Paul K Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Porcupine Tree. The greatest band nobody has heard of. Interesting. A friend lent me this book "The Best Music You've Never Heard" by Nigel Williamson http://www.amazon.com/Music-Youve-Never-Heard-Reference/dp/1848360037/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1261872472&sr=1-1 It's kind of a hoot. I plug the artist's name into Pandora and get to hear one of their tracks (or more if I stick around) while I read the page and a half writeup. Things are just the way they are, and they're only going to get worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffinator Posted December 26, 2009 Author Share Posted December 26, 2009 Porcupine Tree. The greatest band nobody has heard of. Funny you mention them. I've listened to a LOT of their stuff, but the only record that really excited me to date was the newest one I've heard, Fear of a Blank Planet. Lot of frenetic energy on that album that I can really dig, that really wasn't there on a lot of early stuff. The funny part is that I've had the title track from that CD stuck in my head for several days. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.

biguglyman Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 The story of the band itself and how it came to be is interesting. They were originally just a side project of the guitarist and keyboard player. They threw a couple tunes on compilation cd's and made up an imaginary band bio to put with it. When their tracks caught on, they actually had to go out and form a band. Their varying styles and sounds over the years is one of the things that I find appealing. From very early experimental sounding stuff (think Pink Floyd) to their newer progressive/metal stuff, Steve Wilson (lead guitar, vocals, songwriter) continues to amaze me with his seemingly inexhaustible supply of creative ideas. Fear Of A Blank Planet is a great CD. I "discovered" these guys when I saw them open for Yes back in 2002 right after they released In Absentia (another great CD). They also have a dvd out from a live performance several years ago in Chicago. Colin Edwin is a phenomenal bassist. Check them out. You will not be disappointed. http://www.porcupinetree.com/ "There's not enough bass in the mix unless the first three rows are having involuntary bowel movements." http://www.myspace.com/biguglyman_bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcadmus Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Betty or Veronica? Mary Ann or Ginger? Betty and Mary Ann, no question. Betty was a smoking hot blonde, and Mary Ann had that mixture of farm-girl wholesomeness and smoldering hot looks. Veronica and Ginger? One look and you just know they're VERY high maintenance.

Bottomgottem Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 No one can possibly defend this: I can't say much for Ms. Twain, but the band behind her (Union Staion) is one of the finest ever assembled. My whole trick is to keep the tune well out in front.

During the rest of that show AKUS backed ST on some of her hit songs. They sounded wonderful. Shania is very pretty, has a nice voice, and maybe has the ability to write catcht country -pop songs. It'll be interesting to see how she gets on w/o Mutt Lange to produce her. I never cared for his production anyway, might be an improvement from my POV.
