The Porcupine Tree Thread

I don't understand this.

I don't understand this.

Hmmm...

By "too prog" he must mean "too technical" because that's the only way that sentence makes any damn sense at all.

I think Shallow, as a single, is weaker than Strip the Soul. There are still some tracks on Deadwing which I don't really like (Start of Something Beautiful, Glass Arm Shattering). I also get the vibe that alot of the tracks on Deadwing sound too much alike. There is too much of a similar vibe throughout the album. I personally found IA to have more variety.

Deadwing is growing on me... it's just not there yet

dittio.

ya no Opeth fans care about PT...

I'm an Opeth fan and I like PT just as much, the death thing that opeth does makes me laugh, PT are like opeth but with out all the death metal comedy!

um I think you missed my sarcasm. Before this became the official Porcupine Tree thread, there were a bunch of different PT threads that were all thrown together, which is what this thread is--just a compilation of all those threads. One of the threads included is one that I created, praising PT....

well that was probably completely confusing, but whatever

 

[Kenneth R.]

death metal makes me giggle with joy.

i got the deadwing shirt. it is cool

R0l0: where did you get that trey parker/gunhaver pic?

if you look closely, in the lower left hand corner, it looks like a reflection of a naked woman bending slightly at the waist. her body is visible from the upper thighs to the top of the breasts. it's gunhavers mom, apparently. and she's not bad, i must say

[Fyhed]

HAHAHA!! Daddy takes you out back to the gardenshed!

 

[Blackhorse_Experience]

okk anyway....

I've been listening to the album repeatedly for the last couple of days and it still hasn't totally grown on me. My favorite track is probably "Arriving Somewhere...."

A couple other parts which I enjoy are the ending of "Mellotron Scratch." The vocal harmony is very nice indeed. I also really like Mikael's solo on "Arriving.." I hope to hear some more like that on Opeth's next release.

Also, I'm too lazy to search for this.. but the vocals on the title track that start with "Like a cancer scare. In the Dentist's chair...," is that SW? Doesn't sound like him. At first I thought maybe it was Mike but the liner notes just say harmony vocals sooo.. I don't know.

 

[Ermz]

It definately sounds like Mike to me.

 

[Jon Snow]

It's obviously Mike. Unless you're deaf. Then it wouldn't be so obvious.

 

[NFU]

Actually i think its Adrian Belew fellas.

but i cant be 100% sure, seeing as i dont know what parts on the album he actually took part in.

 

[Jon Snow]

It is Mike. I am 100% sure. Listen to it again...it sounds exactly like him.

 

[R0l0]

Strange, it sounds nothing like Mike to me, Mike doesn't even have the same accent as the guy singing.
Sounds more like the King Crimson guy to me.

 

[Jon Snow]

I swear you're all deaf.
