Crisis averted. I liked no other Genesis song beside the one I posted. Yes is definitely growing on me like a weed, though.

I've had this song stuck in my day all god damned day, and now that I'm back home I can get it back out.

Granted, I'm only just getting into some prog, but I think King Crimson's last three 70's albums might just be the coolest of the era. Larks' Tongues in Aspic is at least a bit too weird for me to truly take in at the moment, but there are just so many moments of pure alien WTF'ness.

This song is deceptively minimalist (another thing I love, cause minimalism doesn't seem to be too common in prog), but every instrument just contributes in its own way to a very unnerving atmosphere, and it just gets worse (better) as it goes on. Definitely one of the sweetest songs I've heard in a minute.

Can't find the studio version of this song, but whatevs.

Metal drummers can suck Han's dick.

Check out this version of one of the songs from that LP.



And ya, that's Jon Anderson lending some vocals in the intro.

...and I've moved on to Stevie Wonder's Talking Book. This is the first time I've heard this album.
