the more i listen to this the more it just sounds like a bunch of technically proficient session musicians deciding to do some prog by numbers

atari: thank you my friend!



and i'm pretty happy with the direction he took this in. his other two solo albums really drag, and as previously stated are a bit anti-climactic.

Probably, I personally think SW solo stuff is boring tho. But you may enjoy it who knows. Give it a listen.

I still reckon the title track is like top 5 things he's ever done. So so good.

Luminol could've used more vocal sections imo, cos the "he strums the chords with less than grace..." part is brilliant but only appears once. Drive Home would be my second pick from this after t/t, but really it all rules except the Pin Drop.

Stupid Dream is the easiest PT album to get into, and its pretty good obv.



FOABP might be just a tad overrated but it is a brilliant album.
