Found my next amp. Not quite $4k!

[DrewJD82]

I was playing Anesthetize the other night, can't remember what preset or amp model, but I got to this part, and I was like Holy Sh!t! It sounded exactly like Steven Wilson's tone. (Wish I had saved/named the preset, as that's how I love to match a tone to a song- by accident.)

It's about time for my annual "Do I like Porcupine Tree yet?" listening party. Been trying for about 10 years now.

Are you out of your f*****g mind? They’re the best progressive rock band of the last thirty years.

meh

I'd rather listen to Opeth and Mastodon has entered the chat

The Incident is the only album of their's I've put any listening time into. There's some great stuff in there, although I've not been pulled into listening to other albums. I guess I just prefer 70's prog.

My meh was perfect. There has never been a more perfect meh.

I fart in your general direction.

Like Drew I really tried to like Porcupine Tree, but they have a certain smugness that I've always found off-putting. Their music just doesn‘t sound very heartfelt and thrilling to me. And the term „Progressive“… compared to modern Pop music even 70‘s Disco could be described as sophisticated or „progressive“.

The very first song I heard was Time Flies. I instantly thought of Pink Floyd.

@DrewJD82, it's like I used to say to band members, when deciding songs to play- You have a circle with Mastodon, Vai, DT, PF in it, mine has PF, DT, PT, Muse... Our circles overlap on some, but not on Mastodon and PT. That's why Baskin Robbins makes 31 flavors.

And as far as PT goes, I like select songs. That new album though, meh.

I really like Stars Die, which is utterly Floydy /cc @DrewJD82

 

[Deadpan]

This amp, otoh; still has my attention

Definitely would like to check one out. If it's like my matchless with higher gain and bigger tubes sounds like a win.

I used to like and listen to Porcupine Tree and now (being older and less inexperienced) when I listen to them it makes me cringe so much.

So many other bands I’d rather listen to instead who write better songs, play more interesting and clever parts, write better lyrics and have some kind of edge to them

The witch hunt continues...

I now hate like 97% of you.

To be fair, I've been listening to the Allman Bros. Band on repeat for a couple weeks, so...those in glass houses and all that...

Have you listened to Blackfield?
