GROUND RULES: FOLLOWING GENRES ARE OUTLAWED:

  • Progress Rock (NOBODY IS GOING TO LISTEN TO YES, STAIRMASTER)
  • DUBSTEP
  • Psychedelic folk
  • Bluegrass

EVERYTHING ELSE IS FAIRPLAY

... for now

ALSO TRY TO MAKE SURE IT'S NOT SOMETHING RIDICULOUSLY POPULAR THAT WE'VE PROBABLY ALREADY HEARD OF.

Okay let's do this thing

Fish out of Water by Chris Squire

Produced by Yes's Bassist this album surprisingly isn't some "multi-timbre alley of rapists" as Srol would describe but instead takes a strong jazz rock approach abandoning the Prog rock jamming yes had made Squire famous for. Instead it sounds more like a compilation of material that would not sound out of place on a Chicago album.

Works Progress Administration. The band is a supergroup consisting of musicians from various other projects. The core is Glen Phillips of Toad the Wet Sprocket, Sean and Sara Watkins of Nickel Creek, Benmont Tench of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and Pete Thomas who plays drums for Elvis Costello.

They've only had one album so far (self titled), and if I had to describe it, I'd say it's upbeat folk-rock with a tinge of country. One thing I think is neat is all of the people in the band switch off on singing duties, so you get very different feels to the songs depending on who's singing. Some highlights off of that album.
