"Blank Planet Album ..." is a 6 minute mixture of the songs on the album. Little bits from each song. It sounds awesome. I want it.

I prefer his earlier stuff, but I can't complain about the new stuff either, it's still awesome.

Re: Fear Of A Blank Planet (Porcupine Tree)

blackest eyes is a great song.

Re: Fear Of A Blank Planet (Porcupine Tree)

Yeah, that would be under "new stuff". Like I said, tis good and all, but the earlier stuff is far better. "On The Sunday Of Life", "Signify" and "The Sky Moves Sideways" are the best albums. "Stupid Dream" "LightBulb Sun" and whatnot are 2nd best. Deadwing is one of my least favourites.

Finally arrived today. Was at work all day so have only got to listen to it now. After the first listen I have to admit I like it quite a bit. Definite improvement on Deadwing.

First song isn't that good in my opinion. Far too much similarities with it and about half the songs on Deadwing. More of a catchy rock tune that is a little too repetitive at times. The album really hits a high with Anesthetize, amazing song with some really good parts. After Anesthetize it's pretty much an A* album, the last 3 songs are better than the first 2. Way Out Of Here and Sleeping Together are probably early runners for my favourite song on the album, they both are insanely good.

Still prefer older albums though. Shame, but this is just the direction that they are taking and nothing I can do about that apart from enjoy it.
