[@dreamlarking]

I love this band so much.

[@hellyfornication]

damn, i love the fuckin amazing lightning on damo's face. leftside blue, rightside red. fuck, this album is almost howly. trying listening it when you're half a sleep, with cooked brains and just a little bit of consciouns left, on the edge of dawn. you'll be a different person

[@williampartridge4595]

This was a discovery and a half. I've lived in NY all my life and never knew about this band until now.

[@fatchants]

This is MUSIC. People forget what that word means, and how it means something that breathes living human energy and digs deeper and deeper in. God bless these guys, wish I knew about them when I was a teenager doing acid to '70s Floyd. It has the same, soul..

[@rhinoskin7550]

Psychedelic music is alive and well

[@fatchants]

@@rhinoskin7550 You're probably unaware of what early Pink Floyd were doing with lyrical phrasing.. The thing that made Syd Barrett a genius is not what people thought, he was much more smug than people realized, He did with the musicality of lyrical phrases what before then had only been done with musical phrases, the LSD-encoded language of hyperspace: Forget about the meaning of the words here and say this like it's just music, accents where the capital letters are: ifYOUwish they'reONthedish.. later Floyd, and try to get how this reminds us of "pigLatin": desperaSHUN istheengliSHWAY. say it fast. when you're peaking on psychedelics, if you're properly immersed, this is how it unravels. lyrical phrases of mine: AREbo-i LINGtothesurface AREfoldingiNpurpose shakeOFFanyOLDfleas IScleane NOUGHtobreathe if you've done serious psychedelics, and listen to the right music and headphones in a dark room, you understand what this is. The very very few people I've learned this from, the select few of the many people who have done L and really got this, as far as I can tell, are: McCoy Tyner (you'd be very surprised, some of his solos with Coltrane, who admitted LSD completely changed the course of his music, yet he didn't seem to get this as much as McCoy), Keith Emerson, Jorma Kaukonen, and probably first and foremost, because he taught this to Coltrane, Sun Ra. although I have listened to a lot of Sun Ra that disappointingly didn't seem to have this going on. Jimi Hendrix totally understood this, if you've ever heard the performance of Isabella at Woodstock, pick it apart, it's fucking mindbending how brilliant his composition was. not everybody bothered to push this envelope all the time, only 70s Pink Floyd, Jorma, McCoy Tyner, and Keith Emerson. The others are found to do this we're in and out. if you've ever heard Diamanda Galás play piano, and heard an interview where she speaks about "speaking in tongues like Jimi Hendrix dude", THIS is what she's talking about 😎 Papa John Creach, with Hot Tuna.. find the song here on YT called "want you to know", it's one of the most psychedelic solos I've ever heard some more from Floyd: OFthefa CESinthecrowd, aBOVEthetree LINEintheclouds. every time a syllable is broken up into more than one note, it is specifically geared toward making a phrase like this work: the second time Roger Waters says "cry" in the song "Pigs", "Cry-AI-ai-ai-AI-y", like when a person make an expression like "AI-a-AI-ai". hm this will explain everything: take 6 "na"s you can go "nana NA nana NA" or "Na-nana na NA-na" like a kid teasing. ^ do that out loud a couple times and you should be like "holy shit" Pink Floyd 'encoded' the kid-teasing sounds in what sounded unsuspectingly "who me?" on the surface, that was literally their whole thing. no one speaks and no one tries 😎 some of these you can get by thinking about them after eating cannabis, but to *effortlessly* grasp this, you have to be in a peak L experience and be fully immersed... and focused, and maybe mathematically inclined to begin with. 🙏

[@RockyTop85]

Most asinine thing I have ever heard, as a musician of over 25 years. This is not music…

[@ayuh8911]

Pink Floyd? Nah can is way better. Pink Floyd is like square dancing.

[@fatchants]

@@ayuh8911 no no.. you are young and naïve and have not done LSD and listen to 70s PINK FLOYD, very obvious. I highly recommend trying it it is a life-changing experience. Specifically the songs "pillow of winds" or "echoes" on peak LSD. as wonderful as Can was, they didn't have nearly the comprehensive scope, the landscape of psychedelic vision, the compositional wholesomeness and brilliance of a song like "echoes" - AND.... remember that if you're an adult and discussing the work of massive rock bands like Pink Floyd or can we're talking about the lyrical content, the message contained… Can was almost nothing compared to Pink Floyd which had deep, wisely-subtle references to plant psychedelics and shamanism. Pink Floyd were like Terence McKenna. or James Joyce. I say this with humility and respect, you have a fuck of a lot to learn buddy 👑

[@DarkAngelEU]

oh to live those days where this music sounded like a faded dream

[@cosmiclust9492]

I recently discovered this group. Man, they're true. Tops with me rite now. Along with another German prog. band Amon Duul. It can't get any better. But I've thought that a few times in the past.

I heard somewhere that Sid Vicious´s main influence for his " drumming " in their Flowers of Romance band was excatly this drummer ...

I love stuff like this I’ve been into music for 50 years and every so often a band comes into your radar that you had no clue what so ever about. This band really “can” jam and the lead singer is so untraditional I love it!

[@dirtlevel]

Welcome to the fold

[@slobomotion]

This group is among a bunch of artists I can still not describe, as the recordings I still have and enjoy seem to come from various countries. I loved EGE BAMYASI and regret that was one recording I always could only borrow and never did find on vinyl to buy. SILVER APPLES, AMON DUUL II, CAN, and even to some extent MAN ... in my head, they're kind of together. Generally, this is music I like and few I know want to hear or appreciate, so I listen by myself -- a pleasure!

[@elizabethhann4028]

Is that *really* what he's singing? I must confess, I've always heard it as "I feel pretty in a chimney...", but Heaven knows, I may be wrong. Did the original vinyl release of *Tago Mago* come with a lyric-sheet? I hope it did; I feel like only the lyric-sheet that came with the album would have the real truth. Online-posted lyrics cannot be trusted; not in the case of Can, anyway.
