sinisterplague
02.26.13 | I loved In Absentia at first listen, then it kind of grew off me. It's a bit sterile. Hoping to get into their other stuff. |
SaneTBP
02.26.13 | 1 is kinda boring for me, 4 is the best |
tempest--
02.26.13 | 1 is 1 even though I've only heard post-2000 PT nothing can be better than that it's so damn good |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | Yeah, Deadwing is great too |
KjSwantko
02.26.13 | 80% of the PT stuff bores me to death. |
CK
02.26.13 | 7 wtf man |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | Yeah, it's one of those albums like Symbolic where, no matter how much I try to get into it, it just doesn't happen :/ I like it, but not as much as I probably should |
Cipieron
02.26.13 | things are generally where they should be, kudos there |
AtomicWaste
02.26.13 | Fear of a Blank Planet is such a good album. |
DamnVanne
02.26.13 | This is a pretty unique ranking. Glad to see Signify getting more love than it usually gets
|
GnarlyShillelagh
02.26.13 | 7 seems low |
GnarlyShillelagh
02.26.13 | so does 3 actually |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | @DamnVanne Yeah, Signify's really underrated in my opinion. I love Sever and Every Home is Wired |

DamnVanne
02.26.13 | Sever is really good, but I think Waiting Phase Two is quickly becoming my favorite
|
EverythingEvil2113
02.26.13 | 7 is far too low friend, but swell list all the same. |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | Who else thinks that PT should be included in Metal Archives for the second half of their career? |
iSkane
02.26.13 | 1,3,4,7,2,5,6,9,8,10 |
JamieTwort
02.26.13 | If you turned this list upside down it would be closer to my ranking. Early PT > |
tiesthatbind
02.26.13 | 3,1,4,7,2,5,8,9,6,10 |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | I'll never understand why people dislike The Incident so much. It's not one of their best, but I'd still give it a 4/5 |
zxlkho
02.26.13 | Time Flies is one of their best songs, but the rest of the album really drags (except I Drive the Hearse) |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | "I am the resident PT expert so"
I'm right up there too; they were one of the first bands I ever listened to as a kid, and I've fanboyed to them since :P |
DamnVanne
02.26.13 | zx u can be expert too if u love I Drive the Hearse. I trust you |
tempest--
02.26.13 | I love The Incident, but I think they should have released the second disc separately as a follow up EP or something. |
zxlkho
02.26.13 | Bro I am listening to I Drive the Hearse at this very second no joke
fuckin' love that shit |
DamnVanne
02.26.13 | solo is tops. A great way to close The Incident, which is super underrated imo
|
Necrotica
02.26.13 | I'm listening to Sleep Together :P |
DamnVanne
02.26.13 | i just 5'd Incident, cuz i feel like it |
zxlkho
02.26.13 | The Incident is not that good overall. Tons of filler on it and I Drive the Hearse and Time Flies are
really the only "great" tracks. |
Mad.
02.26.13 | Stupid Dream is surely better than the Incident, at least?! |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | "I love The Incident, but I think they should have released the second disc separately as a follow up EP or something."
I've always rated The Incident solely on the first disc. I see the second disc as a bonus, but not part of the album |
zxlkho
02.26.13 | Criminally underrated PT track: Mellotron Scratch. |
Gee
02.26.13 | The Incident is joint number one for me alongside foabp. I 5d it |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | @zxlkho: Hellyeah, and Way Out of Here |
zxlkho
02.26.13 | Stars Die, Buying New Soul, and Last Chance... are also among my favorites (and not as well known) |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | Feel So Low is one of my favorite underrated PT songs... so much emotion |
DamnVanne
02.26.13 | Blind House, Your Unpleasant Family, The Seance and especially Circle of Manias are great tracks too imo |
Emyay
02.26.13 | Criminally underrated PT track: Mellotron Scratch. [2]
One of their best songs. That outro. |
Emyay
02.26.13 | Damn just saw you said Last Chance as well...I'm not too familiar with Stars Die and Buying New Soul but I'll have to check them out. i'd put Fear at 1 as well so I agree with the list although I think Stupid Dream > The Incident |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | Buying New Soul is AMAZING. That chorus gives me chills whenever I listen to it |
Emyay
02.26.13 | what album is it on? |
MikeC26
02.26.13 | Oh man, disagreed HARD on this... |

02.26.13 | @Emyay: It's on the deluxe edition of Lightbulb Sun, as well as on the compilation album Recordings |

02.26.13 | Slave Called Shiver needs moar love. |
tacos n stuff
02.26.13 | 7 is wayyy to low D: |
Emyay
02.26.13 | 7 feels so low.
sorry but i don't think i'll like anything pre stupid dream as much as i do the other stuff |
JamieTwort
02.26.13 | 8 > 9 > 7 > the rest. |
NapalmCrusader
02.26.13 | 7 should be higher |
Necrotica
02.26.13 | Yeah, I knew 7 would be the unpopular opinion. I still think it represented the rough transitional phase for the band until they did the alt rock thing better with Lightbulb Sun |
DamnVanne
02.26.13 | The moment where Steven sings "I'm not special like you!!" really brings the whole Stupid Dream album down. It's the only moment in the PT discography that makes me cringe |
MikeC26
02.26.13 | Open Car's lyrics are cheesy as all fuck too.
Lyrics have never been SW's strong suite. |
Necrotica
02.27.13 | Gotta love that heavy riff on Open Car though, that always gets me pumped |
Havey
03.01.13 | 7 8 and 9 are all way too low |
JamieTwort
03.01.13 | ^This hard. Those 3 are their best. |
Necrotica
03.02.13 | I don't know, I still enjoy their heavier era more overall |
MikeC26
03.02.13 | The later stuff is easier to get into than the older stuff but the older stuff is better |
someguest
03.02.13 | Your top two are correct. |
zxlkho
03.02.13 | Nah, the middle stuff is the best. Stupid Dream through In Absentia. |
Necrotica
03.06.13 | I'm actually starting to like Stupid Dream more now |
Firestarter
03.06.13 | I don't understand the acclaim for FOABP. Apart from the mind blowing middle section of Anesthetise (Intro takes forever and the 6 min outro is mind numbing) the rest of the songs are just incredibly mediocre. I just don't get it... |
Necrotica
03.08.13 | The only thing about FOABP that I didn't like was the production, which sounds underwhelming and a bit too quiet for the band's music IMO. Songs-wise, though, i absolutely love the album from beginning to end. And besides, that intro to Anesthetize has an Alex Lifeson solo :D |
Emyay
03.08.13 | its laughable to me that people would prefer the early stuff to the post stupid dream era. its just different tastes though. like, us folks that like the newer stuff obviously have vastly different tastes from those that like the old stuff. |
DamnVanne
03.08.13 | There is nothing mediocre about the non-Anesthetize tracks on FOABP. Sleep Together, the title track, and Way Out of Here are all amazing IMO. The mood and instrumentation are near perfect. My Ashes is kind of bland to me, but I know folks who love that song most of all, so I have to give it credit for being appealing. |
Necrotica
03.08.13 | Yeah, I love My Ashes. To me, it's probably the first time Steven Wilson made legitly great lyrics for a PT ballad (with the exception of Lazarus, of course) |
JamieTwort
03.08.13 | "its laughable to me that people would prefer the early stuff to the post stupid dream era."
Well I think the oposite so yeah different tastes I guess. |
Emyay
03.08.13 | Don't forget sentimental guys, another fave. Sleep together is probably my least favorite, although its not bad at all. |
Necrotica
03.09.13 | Sleep Together is weird as hell, but I still enjoy it |
DamnVanne
03.09.13 | I did. I forgot about Sentimental. That one rules, arguably harder than anything else on that album |
demigod!

04.27.13 | good list, just swap 1 and 4 and you pretty much have my list |
Keyblade
04.27.13 | 9 is way too low. think i said that already tho |
Artuma
04.27.13 | yea i would bump it a little higher too but list is basically the same as mine |
mark1991
04.27.13 | Congrats for lightbulb sun being 2...underrated album in their discovery. The Rest will flow is pretty dam brilliant,as is Russia on Ice |

06.11.13 | 1 is too high. 7 is too low (their
best imo). 10 is fine where it is. 6
is too high. 8 and 9 are too low.
This couldn't get any wronger.[2] |
Necrotica
06.11.13 | Yeah, I'm not the hugest fan of their earlier discog |
OmairSh
06.11.13 | You guys are so hard to satisfy, coincidentally that's also what she said. |
YoYoMancuso
06.11.13 | 1 is completely average, 6 is absolute shit. i can't decide whether 5 or 2 is their best album |
Artuma
06.11.13 | sputnikers are usually more into the old PT but i like their newer stuff more too |
NeroCorleone80
06.11.13 | Actually more are into the newer stuff its just that those who like old PT post more. |
Artuma
06.11.13 | that's what i meant |
NeroCorleone80
06.11.13 | I'm one of the few that like it all the same |
YoYoMancuso
06.11.13 | i like their newer sound, Deadwing would probably be third in my ranking. |
Artuma
06.11.13 | yeah Nero, they are all quality and i think i have all their albums at 4-4.5 except OtSoL. but i have
more 4.5's with the newer albums |
OmairSh
06.11.13 | Watch out guys, Jamie's coming with his older PT beats all argument |
NeroCorleone80
06.11.13 | He likes Deadwing though |
Emyay
06.11.13 | 1 is 1 |
Artuma
06.11.13 | watch out guys, oltna's coming with his everything beats PT argument |
OmairSh
06.11.13 | Surprisingly since it's pretty metal/hard rock tinged. But it's a fantastic record, can't resist |
JamieTwort
06.11.13 | sup |
Necrotica
06.11.13 | sup Jamie |
OmairSh
06.11.13 | oltna hates SW because he catalysed bringing Mikael Akerfeldts soft side to the fore |
Artuma
06.11.13 | Ã…kerfeldt's soft side rules tho |
NeroCorleone80
06.11.13 | yeah its not like there aren't enough heavy Opeth albums to listen to |
OmairSh
06.11.13 | Guess it makes oltna feel like less of a man |
OmairSh
06.11.13 | "its not like there aren't enough heavy Opeth albums to listen to"
HARD! |
UnderTheNorthernScar
09.17.13 | i agree with number 1, but 3 and 4 should be bumped up one spot each
