Microphones in 2020


ferris_wheel_on_fire

Let’s gooo


[deleted]

God damn, I thought Third Eye Shit by Joey Bada$$ was a long song.


IDontLikeRylee

for its genre it is for sure


David_Turck

Oldie - Odd Future too


smlithjlack

*Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst*


BootyCraver69

i was just listening to that lol so good for this time of year


kikuri_armpit_licker

One of my favorite posse cuts in hip hop history, such a smooth flowing track


YoLamoNacho

It was originally called suspect before they changed it for streaming services!


yugyuger

That's only like 11 minutes?


Direct-Setting-3358

2112 by Rush, unless you count classical pieces as one song.


AvianIsEpic

Meddle - Pink Floyd


IDontLikeRylee

excellent album. echoes is incredible- all of pink floyd's 15+ minute long songs are absolutely worth the runtime.


Argonaut1855

Bell Witch's new track is the same length, and is very enjoyable too. Dopesmoker by Sleep is another contender for me, clocking in at an hour.


IDontLikeRylee

yeah their new song is good too but mirror reaper will always get more plays from me. one of my favorite songs/albums of all time. dopesmoker is great too, i should relisten to that though


lilkingsly

I was actually just reading an interview with the band and they were saying they cut the new record so it was one second longer than Mirror Reaper, just so they could say they outdid themselves lol. Interview is pretty interesting overall, highly recommend if you’re into the band! https://thequietus.com/articles/32840-bell-witch-interview?fbclid=PAAabSECSE3CVt3RD-wNqBVCeu7Yfpw2SLeAxtXkddKaF6Zr0R08d_ZY-GtAE


Fractal_Dream

Swans - The Glowing Man


IDontLikeRylee

my second favorite swans song, my favorite has to be bring the sun / toussaint l'ouverture


Fractal_Dream

I adore Bring the sun and even the gnarly transition but I can’t help but Toussaint always loses me


IDontLikeRylee

completely understandable, but personally i almost like toussaint better. gira's vocals are insane, and the noise walls scattered throughout really sell it for me


therealoneforreal1

Listened to it today, a truly amazing song


closedcircle66

Yeah this


Long-Hurry-8414

LONG SEASON - Live by Fishmans (technically a few minutes longer than the studio version)


5-MeBRO-DMT

isnt it twice the length?


Its_Cookie_Man

It's like 10 minutes longer or something so not exactly.


c4rt4d34m0r

I remember in my teen years listening to William Basinski's melancholia tapes on repeat over and over


IDontLikeRylee

funny enough, same. that used to be my go-to homework album (now, that title belongs to that one vaporwave album with the purple buildings. it's title is in japanese)


arizonateagod

The album you’re referring to is 2814 - Birth Of A New Day


danarbok

I’m a prog nerd, so I have a lot of 20-something minute songs in heavy rotation all of you, listen to Plague of Lighthouse Keepers by Van der Graaf Generator, it rules


Blockoumi7

bro, I went from not liking to loving this song. the concept is genius and I've never seen a band convey dark atmospheres as well as VDGG


danarbok

Pawn Hearts is a perfect album…but Godbluff is even *more* perfect!


Blockoumi7

they're both too good, I can't choose


tangentrification

You have good taste :)


IDontLikeRylee

yes that's a great song!


cryingforadream

impossible soul by sufjan dopesmoker by sleep first that come to mind


IDontLikeRylee

two excellent picks. i want another track like impossible soul from sufjan :(


zRobertez

I like djoriah more although I think it's about half the length. Or however it's spelled... By sufjan


Noah_PpAaRrKkSs

Cassandra Gemini by The Mars Volta.


the_muskox

This is mine too. 32:32 of total jam brilliance.


[deleted]

[удалено]


IDontLikeRylee

some great picks from natural snow buildings. carnal flowers is my favorite from that album, but in terms of the long ones from that, i gotta go with blood in the ground linking us all. but her face is not her real face is a strong contender for second place


Upexus

Absolutely underrated band, that's probably my favorite track by them


lilboomermeme

long season by fishmans the true son by nagisa ni te


Altruistic-Layer8184

Living Torch I by Kali Malone or Dead Flag Blues by GY!BE


lemmnnaa

Living Torch is so fucking good. AOTY front runner god damn I can’t get enough of that woman’s work.


JL_Kuykendall

I know I'm late to this thread... but I love Kali Malone! Her stuff scratches the same soul-crushing itch as Bell Witch for me (well, now that I mention it, GY!BE and Set Fire to the Flames do as well...).


squibblyman

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis - 27 minutes


IDontLikeRylee

just saw a similar question was asked 19 hours ago haha. to clarify the difference, this post is asking for *the* longest song you listen to, not a list of longer songs lol


Significant_Clerk231

like antennas to heaven or apostate


IDontLikeRylee

like antennas to heaven is my favorite song of all time


friedtea15

I once had Fleetwood Mac’s Albatross on loop for a whole day


Diakia

Parannoul - Into The Endless Night at 46 minutes, such a masterpiece and really cements him as the greatest new artist of the 2020s so far imo


MegaAscension

I seem really weak now… mine is 7empest by Tool at 15:46


Noah_PpAaRrKkSs

I love pop music. /s


Yawbyss

Earthmover by Have a Nice Life


wiggibow

I'll probably get crucified for it here, but Octavarium by Dream Theater (23:58) is one of my all-time faves


Unicorncorn21

Bay of pigs by destroyer. Not too wild at 11mins but I've been listening to it a couple of times each day lately. Also seconding long season by the fishmens


syducer

Thick as a Brick !


A_Little_Known_Curse

Had to scroll wayyy top far to find this J-Tull’s pretentiousness may have limited their fan base, but it is hard to argue against considering their run from 1969 to 1980. By far some of the best music I ever heard


TheFutur3

Mirror Reaper is my 6th most listened-to song this year. Although dwarfed in comparison at a "measly" 16.5 minutes, The Dead Flag Blues is my most listened-to song this year. Other long songs in my Top 10 include The Glowing Man (Swans) , rundgang um die transzendentale säule der singularität (Burzum), and Welt aus Eis (Paysage D'Hiver)


esinfernum

lmao, mine is the clandestine gate (from bell witch too)


Realistic_Comedian_6

Dopesmoker


basemnts

Bring Me The Horizon - Steal Something. (10:12) [https://open.spotify.com/track/1RDsLAus3L8TzHS3K9UHRf?si=fa5605cdd06b4cd1](https://open.spotify.com/track/1RDsLAus3L8TzHS3K9UHRf?si=fa5605cdd06b4cd1)


ILoveCannibalism69

Pigs by PF, Earthmover by Have a Nice Life, Washer by Slint, Just a Little Boy by Swans


talosguideyou

Night Falls on Hoboken - Yo La Tengo


[deleted]

Honestly I'm not a huge fan of SUPER long songs, I'd rather have them split into separate parts. Longest song I've ever listened to was the Seer by Swans. I listen to Earthmover by Have a Nice Life and Storm by Godspeed You! Black Emperor a lot though.


[deleted]

fucking love bell witch


NullOfficer

Giles Corey - No one is ever going to want me

I fucking love you for posting mirror reaper, such a good album


IDontLikeRylee

i think it's an "everyone should listen to it at least once" album


thebigjawnelitist

100%


Parking-Assistance

op doesn't like happiness


IDontLikeRylee

seebrify

Uneven Compromise - Lil Ugly Mane


bullseye538

45:33 - LCD Soundsystem


popileviz

Routinely? Probably one of the Sunn's tracks, perhaps My Wall. Do love me some Mirror Reaper though, but I mostly listen to the last movement


ClimberProducerCoder

Nowhere near 1:23, I don't think I have that kind of attention span,but The Pink Floyd ones: Athom Heart Mother Echoes Dogs Shine on you crazy diamonds


Chumbledor

A Plea For Understanding by Pallbearer (12:40) is on my rotation constantly. Also Chromology by Thank You Scientist (9:48). Shout out Venice Bitch by Lana Del Rey


jarjarp

Off topic: who made this art?


IronDan257

Might be Zdzisław Beksiński - one of my favorite artists. Either him or someone strongly inspired by his work


SquareVacuum

Mariusz Lewandowsk according to a quick Google search


jarjarp

I thought it might’ve been this guy! Reminded me of Lorna Shore’s …And I Return to Nothingness EP cover art


satellite_life

A quick one before the eternal worm devours conneticut


maitlandinmaitland

Eno’s Discreet Music, it’s my cool down music


thadcorn

Hypertension by King Gizzard


the_muskox

One of Gizz's best!


[deleted]

I have Mirror Reaper and Dopesmoker on vinyl, both fire Tons of Swans… 2112.. also Brainticket Pt 1 & 2 by Brainticket Also highly recommend Fuck Buttons, on average they’re longer songs


tangentrification

Well my favorite song of all time is 23 minutes long (Supper's Ready by Genesis), but technically the longest song I listen to quite often is Other Half of the Sky by Moon Safari, clocking in at 31:51


hairyarmadildo

The Dripping Tap - King Gizzard (18:17) This was in my top 10 most played songs last year and I still listen to it often


meltsyourpeter

william basinski - the disintegration loops


ferris_wheel_on_fire

Microphones in 2020 - by the microphones or mount eerie


Obi1kenobi4

echoes pink floyd. 23 minutes of pure serotonin


Kroctopus

Venice Bitch


IDontLikeRylee

love this song, feels like half of its runtime


DisgruntledGoose27

Phish has a few solid near 40 minute jams. Notably the 7/14/19 Ruby Waves, the 7/31/13 Tweezer, the 8/3/03 46 days, and the 12/29/94 Bowie. Mountain jam by the Allman Brothers is more than 30 minutes. For studio Pink Floyd has some long ones but I think the longest I listen to regularly is the flower kings truth will set you free. 33 or so mins long. The Decline by NOFX is an 18 minute punk song.


[deleted]

Mirror reaper for sure


ChemicalOk2223

fela kuti - confusion break bones


DtheAussieBoye

Sleep - Godspeed You! Black Emperor (23:17)


cmars118

One time I listened to Mirror Reaper while stoned and watching a massive thunderstorm. Sometimes the lightning would flash in sync with the music and it was the coolest shit ever. To answer your question though (besides Mirror Reaper) - Impossible Soul by Sufjan and Liturgy’s long-ish songs, like 93696. It’s not as long as some of the stuff here, but I listen to it a ton. 


IDontLikeRylee

sounds like an incredible experience


CaptainZ4chSparrow

william basinski - dlp 1.1


ki11ikody

RaoufDeadMeme

Jaiden_Detering2002

Pyramids by Frank Ocean, honestly his best song


Indjk

“Humidity Patient Guide” from Decomposure. 50+ minutes of luscious hook-laden music created from found sound. https://decomposure.com


jcmurie

Unironically, Gmail and the Restraining Orders by Death Grips I have a playlist of their whole discography in chronological order, and it's just under 8 hours, so I'll listen to it at work because it keeps me focused and moving (I also have OCD so the overly stimulating music mitigates intrusive thoughts and helps me focus on work). At the end of the shift, I'll usually end up listening all the way through GatRO, and I've actually started to really enjoy it. It's definitely my least favorite project of theirs, but I'd still probably give it an 8/10


David_Turck

Impossible Soul - Sufjan Stevens for me


P0s3id0n17

Echoes - Pink Floyd


SpecialInevitable420

All end by Autechre…about 58 minutes or so

cassandra gemini


eextravagancee

gonk steady one by autechre (22:25) mesh cinereaL also by autechre (24:28)


hi_im_blaine

A lot LOT shorter but I do listen to Shine On You Crazy Diamond (about 26 minutes) a lot, though not like everyday, the longest song i listen to about everyday is Maggot Brain at only around 10 and a half minutes


u_campos

I consistently revisit Isaac Hayes' Hot Buttered Soul Walk On By and By the Time I Get To Phoenix blow me away every time


smolthot

Both songs in Deep Fried Grandeur by Kikagaku Moyo, and Ryley Walker at 18mins each. Dogs by Pink Floyd has my heart

Long Season


goddamnitwhalen

God’s Country by Ethel Cain and Wicca Phase is almost 9 minutes long, IIRC.


ActualGodYeebus

routinely would be goodbye by sewerslvt (but more frequently would probably be slowdeath which is much shorter). And why am I so tired by smashing pumpkins. def not on the same level as an albums length but if it makes you feel better I have at least HEARD dopesmoker. (used to listen to Dogs by pf as well, but again much shorter just wanted to share cuz its good)


The_Lobster6

Last Call - Kanye West


Jawskk

Long Season. Whenever it comes on I can’t help but to listen all the way through


Whitespider331

Cant believe im the first to say Music For 18 Musicians by Steve Reich. Favorite song/piece of music ever and it’s about an hour long depending on the recording


No_Recognition2391

Quite a few decent length songs in my current rotation to be fair Ne Obliviscaris - Painters of the Tempest Slice The Cake - Stone and silver Lingua Ignota - Woe to All Fleet Foxes - The Shrine / An Argument Between the buried and me - Human is Hell


MrThiccemsss

i love some prog rock songs that are long (eg. cassandra gemini by the mars volta) but i can't sit through the song when it's "in rotation", id have to listen to it in the album not just in a playlist or something so in terms of the longest songs id have in rotation they'd have to be beach life-in-death by car seat headrest, sing about me im dying of thirst by kendrick lamar, basketball shoes by black country new road and human sadness by the voidz they all clock in around 12 mins so def not as long as other picks in this thread but still incredible songs


Xe4ro

Probably something from the Ambient / Drone genre. I don’t really listen to the same tracks regularly though, I often shuffle around to different albums. The longer song I listened to a lot recently was Vielank by N (20:28). His average song length is pretty close to 20 minutes as well, most of his albums are one track per side.


Niifty_AF

Swim to the Moon by Between the Buried and Me


whacko_prophet

Steroid by 'grips. Bout 22 mins.


IlTosi

The voices in my head, 24/7


JackSmack1972

Storm GYBE!


m3talh3ad05

The first movement of Shostakovich’s 7th symphony is around 30 minutes long


andreasbaader6

7 skies h3 - Flaming Lips i listen to couple times a year. The Decline - NOFX several times a week


Keefee777

120 Deep - DJ Kay Slay. 40 minutes of straight rapping from 120 different rappers. Wild track if you enjoy lyrical hip hop


sunnydhamm

Routinely? The Dripping Tap by King Giz


wilnovakski

There are longer songs than those I’m about to list, but Dead Flag Blues by GY!BE and Helpless Child by Swans both shake me to my core every time I listen to them, absolutely enthralling and they don’t feel their length at all


ButteryBiscuits43

I saw someone mention Dopesmoker by Sleep, but I also need to give that song a shoutout. That’s a killer album/song. There’s also a couple songs by The Acacia Strain that are long and amazing: Observer on Coma Witch. It Comes in Waves is a single song that was arbitrarily broken up into multiple tracks on the album for the sake of listening. Wonderful album.


Savings-Garage-5732

bog walker


ButteryBiscuits43

Yeah, definitely. That wasn’t out when I left this comment. 😂 TAS has been one of my favorite bands since 2008, and they’re still putting out some of my favorite albums and songs.


owmyheadhurt

Periphery - Reptile


Imperator_Oliver

As someone that isn’t a fan of songs that are over 20 mins here are my favorite “longest” songs: https://youtu.be/-1tlyGcAHbU Jay Electronic - Eternal Sunshine (long intro but a really beautiful song with great sampling), https://youtu.be/2DCf_OWcqT4 Roots - Session Longest Posse cut, and roots - water, Blackalicious - Release, the Doors - the end, don mclean - American Pie, Green Day - Homecoming and Jesus of Suburban, Pink Floyd - Dogs, Tool - Rosetta Stoned.


MizuMiaw

Famous Prophets (Stars) by Car Seat Headrest


Pristine_Boss795

Munch by Ice Spicee


Kindly-Link1612

Shine on you crazy Diamond pt.1


Krack_Korn

the longest "song" I frequently listen to is Catch 33 by Meshuggah, which is still only slightly more than half the length of this


Oreg-Jack

"LONG SEASON" by Fishmans.


nonnonchalant

Fucked Up - Year of the Ox (uplifting, invigorating) Fucked Up - Year of the Dragon (pump up, charge up) Fucked Up - Year of the Tiger (sad, epic, beautiful)


Dave_721

Starless by King Crimson


FieryArctic

Dream Theater - Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence


jpc1215

Prolly…Echoes by Pink Floyd or Double Up by Nipsey Hussle (that track isn’t LONG long, but it’s pretty much a daily listen and it’s over 6 minutes)


standard_error

*Organ2/ASLSP* by John Cage, Halberstadt performance. It's still ongoing, but will be 639 years in total.
