prog albums with unexpectedly satisfying country detours—are there literally any other examples of this


Yungblud as the Red-Haired Foreigner
Death in Venice remake starring Bob Dylan and MGK
The Red Bed, designed by William Burges, who died in it—dying in your own artwork is the ultimate flex

The sea is just so vast… Could it have been made by the tears shed by Pokémon?
The slowed-down “The Way It Is” piano line on that first Chuquimamani-Condori edit is so heavy
The early-‘70s electrified singer-songwriter album is one of the supreme art forms




I’ve had this keyboard, I wonder how often it accidentally presses the “Ode to Joy” button
Losing it over this therapy horse that vigorously plays the piano to wake kids up from anesthesia
just one long “yeeeaaahh” instead of writing a fourth line… 10/10 way to end an album
Would love to find an entire dub techno album that sounds like “Mutism” by Basic Channel, closest I can think of is some of Rod Modell’s most austere stuff but that’s not as dirty as what I’m looking for
I learned about so many movies from Simpsons jokes, it's still hard not to think of "Children of a Lesser Clod," "A Fridge Too Far" or "Sperms of Endearment" when I hear the names of the actual movies
Any sheltopusik fans in the house
