A friend was just discussing with me minutes ago about sending Mirror Reaper as a joke in a parallel roulette.. Never heard that song btw.

Is my song number 13?

Guessed letters: BATMAN Q. PRICE

[Evermind]

You should post the impressions here too I guess. I haven't read any guesses before so I may guess stuff that already've been guessed. Anyway, I'll give one last shot at this:

4 - Tom Waits by not Tomislav if not then reverse with 4
5 - Tom Waits by Tomislav if not then reverse with 5
20 - IQ/RJ, if not, then IQ is who the hell knows, 22
6 - wolfking with Pyramaze, if not then 18?
Valis Ablaze is 19

[ariich]

You should post the impressions here too I guess.

I did that last round but then people (Katt!) didn't go back to the original impressions post, which is linked in my OP, so.

4 - Tom Waits by not Tomislav if not then reverse with 4
5 - Tom Waits by Tomislav if not then reverse with 5
20 - IQ/RJ, if not, then IQ is who the hell knows, 22
6 - wolfking with Pyramaze, if not then 18?

HOW DO YOU DO THIS

Valis Ablaze is 19

Finally you get something wrong.

[The Walrus]

I'm convinced Ruslan is the result of a deep secret Russian lab experiment

[Evermind]

I listened to that Valis Ablaze album once and found it pleasant enough but not something to return to, so I figured why not 19.

Hey, 4/5 isn't bad.

[ariich]

Hey, 4/5 isn't bad.

It's freakily impressive is what it is.

LIGHT OF DAY

DAY OF DAAAARKNEEEESSSSS

I actually bought LODDOD. Listened to it once. Never did again.

Same applies for Dopesmoker, but I actually listened to that one in full in Youtube once before, so technically I've heard it twice. I also occasionally turn this on to annoy friends, because the first ten minutes like nothing happens.

[wolfking]

LODDOD is in my top 50 albums of all time.  Quite simply one of the most amazing pieces of art I've ever heard.

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

Light of Day, Day of Darkness is really good for the first 30-40 minutes, but the saxophone/screaming lady section kind of loses me a bit.

[wolfking]

Light of Day, Day of Darkness is really good for the first 30-40 minutes, but the saxophone/screaming lady section kind of loses me a bit.

Strange section indeed but the guitar solo is worth the 40 minute buildup.

Yep and yep. The guitar solo after that section with this slow quiet acoustic buildup is amazing.

[LordCost]

Is my song number 13?

It is!

[Crow]

yeah admittedly the snoozefest in the middle probably could've been cut but otherwise LoDDoD is great

[The Walrus]

I don't get the hype behind LODDOD. It's.. definitely a thing but holy fuck does it overstay its welcome. Crimson by Edge of Sanity is way better imo and 20 minutes shorter 

[Evermind]

Understandable, after all you're the guy who doesn't like concept prog metal albums

[The Walrus]

I like a COUPLE but yeah they're almost always pretentious trash  at least power metal is up front about it all being dumb magic shit

[Crow]

crimson has such awful production i can barely listen to it :shrug:

but that should be right up your alley mr beast of the wall

[Crow]

the apologist has excellent production. everything like, sounds good, you just don't like the mix

crimson's guitars and vocals and drums and everything sound like they're being filtered through a dialup connection

[The Walrus]

I mean you're not wrong there but I'd strongly disagree that 'everything like, sounds good' with The Apologist 

That's like listening to a guy with dysentery shit his brains out and saying, "Well, sounds like the plumbing's working!"

[Shadow Ninja 2.0]

yeah, Crimson sounds great.

[Elite]

Try listening to Jane Doe (the album) by Converge just for the lolz

[ariich]

I didn't really like Crimson when I checked it out, but that was 8 years ago so who knows what I'll think now.

[Crow]

you'll like it less it's aged miserably

[Lethean]

I love Light of Day, Day of Darkness.  Except the yodeling-like part is way too long.  They didn't do that when they performed it at ProgPower though.  That set was incredible.  Words can't even describe it.

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

LoDDoD is really good, if not great. Dopesmoker I've listened to a few times and I don't get the hype for it. Crimson is again in the really good, if not great category.

As far as other really long songs (like north of the 40 minute mark) that I really like:
Fauna - The Hunt (this is 80 minutes long, and with lots of field recording and whatnot, but it's mostly Atmospheric black metal with plenty of ambient passages, maybe I'll feature it in my black metal thread, but I don't think anyone here will like it)
Monolithe - I, II, III, and IV (these are all more than 50 minutes long and fall in to the realm of Funeral Doom with tons of atmosphere, although III and IV dive more in to prog metal territory)
Ephemeral Sun - Harvest Aorta (40+ minutes of nice instrumental Prog Rock with some cool keyboards)

[Buddyhunter1]

From what I've heard of The Apologist the production's totally fine, idk what Katt is on about

[Crow]

katt btw I know I sent you the one song as a joke in your roulette but go check out the full thing of A Novelist - Folie i'm sure you'll l o v e it

[jingle.boy]

Jingle's 10

Never would've guessed that.  Well, maybe after 11 or 15 attempts.

You are a Roulette Savant, that's for sure.

[The Walrus]

katt btw I know I sent you the one song as a joke in your roulette but go check out the full thing of A Novelist - Folie i'm sure you'll l o v e it

No.
