This is the What 'Music Are You Listening To?' thread, I think you're looking for the 'Please Offer Your Opinion On The Music I'm Listening To' Thread
Heh. And on topic: Oops, nekkid mermaid boobs. Consider this a contribution to the Suzy Perry thread. :smile:
@ Loz - I've just listened to In Absentia in its entirety, oh my, terrific stuff, thank you so much. + a vast back catalogue to get to grips with :smile:
Glad to hear that, Greyman. In Absentia is a fantastic album (I literally cannot believe how good a track Blackest Eyes is) and there are many more PT albums just as good. You're so lucky getting into it for the first time :smile: Related projects: Steven Wilson (as a solo artist), No-Man, Blackfield and (if you like the Voyage 34 trippy stuff), Incredible Expanding Mindfuck. Wilson is a Titan in terms of output and quality.
This is first time out of the box for me and I'm viewing ebay/amazon listings as I write, any DVD's I should know about?
I'm actually saving the DVDs for last, would you believe, once I have collected up the last of the various live CDs and Downloads of gigs. I assume you've found PorcupineTree,com and StevenWilsonHQ.com? Some rareties to be had there. I'm still not finished myself but I limit myself to a sensible monthly budget. There's a DVD included in the Octane Twisted Special Edition that was released (I think it's only available via the PT website, or it was) last year. I haven't bought any other DVDs so I cannot recommend as yet. Where I cannot buy particular material, I have a good old rummidge through YouTube. There are releases that aren't for sale, they are very exclusive so I don't feel bad about free downloads for those items. Everything else, I buy cos the guy earns his pay in my view. Another recommendation for you when you finish discovering Wilson - The Pineapple Thief. Not quite the quality of Porcupine Tree but in terms of modern music these days, it's gold.
