Prog Reviews 2
The debut of the Norwegian project, 2019. Prog-rock out of one Hand.
2005. 313 is released, the fourth album from Phideaux. 13 songs. Not much prog but lots of different styles. And everything fits. CD.
In 2005, Phideaux released a “leftovers recycling” that packs a punch!
In 2004, Ghost Story was released by the busy Phideaux. It was much more progressive than its predecessor.
Following the magnificent "Doomsday Afternoon," "Number Seven" was released in 2009. And it's holding its own.
Crossover prog. About Big Brother, authority and climate change. Top musicians. The first album of a trilogy. CD, 2006.
2011 – Three years after Number 7, the EP Snowtorch was released. Leftovers? CD.
38 years young is my copy of The Wall in black vinyl. This album has written music hystory in 1979.
Wish You Were Here
by Pink Floyd
After the masterpiece "Darkside Of The Moon," Pink Floyd struggled to create a worthy successor. Finally, in 1975, "Wish You Were Here" was released.
Live. Concert on CD and visual on DVD. Tilburg 2008. Here as a reissue 2022 (2010). Fear of a Blank Planet complete and 11 more songs live.
2022 – Porcupine Tree released a new album after 13 years. Technically perfect, a good album. Has PT evolved?
Closure/Continuation Live
by Porcupine Tree
What looked like the end of PT got a new album in 2022, Closure/Continuation. The worthy live offshoot came in 2023. Perfect or more? Clear vinyl.
In 1997, the live album Coma Divine, featuring recordings of the Rome concerts, was released. It marked the gradual transition from psychedelic to prog rock.
Reissue von 2021 (2005), remastered von Steven Wilson 2017. Würdige Neuauflage dieses Albums in Black Vinyl.
Fear Of Blank Planet
by Porcupine Tree
Gatefold 2-LPs, black vinyl. Another prog album, Fear Of A Blank Planet by Porcuppine Tree, was released in 2007. Really good again?
Double LP In Absentia by Porcupine Tree. For many their masterpiece. In black vinyl. 2002.
Lightbulb Sun
by Porcupine Tree
Another step forward in the evolution of Porcupine Tree from the year 2000? Yes!
Nil Recurring
by Porcupine Tree
This vinyl EP was released in 2007 following the album "Fear Of A Blank Planet." A supplement or simply good music? Remastered in 2022.
Octane Twisted
by Porcupine Tree
Somehow the temporary end of Porcupine Tree was in the air in 2012 when Octane Twisted was released as a 4-LP box set. The Incident Live in Chicago. Black Vinyl.
On The Sunday Of Life
by Porcupine Tree
In 1992, the evolution to one of the best prog bands of our time began. Back then, it was still Steven Wilson's solo project.
In 2001, "Recordings" was released. It contained everything that hadn't made it onto the two previous albums.
In 1996, Signify was released, the first album that was developed by the entire band together. The PT project became the band PT.
Stupid Dream
by Porcupine Tree
1999 – Porcupine Tree continues its development. Will this go well after "Signify"?
The Incident
by Porcupine Tree
Gatefold 2-LPs, clear vinyl. Limited 2023. Another prog album, The Incident by Porcuppine Tree, was released in 2009. It was to be the last studio album for 12 years, until Closer/Continuation was released in 2021.
Porcupine Tree released the album "The Sky Moves Sideways" in 1995, which was re-released as a remaster in 2021. Psychedelic prog "reminiscent" of Pink Floyd.
Up The Downstair
by Porcupine Tree
For me, the first "real" album from the then-Project Porcupine Tree was released in 1993. The band's development continued, and in 2021 "UTD" was reissued on CD.
Porcupine Tree released two EPs in 1992 and 1993, which were remastered and released together in 2022. Ultimately, Steven Wilson's foray into ambient music proved to be short-lived.
We Lost The Skyline
by Porcupine Tree
Digipack Live CD, 2008. Porcuppine Tree reduced to electric and acoustic guitar. Different and that's why it works really well.
In 2015 a half-speed remaster of Queen's excellent second album, "Queen II," from 1974 was released. It covers a range of genres, from glam and rock to art and prog.
