      The roast was calling a Pipa a lute (its similar, but completely different cultures), not knowing what a shamisen is, and calling a Lyre a "finger harp"
      Although that's a product of western music never bothering to expand into other cultures. I don't blame polyphia at all, but rather the entirety of the western music scene.

      There are so many fantastic pieces people don't get to hear because no one pushes them to branch out into other genres and territories. Again, I'm not mad at polyphia at all for not knowing what a pipa is. I just think everyone should make more of an effort to venture outside of their musical comfort zone.
