive dissonance, or maybe I'm just being weird:
I thought that progressive music should be technically complex and advanced, with unusual rhythms, etc. But here, I don't really hear that (although, of course, there are some parts), and the music seems neither simple nor particularly complex to me. Hehe)

I actually really like this album; it has a good balance between complexity and beauty, in my opinion. If you want something more complex, listen to Systematic Chaos) Or Tool - 10000 days.

Epica - Presto
