Porcupine Tree - what a band!!!!!

[DelB]

I'm almost ashamed to admit that I'd never even heard of Porcupine Tree until the weekend there, but my God they are absolutely superb!! Can't stop listening to them. Have downloaded four of their albums since Sunday night. Supremely talented musicians and jaw-dropping compositions/time signatures. 21st century prog-rock at its very best. Check out this 12 minute gem.

Arriving somewhere but not here

Any other fans on here?

Yep great band I agree, I've followed them for some time now. If you like these try one of my more obscure bands Secret Machines. Sadly no more now they produced 2 albums "Now here is nowhere" and "Ten silver drops" before breaking up but the 2 albums are very very good.
Give them a try, very individual music a bit love it or hate it I suppose but they are/were super good IMHO.
Here is a live youtube clip of one of there best numbers TBh it sounds much better on the album but hey who doesn't.
