Over half of this isn't even metal tho

Album Rating: 3.5

Alternative rock/metal ;)

I could live with that. The Incident might be closer to that classification though. There's so much to the sound on here, like there's some prog obviously, Britpop, psychedelia, and other styles too. I just think of it as a blend of alt. / art rock and prog metal.

I'd use post-progressive to describe PT and most SW-related stuff. Because in intent, it's actually very much in line with traditional prog, but shows signs of adaptation to an entirely new musical context. Like alt. rock/metal inspiration and an overall tendency to blend many diverse influences.

I think prog has to be now in a way very much a reflection of its era. Popular music being arguably more diverse than in was in the 70s, prog has a much greater multiplicity of sources to draw from and make sense of.

Idk, I barely hear any prog in this or Deadwing personally

Album Rating: 4.5

wat? There's a ton of prog in both of those albums (though he did bring in some metal influences too)

Album Rating: 5.0

Deadwing has some pop songs and heavy ones too, it's a good mix of stuff, like on here but in a different way..

Album Rating: 4.0

Sound of Muzak >>>>

Deadwing has Arriving Somewhere... but also Lazarus, Shallow, Halo and Open Car, which are some of the most alt-rock songs PT has done

who cares, I think it is good that it is hard to pin down a specific genre, means they are dong something unique

Yea who cares, all I know is that even someone who doesn't love something over polished can appreciate something about .3. That song has one of the most chilling scopes ever.

the album that completely redefined my conception of what prog rock could be

Album Rating: 4.0

make that a soundoff bro, could be the next hot meme

Public enemy > Fear of a black planet

Porcupine tree > Fear of a blank planet

Don't know who I should trust.

It's definitely a winner. Wilson is one hell of a musician and songwriter. Songs like Lips Of Ashes, Heartattack In A Layby and Creator bring incredibly unique vibes.

So is he the Robert Fripp of our generation?
