Deadwing and Stupid Dream are good.

[Skylark]

oh! I am grateful for this thread, I have been meaning to get an album by them and now I will have an idea of what to get..

[LCK]

I'm quite fond of Deadwing, Fear of a Blank Planet, and In Absentia.

Oh same, but no one really told me which album to get firsters.

[Daddy]

Oh same, but no one really told me which album to get firsters.

you could hve asked me

[Skylark]

Oh same, but no one really told me which album to get firsters.

when that happens I like to start from the beginning

I'm gonna give you my three favorite albums from all three of their "phases", if that makes sense.

Psychedelic old stuff: "Voyage 34: The Complete Trip"
90's stuff: "Stupid Dream"
Recent, more metal/prog inspired stuff: "Fear of a Blank Planet"

[Selkie]

Alright, I decided I'll buy Stupid Dream off Half.com.

But the lowest price is 11$ and my parents need to use their credit card so they only let me get stuff thats like 2$ or less, so I think I will ask for it as a christmas gift.

Also I like getting a CD for christmas because I listen to it on Christmas and the songs kind of ingrain in my brain as songs I heard on Christmas and whenever I listen to the songs I think of the Christmas when I got the CD.

I'm weird like that.

I've always liked Deadwing, but on occasion I enjoy Fear of a Blank Planet (their latest, I think)...

[Samus Aran]

you're our hero steal

i still only have Deadwing, unfortunately, but i love it so <3

[Placebo Headwound]

i think i indirectly got this whole forum into porcupine tree because i got thief

wut

I first heard about them when a friend invited me to their concert and that's when I started listening to them.

[The artist formally known]

I'd say fuck it and get the live cd Arriving Somewhere.


All great songs and the live versions seem to create more emotion.

[Placebo Headwound]

oh for some reason i thought i told you to check them out

whatever, i do remember being incredibly jealous when you saw them.

Thats because I got to meet Steven Wilson.
