Fun Stuff > BAND

Favorite songs in 5/4.

<< < (8/8)

Patrick:
"Mars" from "The Planets" by Gustav Hölst.

And also the "Mission Impossible" theme.

Rubby:

--- Quote from: Storm Rider ---The issue I have with irregular time signatures is that too many people refer to certain bands (Tool, Dillinger Escape Plan) as 'progressive' because they can dick around with time signatures. OK, you can play shit in twenty-four eighths time. What the fuck do you want, a medal?
--- End quote ---

I'm gonna go with the "who cares" statment again. It might be prog, it might not be prog. Now, dont think I'm defending these bands; I'm not the hugest Tool fan and I've only ever heard that DEP ep with Patton singing, but it almost sounds like you're criticizing bands who play anything but 4/4 or 3/4 without standing behind the "progressive" moniker. I dont think these people are writing songs while thinking "is this prog enough" at all times.

SpacemanSpiff:
Whoever mentioned Take Five by Dave Brubeck - I love you.

Also: Drive Like Jehu - Here Come The Rome Plows is 5/4 I think.
And of course Anisette and Information & Belief by June of 44.
