Default Porcupine Tree fans.

I never really listened to the album Fear of a Blank planet even though someone uploaded it here before, so last night i listened and im like OMG SO SO good.

Anything else similar you can recommend or an order of albums to get ?

cheers

Yeah I can imagine seeing them live would be fantatic, this music is wonderful it makes me feel kind of how I feel when I listen to that electronic band Underworlds music, but in a different musical form. I just love how everything is delivered

theyre the kinda band you just can put on, lean back in your chair, close your eyes and float away. check out some of the blackfield stuff if you havent already, bit different but also very good

Cracking album, I'll put up another one if you want? Pick whatever sounds best off the list.
Deadwing - More metal/rock influenced than the earlier stuff but with some typical PT on it. Has Halo and Lazarus on it which are the top 2 songs people know by PT.
Lightbulb Sun - Kind of a slower more relaxed album, some very claustrophobic lyrics as the name suggests it's about social reclusiveness but also swipes at cults (Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled) and Oasis (4 Chords That Made A Million)
Stupid Dream - Probably the most accessible PT album and apparently Steven Wilsons favourite of the early ones. Kinda Indie in place but some brilliant tracks on there.
Or I'll just crack you up a .rar with a few tracks off each album.

Stupid Dream is an awesome album, it is my lifes ambition to see them do Tinto Brass live. Saw Stupid Kid when I saw them in November and they did Sky Moves Sideways Phase One which was so fucking orgasmic its untrue.

It's all Steven Wilson up until Stupid Dream I think it was he used a drum machine and did all the other parts himself.

wow, one bloke. He must of studied music theory. I mean some of the scales being used and how he composes the songs are really intelligent.

He is absolutely amazing, esecially when you hear how different each album is. Voyage 34 for example is a concept album, one piece of music in 4 phases representing an LSD trip.
