5 minute + songs

ThePhanastasio · 10-20-2010, 11:32 AM

A few which I really enjoy:

Phish - Maze

Queen - The Prophet's Song

The Grateful Dead - Touch Of Grey

Trey Anastasio - Time Turns Elastic (Acoustic Barn Version)

Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue Raincoat

Themselves - It's Them

Theatrical in nature these guys put on a hell of a live show. Influenced by King Crimson and Primus they make some interesting music. To me this song is considered a "masterpiece".

I don't listen to too many bands who go beyond the five minute mark often (except for Tool) so these are the ones that stand out:

I think what makes a good five minute plus song is when it is based around a nice, simple riff and gets slowly expanded and built up and jammed. I think that's a quality you find in most of these songs...

I can't believe nobody has said Arriving Somewhere But Not Here by Porcupine Tree.

On that note, Anesthetize and The Sky Moves Sideways aren't too shabby either.

Deep Purple's Child in Time, April, Burn and Lazy are all awesome.

I think Master of Puppets is excellent, as well.

I would much prefer 10+ minute songs. It limits the choices and means that you have to look harder for choices and actually listen to the damn things.

Hallowed Be Thy Name - Iron Maiden

Hangar 18 - Megadeth

To Bid You Farewell - Opeth

the full song is actually 10:04, but I guess it had to be shaved down for youtube. Still, it's a very good song. The last three minutes are the best <3

A Don Caballero favourite.

My all-time favourite TMV song

Maserati's best song, IMO

Groovy.

Since almost all of my library is over five minutes, you should make it ten minutes instead.
