porcupine tree - chloroform

"Haha. 95% of you just like Porcupine Tree cause Mikael does. "

nah..I like PT because I really dig the music. That must be unheard of nowadays..

If it weren't for PT, I wouldn't have discovered Opeth ;)
 
i discovered pt thanks to the collaboration in BWP. anyway, i like them just because i like them and nothing else. mikael's suggestions are just suggestions, and i follow only my musical taste.

What does Porcupine Tree sound like?

In my opinion, they sound like (at least the "Signify" on stuff) sounds like a slightly depressed version of the latter-era Beatles, mixed in with some of the elements of 90s era Fates Warning (but NOT the horrendous Fates Warning vocals), post-Darren White era Anathema mixed in with two gallons of pure, raw emotion.

They experiment & can, to some degree, be labeled as "progressive". Yet, simaltaneously, write almost "radio friendly" music that even the masses could appreciate!

Basically, if you enjoy bands such as Opeth, Anathema, Pink FLoyd, the Gathering, Fates Warning, In the Woods, etc., but do not necessarily limit yourself to metal, you will most likely enjoy this fantastic band!

Thanks a lot that helps me a lot. I like Opeth, Pink Floyd, the Gathering a lot so I will definitely check them out.
