they are quite different alubms, can't really compare them. This has better individual songs, I give you that, but Deadwing is unmatched for me

Album Rating: 4.0

You can compare anything to anything tbh. It's still undeniably PT. They try different things though, that's true. I will always have my issues with Deadwing tbh. Like, why do people like the title track? That's such a boring song, I tend to skip it

Album Rating: 4.0

I was bored to death when I first listened to the album, tbh. But it just clicked at some point, I treasure that time, and now I like every aspect the same way you like person even whith their piggy laugh or awkward dancing skills. It's not them without it.

like donald duck and his voice too

God the lead lines on Stranger by the Minute are to die for

The solo kicks ass

Love that song, one of my most listened to of all Wilson's stuff.

Album Rating: 5.0

Whole album is littered with a lot of Steven’s best stuff. Stop Swimming's his masterpiece

I'm surprised how britpop-y this sounds, like Blur with more angst

For real, guitar lines in Stranger by the Minute are perfect

Album Rating: 3.0

What songs on here are better than Arriving, Glass Arm shattering, or Halo?

Album Rating: 4.5

Tinto Brass, Stop Swimming and Even Less beat all three of these tracks by a landslide to me.



The first song in particular is neat because you hear faint echoes of what would be Strip the Soul and .3 on In Absentia. I'd see this track as the foundation of the later Porcupine Tree sound.

Yeah this is the earliest album of theirs I've heard yet so the opener feels the most "Porcupine Tree" to me, if that makes sense.

This is really good but it has an odd radio-rock sheen to it that I can't quite put my finger on

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah, it's a nice combination of both the prog and pop sides of the band. Lot of Britpop and Radiohead influences in there for sure, which I certainly can't complain about

i like Up the Downstair more than this tbh
