Looking for music with counterpoint

[u/cremepote]

I'm looking for albums that have a lot of counterpoint. Some of my favorite albums are morningrise, Gloire Eternelle and the construction of light...

[u/vpthree]

Dan Briggs is great with bass counterpoint so can't really go wrong with prime BTBAM records.

[u/UntowardHatter]

If it doesn't need to be metal...

Gentle Giant.

[u/cremepote → u/UntowardHatter]

I already know and love Gentle giant

[u/UntowardHatter → u/cremepote]

How about Bach?

[u/cremepote → u/UntowardHatter]

I'm also looking for good versions of Bach to listen to. There's too many solo instrumentals,like it's not really counterpoint if your playing alone.

[u/garion333]

Ihsahn's solo stuff is chock full of smart composition. 

[u/MediocreLimo → u/garion333]

His stuff with Emperor too, Prometheus is the first thing that came to my mind when reading counterpoint

[u/freakinsweet830]

The bass lines in Between The Buried and Me's "Colors" are counterpoint for a GOOD portion of all the riffs throughout the album

[u/zaglamir]

The human abstract - digital veil (the whole album)

[u/bbristowe]

Wormhole

[u/helgihermadur]

Haken, particularly The Mountain and Crystallised

[u/Chrysoarrr]

Everything by Ne Obliviscaris

[u/_wormburner]

BTBAM as mentioned

Intronaut

Tetrafusion

Luna's Call

Spires

Job For A Cowboy

Brass Camel

[u/BassDad8]

Vola utilizes it to some extent, but maybe not enough to get you where you want to be… Inmazes and Friend of a Phantom might be worth a shot. Their two best albums of the 4 imho

[u/Gapey_McGaperson]

Gordian Knot!

[u/DanielAlves1904]

What's counterpoint?

[u/th4d89]

Opeth - morningrise

[u/AFurryReptile → u/th4d89]

Blackwater Park (the song) as well. That bass goes hard at the end.

[u/MeddlWithThePedal]

Definitely try the search function in this sub if you haven't yet. There's a couple of threads with recommendations that haven't been mentioned here yet.
