About four years ago Silhobbit 'discovered' Porcupine Tree, although by
then they had already done about five albums and a couple of tours. The
band's line up includes two ex-Japan members and main-man Steve Wilson is
currently working with Fish. Now they are a fully established band and
certainly the only British prog band capable of making the big time.
They've done two live 'Radio One' sessions, gigs in America and support
slots with Marillion. They've made friends with NME, Sounds, and even
Kerrang! I don't think that there is anyone who would disagree that these
boys have a new style of Progressive music that is in a league of its own.
They've released about five singles now, and each time they get aired on
the radio there are more converts. This one is more commercial than the
single 'Moonloop' and their record company are doing a lot to promote it.
'Waiting' is radio friendly, brilliantly produced, and even has something
that Oasis fans would like. It begins with light percussion, guitar
strumming, and vocals, and then the bass and drums enter. The song is very
catchy and you can't help but tap your feet, and sing along. Steve
Wilson's vocals and guitar are indeed very good. To keep the out and out
prodders happy the song links into the next one which is an instrumental
in true Porcupine Tree style. The 3rd track - 'The Sound of No-one
Listening', is more like the long Prog/Floyd bits that we all loved from
'The Sky Moves Sideways' album. There are some excellent spacey guitar and
keyboard sounds in this space-rock epic. Porcupine Tree are going to be at
'The Classic Rock Society's' weekend festival, so make sure that you get
into the finest band in prog before the gig!
