And if you are going to mention Happy Rhodes and Kate Bush, then you also have to mention Jane Siberry. ;)
None of their social media makes any such statement. And their concert schedule was announced some time ago. I wonder if the site has confused them with the Mexican band Magma?
Hey, it used to be Magma. Which I still love though they have been awful quiet of late. Jinjer is a recent find so I am in the "new convert" stage of life, quite evangelical. We all have our...
Oh, jeez. I finally did it. I pitched my entire collection of Downbeat magazine, which goes all the way back to 1970. I had carried these issues with me from home to home, and finally realized, now...
In the original post, you asked about Ukrainian prog bands. I want to add my latest faves, Jinjer, to that list. They come from Donetsk, have been given leave to spread the word on Ukraine and are...
Guys, you must add Tatiana Shmayluk of Jinjer to this list. An astonishing singer.

To me, the greatest travesty is that Jack Casady is not on this list.
Which version?
Earlier today I saw an article where Alyssa Rosenberg interviewed Ken Burns on the importance of Cowboy Carter and black country music, and my first thought was, why are two white...
Laughable in the extreme. No Jack Casady, for example. Wooten in the 30s, Jack Bruce high 20s. Huge recency bias, few jazz bassists. I know it's clickbait but have at it.
...
I like them both. But I do not like okra. This is also in the category: food.
;)
I am just loving Ukrainian metalcore band Jinjer- great musicians, superb singer, and watch what Eugene does on bass!

Our definitions differ. Product to me is something that exists only to be sold, quality and meaning be damned. I understand music is made in a marketplace. Magma does not make product. This record...
It does nothing for me. To me, it is just product.
Shifting the story here. I grew up in Oak Park, MI and 6 house down the street from me on Avon St. lived the Fieger family. Their middle child was Doug, who went on to fame and fortune as leader of...
Might be time to read Bill Martin again and understand what he means by the blues orthodoxy in relation to prog. Bill makes a reasoned case that critics had an affinity toward blues forms because...
Stuff by Herbie Hancock (Mwandishi) and Julian Priester fit the bill.

Great new interview with Steve Wilson, listing bands he and records he loves. Zeit by TD rates high! And Abba!

A surprising omission is Moving Gelatine Plates.
Boy, it's striking how much his guitar sounds like Frank is playing!
I have the new Jinjer, Live in Los Angeles DVD on order now:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygb0lWBS_iE&t=2s
6 weeks ago I first viewed the video for Jinjer's song "Pisces" and I posted a thread on it after seeing what their singer Tatiana Shmayluk could do- I was literally struck dumb with awe. Subsequent...
I saw this fascinating article scanning google sites. It is a paper that discusses how they created an algorithm to generate bass lines in any style desired. So, I looked it up and found the link to...
Today it has been:
Jinjer- Wallflower
The move to 107 is only temporary, though. They are referring to it as a pop-up station.
I watched the entire interview with Mohini and found it really interesting- she is pretty voluble but also has great stories to tell.
My favorite clip with her is the one she does with Federico...
Same here! I do not care which version, either.
For me, 1969- which, to the point, I was 16.
We both have to get with it, Duncan!
Meantime, here is live Jinjer, from Hellfest 2022. Pretty good stuff- jagged and angular.

But if I were to...
King Crimson does Jupiter on one of their early DG live discs.
They are worth a listen! I haven't been this excited by a band in years. Honest.
I came here to post a song by Arch Enemy with Alissa White-Gluz singing- she has a more standard metal vocal style...
Hi, Duncan! How've you been? Good to hear from you. I am riding a route in TX Hill Country in April, 300 miles over 6 days. :D
As to the Jinjer video, I am well aware that the growl vocal is part...
Cool- thanks! Will listen asap.
I've never heard of any of these, so will definitely check them out- the value of progears!
There are times when I cannot figure out Magma time signatures. With Meshuggah, I can never figure out the time signatures. It is like they are the Don Ellis of djent!
This was an interesting quote about the time signatures Meshuggah uses: "In polymeters typically used by Meshuggah, the guitars might play in odd meters such as 5/16 or 17/16, while drums play in...
On what evidence? The clip I posted is 6 years old. The band has continued to play all that time, at places like Bloodstock and other events. Until now you had never heard of them- so how is this...
Nothingface is sooooo good!
I posted this on another thread I started, but will post here because this was a metal band I had never heard of until last week. This song has 68 million views, due to the astonishing singer,...
How very postmodern! And of course to him, it is not music, because it does not meet his criteria to be considered music. To the point, I know few people who would listen to any of these bands. The...
Love the song, love the changes, love it all- huge energy, crazy time signatures, and super musicianship. None of these guys are poseurs. They can play!
Look, people like what they like and if...
What the hell time signature is this monster in? What an Adrenalin rush! And listen to Hakke's drumming- amazing stuff!
ANd now I will have to have Chimpspanner as well!
If I read the history properly, it was a member of Periphery who coined the term. I would like to get Tesseract soon; I have Meshuggah and just got a copy of Jinjer Live in Melbourne. I am also not...
I was today years old when I learned of a new to me (but already known) genre of music, djent. I had always assumed that the correct term was math rock, to describe bands such as Meshuggah and others...
I have heard Slayers, which was created by Amber Benson and heavily features Charisma Carpenter. I think it is good and it was a great way for Amber to include people that were hurt by Whedon and...
Okay, so I was toodling around youtube, and began to see a lot of posts where people were reacting to the band Jinjer. Given that I love Diana Ankudinova, just the fact that there was this interest,...
I bet you also liked it when Canned Heat used it. For songs like Jaw Harp Raga?

I honestly am confused. I know I had this on LP long before that. Perhaps he had a different disc. What does discogs say?
Sancious is a great choice!
1976, Shadowfax:

This will sound a bit churlish, because I just love Mohini Dey- but I am not a real fan of technically gifted bassists using slaps and pops at high speed to little musical impact. Mohini can really...
Dave, 1994 was the remaster. The original came out in the mid-70s.
You should add in Darryl Dobson, The Mind Electric- it is killer fusion. Here is an example (it really kicks in at around 3 minutes):

I value this site more than I will ever be able to say. I have met some in real life- rode RAGBRAI with Duncan, for example- and found simpatico members related to my love of Magma and of other...

When I saw him live, at Michigan State back in the early 70s, he entered the show from the balcony and slid down a rope to the main stage. In my life, I do not think I have ever laughed harder (the...
Thanks for exposing me to a lot of really great music there, Bob, none of which is, well, chickenshit. :D I also appreciate the technical details.
I suspect that when it comes to fuzz bass, the...
I listened to the entire half hour show here and it is actually very interesting and on point, and is not about why all 90s rock sounds alike. It is more about the producers and what they did.
This is akin to comic book collectors who purchase alternate covers of the same issue because they are collectors.
For me, I will buy vinyl now, but only if it is music I want. I do not care if it...
Yeti, yes. But Combat Astronomy, no. Thanks for suggesting!
