Here's some songs to download:

Blackest Eyes
Sound of Muzak

Those are some of their catchier/more accessable tunes.

group F*: Wise prog nerds, who proceed to bash the stuff liked by the aforementioned groups A and B, and make it quite obvious and visible.

Porcupine Tree is, for many of us, a serendipitous discovery, and we have Opeth to thank. I like how personal some of the songs are, truly emotional stuff for a prog band.

Examples:
"Shesmovedon" --A wistful, resigned look at a recent breakup.

"Russia on Ice" -- How many of us have drowned our sorrows with liquor? And who here can't relate to the lines 'you think I deserve this?...you said I was stupid"

"Heartattack in a Layby" -- The haunting five note refrain. Wilson saying, "don't feel so good". So sadly beautiful. Surprised this one never made it as background music in a movie or reality TV show.

"Feel So Low" -- I hope the girl who inspired this song feels like shit every time she hears it.

Okay guys bear with me... I'm gonna try something new. Bout to try and merge all the recent PT threads with this one, to see whether we can make life here a little less frustrating.

Looks like some posts are in there twice.

haha it's a little confusing, but it works fine

 

[Ermz]

Yeah, sorry, there seemed to be no real way of arranging it. But I hope you guys can make do with this... because it gets a bit frustrating for everyone to see 5 PT threads on the front page.

 

[Metalloid]

ya that's understandable

 

[Sanzen]

that's some high quality moderatin'

 

[R0l0]

Good idea, it probably needed to be done anyways. I'd also suggest deleting any new PT thread that pops up after this.

group G: those who feel inferior and/or intimidated by group F, so they attempt to insult group F by remarking how much more group F knows than that of group G.

 

[R0l0]

group H: Those members of group F who feel members of other groups are trying to insult them and as a result misconcievingly classify them into group G.

 

[Metalloid]

Group X: people who cannot comprehend the complexity of the intricate relationships between groups A through H.

 

[Risquit]

Group Sex: Something I've always wanted to do.

 

[Ermz]

Group Z: The people who're gonna ban everyone's ass unless they stop insulting each other.

 

[OpethNZ]

ahh thankyou very much for merging 'em all Moonlapse, much better

 

[The Dude]

As President For Life of group D, I call a truce between groups A through X (excluding E), so that we may wage war on group E, thus creating harmony amongst the peoples of the world, and bringing balance to the force.

Is it because Steven Wilson wears glasses, that you like Porcupine Tree?

 

[OpethNZ]
