Porcupine Tree-FOABP

[Belligerent]

I know for a fact lots of you here love PT. If you love Katatonia you should love PT as well....so just wanted to hear everyone's input on the new one.
My thoughts?= A M A Z I N G
Especially the 17 min. opus anesthesize featuring Robert Fripp from K Crimson and Alex Lifeson from Rush. Stunning stunning stuff here people....a masterpiece indeed....

cheerz everyone

Still waiting for the actual release.

 

[My Hearse Your Arms]

I heard them perform the whole album last October.. I remember thinking wow... this is some incredible stuff
I just got the album online last night
incredible music
however, its gonna take some time for me to appreciate it to its full potential...
it's that way with every PT album IMO
their music has an essence that goes beyond the composition and execution.. very few bands have this.. katatonia is one

it has a very different feel from their previous 2 releases.. its less ambient, a bit more aggressive and right to the point

still... Steve Wilson can do no wrong
5/5

Agreed 5/5 and not point less...if only I can be so lucky to see it performed in its entirity come may17th at Park West and June 2nd at Park West! I love your descriptions though...very well put and I know what you're talking about when you say it will take awhile to grow. Wilson and company are genious...plain and simple.

I also agree, it's gonna be amazing, can't wait to get my hands on the original CD and blast it in full audio quality.

I haven't got a hold of it yet, is it officially released or only leaked?

It'll be released in a week.

Leaked only...Stefan you're in for a treat

 

[M3]

I've only heard the title track and the samples on PTs myspace page. Sounds really nice so far. I already have it pre-ordered, so I'll finally be able to hear it within the next 2 weeks.

 

[BlueSky]

It'll be released in a week.

Let it grow on you...I was iffy at first because its suprisingly different. Steven Wilson can be quoted: "this is some of the heaviest music we've ever recorded". But not all of it is heavy, just parts. All of you should buy this masterpiece when it comes out...pour a tall glass of wine....light a few candles...admire the booklet...and let the tree help you escape for 50 minutes

lucky!

 

[Morfeind]

I like the first 5 tracks but 'Sleep Together' just doesn't do anything for me. Overall, FOABP is very well done and I hope it continues to lead PT to bigger and better things.

 

[Rev Jim Jones]

Glad to hear it does not disappoint. I'll listen to it in the morning.

meh...i turned on slowdive and realized slowdive kills.
