FFO: rock operas, long songs

My favourite from Fauna. Love that chorus, and how it's different every time.

A common frog around Western Australia that sounds a little bit like a motorbike when it croaks. They're full of character, I love having them visit.

Saw these guys a few years ago. People went nuts for this song, one guy fell over with his glass of beer and it shattered everywhere. The floor became slippery so more people also slipped over with their glasses, making it even more slippery, and people would fall into glass shards. Anyway that's how I ended up in a very bloody moshpit for this song haha.

I just have it synced up to spotify. I love crunching numbers so I don't mind deleting the odd extra scrobble or reconnecting spotify when it disconnects (happens annoyingly often) so I can have as accurate stats as possible. It's also really great for nostalgia. I've had it for six years now and it's great to go back and see what the top albums were I was vibing to several summers ago and stuff like that.

 

This band's been playing in my local scene for two decades, pretty surreal to see them take 9th spot at Eurovision with this one.

Big fan of the 2017 version!

I find last.fm is second-to-none for finding personal recommendations. Beyond that, I like to keep up to date with all the top prog albums on RateYourMusic, SputnikMusic, Metalstorm, and Progarchives - I won't love everything but it's a good way to find newly released gems.
