      @MusicForTheSoulReactions got into them in lockdown Steve, amazing stuff and his solo work, he's also remastered The Beatles, Yes, Genesis, Jethro Tull, worked with Elton John, I'd recommend 'Arriving Somewhere but not Here' solo track 'Home Invasion/Regret no. 9'

    Yea! My favorite band that made music in the 2,000s.
    Gavin Harrison is the best drummer alive in my opinion.
    Steven Wilson is the brilliant composer.
    Please check out the song Luminol from his solo stuff off the best album in the past 11 years, the Raven that refused to Sing. His first few solo albums were still prog with a dash of metal, but with Jazz mixed in!

    You'll see during this song that the keyboard player looks over and gives the drummer a little smile after particularly intense drum fills.

    One of my favorite bands for 20 years now (god that statement makes me feel old).
    I missed seeing this show in Tilburg (which is in the Netherlands btw, as a million people probably already told you) because of person reasons, thinking I would just catch their next show. Before they got back to the Netherlands they broke up for 12 years.... When they announced they would do another album and another tour in 2021 I bought tickets right away. Keep in mind, this was high-tide COVID lockdown, but luckily I got to go in November of 2022. And man... They are as good live now as they were 12 years ago, some might even argue they are better.
    IDK if they will do another tour. But if they do, I am 100% sure to be there. Because these guys SHINE when they play live. Absolutely no doubt about it.

    Now you get why I kept banging on about PT they are sublime . The drummer is Gavin Harrison easily one of the best drummers in the world, lead singer is Stephen Wilson one of the most admired producers in the world. The song is about overuse of anti- depressants and society refusing to deal with reality , the line about all the pills in me and electricity is a direct reference to Prozac withdrawal . Loved the reaction

    This band's live videos are great for reactions, as they always live up to the quality of their studio recordings. Line up a few more, you won't be disappointed! I suggest Arriving Somewhere But Not Here, Hatesong, Strip the Soul, What Happens Now, Cheating the Polygraph, Time Flies, and The Sky Moved Sideways.

    Ah yes Steve.. one of my fav bands... Saw Steven Wilson solo live.. Phenomenal.. so glad you liked them! So much more for you to explore.. a good while ago I requested ''Arriving Somewhere But Not Here'' im sure its on the list but would be a good one from them to keep reminding you to stay going back to them as a fearure band on your channel, just like Zepplin & Genesis etc... Its another big rabbit hole and im looking forward to it..

    This has been in my top 5 songs since discovering it about a decade ago (it was released 2007 but i discovered it much later), along with a couple of solo Steven Wilson tracks. Mr. Wilson is also known for the quality of all of his productions, this being a stellar one! Fun fact: the studio recording of this has Alex Lifeson doing the solo starting about 7:20ish here....
    Porcupine Tree went on hiatus after their 2009 release, but three of the members reconnected and released Closure/Continuation in 2022. There was a short tour, but it may be the last we see of them. Steven Wilson still tours as a solo artist is touring again starting Spring 2025. His solo work is excellent and even more diverse stylistically.

    This starts less grungy than 'Blackest Eyes' but moves to a Progy Metal sound. For some reason the beginning reminds me of "Paranoid Android" by Radiohead.
    Nice drums then a grungy groove.

  • @scifimonkey3
    @scifimonkey3 6 днів тому +6

    Phenomenal band and thats not easy for me to type let alone say. On to other masterpieces live such as ‘ Fear of a blank planet’, ‘Arriving somewhere but not here’, or ‘Hatesong’. Oh and Tilburg is in Holland😂 and as for touring they toured in 2023 however we are left guessing as to whether they will do so again. The last album in 2022 was their first for 13 years and was enigmatically called CLOSURE/CONTINUATION leaving it open as to whether they would produce anything more together. Steven Wilson will be touring in the UK next year in May as a ‘Solo’ artist however the band that he puts together for his Solo tours is arguably the equal of Porcupine Tree. Check out ‘Ancestral’ Live from the Royal Albert Hall in 2018 on YT to get an idea of what his solo work is like (its not much different to PT tbh)

    Wow. Most reactors never react to this band. 1990’s onward British prog rock/ metal is not huge in the US as a genre. I discovered them a few years ago through UA-cam. Anesthetize was the first song I heard by then and I was mesmerized. Kinda floaty and spacey…then laying down some Tool-like licks. Immensely talented. I was totally shocked that I seem to like prog metal bands much more than the old prog rock bands like Yes or ELP.
    who knew? Just goes to show you can discover great new music even in your 70’s if you keep an open mind and heart.

      Love this! Especially the keeping an open mind, I hope I stay along that path now I've started as I get older too! I'm pretty much guided by what's suggested within my comments section so I have no clue what's popular amongst other reaction channels, I guess on some occasions I'll therefore find some duds no one watches but also some hidden gems. Thanks for sharing your thoughts

    Love this band, never saw them live. They reformed and did a tour recently. Unfotunately, the wife is not a fan, and wouldn't go. I know, I'm a big boy and could have went on my own. Silly me, I don't think they will ever tour again. Now my wife says "they're ok" and she loves "Blackest Eyes". Too little, too late. Anyway, this is a great song and performance. At least I can enjoy the video. Please do more! US Roadie 1 signing off..

    Fabulous, enthusiastic and honest reaction. Loved it. Someone who truly gets what this phenominal band and the genius of Steven Wilson are really about. As others have mentioned, sooooo many possible other tracks to react too. Just make sure any you do react to are always LIVE. SW is simply unparrallelled live. Nonone else comes close. Anything else from this DVD Live in Tilburg - but especially Way Out of Here or Cheating the Polygraph or if you want to go with most recent LIVE PT - Try "Fear of a Blank Planet" or "Harridan" from their most recent LIVE DVD Closure/Continuation. Just brilliant. Keep em coming....

    Great prog rock from masters. I love anything from Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson solo. So much to choose from that I'm having trouble picking out one or two. I love "Trains", "Mellotron Scratch", "My Ashes" but most anything you may decide on will be excellent. I've not seen many reactors do a deep dive into Porcupine Tree. This band makes some beautiful music.

    I sawe them live three times, and Steven solo twice. They did a reuion tour a year or two ago, but they don;t tour anymore. although, Steven Wilson make solo music and tours with his band and they plays PT songs here and there when they are on tour.

    Hi Steve. I’ll try to keep this short. One of my all time favorite bands! Although considered prog. A term Steven Wilson, singer guitarist and main writer for his band dislikes. They play all sorts of genres and even write short 3 and a half minute rock songs. All of them are amazingly talented! Gavin Harrison is the most incredible drummer. His flow is beyond words and my fav drummer. Love the Dr Who reference! I’m a big fan as well. My fav doctor is David Tennent. Love his quirky approach as the Dr

    Steve Wilson, the lead singer, is certainly the most known prog musician from the 20 last years. That is also due to the fact that, himself big fan from 70's prog, he did a lot of remixing of great albums from Yes, Gentle Giant, King Crimson and so on.

    Gavin Harrison is a really accomplished drummer. Interesting fact, that after Porcupine Tree originally broke up, Steven Wilson went solo and chose Nick Beggs of Kajagoogoo fame as his bass player. Nick then went on to be voted best Prog bass player 5 times.
