Porcupine Tree

Let me just say - I've seen them live 3 times over the last 6 years, and I've been completely blown away. Steven Wilson's growing mastery of the guitar, his voice, and production is just taking him to the top level of the craft of music. Gavin Harrison has been making huge waves in the drumming world, as evidenced by his drum solo on Letterman a few months ago. I've gotten really into Barbieri's solo records, and although I'm not as into Colin Edwin's stuff as much I gotta say that he is a very tasty bassist who plays all the right notes every time, with superb intonation on fretless.
With that said, I was a bit let down by the most recent PT album, as well as the new SW solo album. But they'll rise again to fight another day, I know this for sure.

Yeah, PT are awesome. One of the best live acts ever. I LOVE playing "Trains" on my acoustic guitar, it's such a beautiful song, and so much fun to play.
Incredible band that need to be heard. been listening for a few years now, Steve Wilson is just incredible. Fear of a Blank Planet is still my favourite album at the moment.

Porcupine Tree "What Are You Listening To?" and "Synesthesia" will be played from vinyl tonight on KRVM.org at a little after 5PM PST. I recorded it myself from vinyl and normalized it above the station's standard level.
Hey I'm old and I got confused. Actually the entire first 20 min segment is extra loud. Unless they fixed it. Ha.
Listen - KRVM.org
Highway Star - Deep Purple
Porcupine Tree - WAYLT? and most of Synesthesia
Tasavallan Presidentti - Milky Way Moses
