porcupine tree - up the downstair

[opethpainter]

since this is going to be the semi-official PT forum, i would like to tell to everyone who asks which PT album is good to be bought, well, BUY THIS!

i had this album in mp3 format, but never listened it so well. then i bought the original version, at a low price [10.59 €], think that it was not so good too.

but when i listened accurately... i was literally blown away... it's maybe their shortest album [48 mins], but every second of it is worth your attention. and i can't imagine how steven wilson managed to play everything [ok, there's drum machine...] and make up this marvellous lp.

ok, the spot is quite finished. BUY IT!

you're right! I seem to like the older PT stuff better than the new. Voyage 34 is great, too...and "the sky moves sideways"!

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

Oh man everyone in the world should be able to experience Voyage 34 while stoned. Its amazing!

 

[Alex78]

so you tried the "sugarcubes saturated with lsd" thing?

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

Haha no, just my usual bit 'o hashish

I imagine the effect of Voyage 34 stoned is similar to that of Another Brick In The Wall pt. 1 stoned? I overheard someone at the PT show in Manhattan recommending UTD as "mindblowing space prog"...certainly accurate.

i also think that the sky moves sideways is another masterpiece. even if steven wilson says that he's got bad memories about that album.

...and he says that album is not so good... but i think it is!
