I don't get the hate for The Incident. It's not an offensive album.

The Incident is great but FOABP is better than it and this

@Buttery: Exactly. It might be one of their weakest, but it's still a decent alternative rock/metal album
|

one of the weakest golden era opeth records

still don't get what it is why people love foabp so much. great stuff here and there but the metal sections sound often very forced, steven's vocals are fairly dry and the lyrics, as has been well established, are pure cringe

Nah. If you want forced PT metal, listen to Blackest Eyes again :D

The lyrics of FOABP are weak, but I feel as though they fit with the theme of the album. They might be written in the point of view of the teenagers Wilson is referencing often

yeah it's from the teenagers' perspective but you can easily see it's a middle-aged man doing it. the lyrics are so shallow and stereotypical it's not even funny

The only lyrics that REALLY make me cringe are "xbox is a god to me, a finger on the switch my mother is a bitch my father gave up ever trying to talk to me" and "burn my prada trainers"

Agreed with Soccer, and the metal sections on Blank Planet aren't any worse than the previous albums. The only time it bothers me is Way Out of Here, the four songs before it are amazing.
Blackest Eyes is one of their best short heavy songs because Wilson's voice isn't singing over the heavy sections, which is how it should be. His voice is better with the lighter melodic stuff.

blackest eyes is so incoherent it hurts. also for me that song still holds the gold standard of horrid lyricism with the line "it's so erotic when your make up runs"

I actually think FOABP might be more unbearable than The Incident at times.

I've never really understood why PT's considered a prog band and worshipped by so many prog fans anyway. Sure, their early stuff is prog, but much of their stuff from Stupid Dream onward could just be considered alternative rock or alternative metal. I don't see that as a problem, as I love alternative rock music, but I do find PT to be quite mislabeled
|
| |
I don't really think of them as prog at all. First they were psych, then alt. rock, although the latter era does seem to be typical of that so-called alt. prog style/scene, but that isn't really prog anyway.

I just love going on ProgArchives and watching reviewers try to link Porcupine Tree to classic 70s prog bands, and yet they utterly fail to do so because of the lack of similarities
