Maybe porcupine tree will be reformed when PeterGabriel calls out SW for copying his style and career trajectory

Yea, Detonation is probably the worst song on here. I never thought about it that way, but it's pretty clear now, haha. Love everthing else though

Detonation is so good, that second half sounds straight out of Signify.

Not sure if I've just grown out of Wilson's music, but I never come back to this. I loved Raven back in the day, too.

Underflow, I’m having that crisis too. I loved Raven when it came out, and I even loved H.C.E. when it first came out also. This on the other hand had to grow on me a lot and while I like it overall now, it’s not the first album I’d go out of my way to revisit whenever I’m in a SW mood. I will say though that the current tour is probably the most impressive show visually speaking and the songs translate pretty well live IMO and I was able to get into the TTB songs when I saw him live last month.



For those still banking on a PT reformation, an interview from March of this year where he says chances of PT reformation is “zero” right here: https://www.eonmusic.co.uk/steven-wilson-eonmusic-interview-march-2018.html

I love H.C.E but I rather listen to this than H.C.E or Raven

I have to promote this. I've created the greatest modern prog album of all time. I know that sounds arrogant but It's really just a masterwork.. It will be released this month. Move over Stephen, there's a new king in town.

Agreed, Refuge is terrific. I'm surprised how much this is growing on me, but it's creeping up.

Xeno with you being the encyclopedic knowledge of prog that you are I would've expected you to have listened to this by now.

I'd even say Steven Wilson does better woth writing catchy tunes than proggy songs most of the time. Ancestral, Luminol and the PT long tracks being exceptions
