10 minute intro
Proceeds the weedian
5 minute solo
Nazareth
song continues in this manner for another 45 minutes
Dopesmoker by Sleep clocking in at a nice 63:29 minutes 🙂
Endlessly amused that Dopesmoker has two tracks, and one of them is "only" ten minutes long.
'the song really picks up about 7 mins in'
"Once you get past the first 26 or so episodes where they explain the concept of the show.."
Post rock, "AMATEURS!"
man, post rock is THE BEST to listen to
Horse listening to its favourite kind of rock
I wish TTRPG battle/ambience music tracks would be at least 10min long, even if they are looped by their creators. So many tracks are great that I buy but are only 2-3min long and aren't created to loop naturally. So my table is constantly listening to the intro/outro sections that tend to be more attention grabbing. I've had to learn to use audacity to fade them in and out but it's extra labor that doesn't always work.
This is more of an exception, but melodic death metal joins the table (OK, it's actually just above 19 minutes)

Black metal should also be here.
I feel the need to drop a link to some doom metal for any newcomers!

Same with deathcore (I seriously envy his vocal talents)

Funeral Doom Metal is too occupied walloping in a blacked pit of despair to join the chat
Damn, I've heard of black metal and doom metal, but funeral doom metal? Metal subgenres continue to get more specific lol
Considering it's the norm when you aren't doing something genre typical to take two ir more genres and just smoish the names together. This way you get things like blackened death metal (black plus death) or epic gothic power metal (take a guess). Now smoosh those teo examples together and you get something like blackened gothic melodic death metal. See that there, now we get into the transformative properties of metal subgenres. Death metal with a bit more melody and structure, which power metal has in spades, becomes melodic death metal.
Fun isn't it? Also I may have bullshitted together half of the above. But it is a real thing
Heard about Depressive suicidal black metal a while ago.

Also an experience: a longer overarching story across an entire album.
Examples: Metropolis pt. 2 (Dream Theater), or basically anything Ayreon.
The term for that is Concept Album.
They began in the 40s and 50s and really took off in the 60s and 70s. They died out in the 80s and gained popularity again in the 2000s with emo and pop punk bands like MCR, Green Day, Boys Night Out and more.

Hey babe, want to hear my mixtape? It's all Rush and there's only like four songs but it's two hours long.
No wait, please come back....
I mixed prog rock/metal with electronic and the resulting industrial metal somehow cuts songs down to 5-7 minutes.
Weird interference effect when you mix 4/4 and 7/8 time signatures, you start dropping bars that fall out of alignment with each other and the song gets shorter as a result.

Hey, I love all of these

Nine Inch Nails: Let's do all three. At the same time.
20 minutes? Classical music? Prog rock? Have we been listening to the same NIN?
Classical music is still looking down at you from above. Kaikhosru Sorabji especially. He wrote a piece for piano that lasts 8 to 9 hours.
Rookie numbers
If you count Wagner's Ring cycle as one work, it has Sorabji beat BY 8 to 9 hours!
If you count 7 Skies H3 by The Flaming Lips - you shouldn't.
And live versions of worship music.
May I introduce you all to the decline.
He's got his and I've got mine
Amen. Don't pull the trigger squeeze; that will ensure a kill...

Classical music can also be much longer. Symphonies, masses, or operas are many hours long. Kind of like an album of dozens of the shorter 20 minute pieces.
Symphonies still have subdivisions that can stand on their own, so a symphony is more like an album and not a single song. The movements of Beethoven's 9th Symphony range from slightly more than 10 minutes to slightly more than 20, for example.
Yeah, but a symphony is meant to be listened to as a whole much more than an album. It of course depends album to album, some have a tight through line, some don't as much. But there wasn't as much of a way to listen to just a single movement before recordings, so you would listen to the whole long thing moreso than the movements individually.
I'd rather have a concept album of songs that play into each other and advance the narrative than one 20 minute song. I hate progressive music. I used to bounce at a bar whose owner's son would book bands, and 90% were prog bands. Averaged 14 minutes a song, brought in lots of people who bought zero drinks but lots of waters. And they were all dickheads.
Also 90% of songs by the Swans.
Best nintendo game. hands down.
I think it was Treeful Of Secrets that featured a one-side version "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" parts 1 & 2, and that's still not as long or as good as "Echoes."
Just gonna drop by real quick to drop my favorite ~20 minute prog-rock song
That is not prog rock lmao
It's not???
Close To The Edge has two of Yes's best songs.
Close To The Edge has three songs.
Soft Machine's Third has four songs.
Soft Machine's Third has four sides.
I can hear trance music in this post

Thrash metal does a line and plays nine songs instead.
I think Watsky's "Lovely Thing Suite" would be better as a 20 minute song, it ended up releasing as 4 songs that technically flow into eachother but it's a little janky.
When some filthy casual calls a piece of classical music a "song"

Pieces, tunes, concept albums. Not songs
tunes
That's an element of a musical piece (or song, etc.), not a piece in itself.
When you talk about electronic music with 20 minute "songs" you're talking about various dance genres eg: progressive trance, psytrance, other rave oriented music. I have never heard anyone in that scene use the term "song". Tunes, beats, but never song. As for prog, I'm not sure you could call Jethro Tull's "thick as a brick" a song as such. My point is that once you cross the 10 minutes mark, it's unlikely that the person playing it will refer to it as a song.
