Definately true. Though I do have sort of a problem with them. They sometimes go too far trying to sound like Floyd, which annoys me.

They have a very similar vibe, but I don't think they really sound like them all that much.

This thread sucks, because Porcupine Tree are awful.

Theres something thats going wrong here. I thought I'd heard this band on a modern/classic rock radio station in Rhode Island about 5 years ago or so, and it was standard post-grunge shlock. Gathering from the amazing amount of support they get from certain members I'm inclined to ask...

Could they be misconstrued as that? Did they evolve? Is there any one song that would get played on a station that loved their Godsmack or am I just a shmuck thinking of another band. I'll go research, but I'd still like to know.

Edit: Ok I can see how I might have remembered "Blackest Eyes" as something that was more akin to Ultraspank or Fictionplane or one of those craptastical pieces of ****, but I checked out a few other songs and its clear their not akin to anything like those bands (though I still think Ultraspank's "where" is amazing). Would anyone care to suggest their favorite song. Make it one of those deep inaccessible songs, I can check the Top 5 on iTunes if I need to get something more open.

I'm not sure this was meant to be serious Gravity. Your statement must have been made in ignorance to Unfan's general posture here on the boards. I might give you some of your own advice and say "get with it."

They're not bad by ANY means, but nowhere near the best of all time. Not even the best of recent years.
