I Guess you guys will want to see me check out the Live version now that I’ve heard the studio version? Subscribe to the channel & we’ll make that happen!🔥 Can we hit 1,000 likes in 24 hours? Have a feeling you guys are gonna show mad love on this video❤️🤟🏼
The live version is just as good as this one ;)... Anyways, try "Arriving Somewhere But not Here" by Porcupine Tree (studio version or live vesion are from another planet)
You are starting to listen to everything I listen too. Opeth, Tool, PorcupineTree/Steven Wilson, Gojira. List goes on. Honestly, I have no idea what to recommend from Steven Wilson because everything he writes is a masterpiece on it’s own. I could talk your ear off on this guy. I really encourage you to keep pursuing his music.
I've had Porcupine Tree's "Normal" in my playlist for years and only just now started to listen the rest of their stuff. I am depressed it took me this long to do so
Opeth's singer, and Steven Wilson did a project called 'Storm Corrosion' . It's super chillout stoney dreamy music. Maybe not ideal for reaction video. But, an amazing masterpiece as well.
"Arriving Somewhere" and "Trains" are must-listens. Also, nobody knows them these days, but I *strongly* suggest Echolyn - Speaking In Lampblack. It's not heavy, but it's prog genius that moves you. Great stuff, sir.
That's a very good suggestion. I haven't seen anybody mention Echolyn anywhere before this. They are an excellent act and I have enjoyed their music for years.
PT fans, vote this up! Try these next (in chronological order, in case you want to observe their evolution): -"Wake as Gun I" and "Dark Matter" off of 'Signify' (1996) -"Trains" and "The Sound of Muzak" - 'In Absentia' (2002) - this album is what a lot of fans and critics consider their masterpiece and it's where my personal journey started "Arriving Somewhere but not Here" - 'Deadwing' (2005) "Way Out of Here" and "Sentimental" - 'Fear of a Blank Planet' (2007) "Time Flies" and "The Blind House" - 'The Incident' (2009) You won't regret any of those. They've been around a while before those suggestions. Since 2011, unfortunately, they have disbanded, but remain one of THE progressive giants. Steven Wilson has a side project called Blackfield that would be worth checking out as well, and I believe he still writes for it. Mikael Akerfeldt of Opeth and Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree are friends, and have collaborated before (see Storm Corrosion; suggested track: "Storm Corrosion"). That's probably why you were flooded with all the suggestions, mine incuded. Welcome to Porcupine Tree man! If you don't react to any of those, at least listen to them on your own time. They'll take you places.
what about Russia on Ice, Even Less, Hatesong, Buying New Soul etc? Personally, my favourite albums are "Stupid Dream" and "Lightbulb Sun", maybe because I started listening to them when Stupid Dream came out and I absolutely loved Chris Maitland on the drums too.
Deadwing is not only Arriving somewhere. There's also Lazarus ,Open Car ,Mellotron Scratch etc. I would also add Normal - nil recurring. Yes it's similar to Sentimental but better in my opinion.
Their masterpiece and one of the greatest songs ever. Steven Wilson is a musical genius. When you say that in certain parts they sound like Zeppelin, they actually sound more like Pink Floyd in those parts. You definitely need to check out the live version of this song. It's even better live.
I think it's because the keyboard/synth can sound similar to Led Zeppelin at the parts he brings up the comparison. I can definitely make comparisons to No Quarter in the last section where he did make the comparison again.
Broooo I've been commenting for MONTHS to do a Porcupine Tree reaction!!! THANK YOU!!! This is gonna make me join your patreon, definitely. You should react to the song Arriving Somewhere But Not Here from the DVD Arriving Somewhere....
Gavin is the cleanest drummer i've ever listened. Every fill, every ghost notes/pressed roll, every splash. Perfect. Simply perfect. When you listen PT or Steven, it's an experience, and you stay smiling and crying at the same time.
I first heard this song in 2011, when I was 18. As the song progressed, my emotions ran the entire range of human feelings. I didn't even think it was possible for a single song to have that effect on someone. Ever since that first listen, I couldn't stop. To say that Anesthetize hits me right in the feels, and is one of the best songs ever would somehow only begin to describe how I feel about it.
this song has maybe my favourite hook I've ever heard in any song ever..."It's all in ME, all in you" I'll never not have the biggest smile I've ever smiled on my face whenever I hear it :P (have to say though the title track is my favourite overall on the album)
You absolutely need to react to the live version it's just mind blowing! if not then I'd highly recommend fear of a blank planet and blackest eyes by the same band!
If you like the more mellow last part of this track, you HAVE to check out the following by Porcupine Tree: Mellotron scratch, Dark matter, Lazarus, Russia on ice, and most of the Deadwing album in general. Actually, if you ever feel like taking on a whole album, Deadwing and In Absentia are essential listening. Fear of a blank planet and The Incident too. And Steven Wilson's solo albums as well. Steven has the Midas touch, man.
Porcupine Tree are huge! They have been around since early 90's I think. I first listened to them around '98, the album 'The sky moves sideways' and an amazing live album 'Coma Divine'. Oh man you have to listen to this live album!
Drew, if you liked this song so much I think you will really appreciate "Arriving Somewhere But Not Here" from Porcupine Tree. It is another long track full of arrangements and a beautiful solo by Mikael Åkerfeldt from Opeth. Other songs I would recommend are "Ancestral" and "Luminol" from Steven Wilson and "The Czar", "The Last Baron" or "Sleeping Giant" from Mastodon.
I just listened to this song for the first time while watching this video, and I have to say, it has been awhile since I've felt chills like this song made me feel. Thank you so much for reacting!
Porcupine Tree. Awesome. Great performance, top notch production. And man, Gavin Harrison drumming. He's in my top 5 drummers right next to TOOLs Danny Carey. Different but awesome as well. Anesthesize is a song I had to have on repeat for days in the beginning to get all the small details. Awesome track. Good job. Keep it up. Stay safe.
Welcome to the party! Also be sure to check out Steven Wilson's solo work. I think you would dig the songs Home Invasion/ Regret Number 9, Luminol, The Watch Maker, and Remainder the Black Dog.
Great reaction! To experience Steven Wilson's talent and musicality in full just go for this one next :: Steven Wilson - Luminol (from the Get All You Deserve Blu-Ray & DVD) or Steven Wilson - Home Invasion /Regret #9 full HD 1080p live from [Home Invasion Live 2018 BLUERAY CD
Shout out to you good Sir, for mentioning Evergrey!! Yes! What a brilliant band. Powerful, melodic, full of emotion and some of the best songs that sadly hasnt reached out to lots of others. I think Evergrey are one of the most Underrated bands in the world. "Passing Through" is the song that I first heard from them,and I was stunned that I had not discovered them before. I soon bought all their albums. And there's something for everyone in all of them. Recent album, The Atlantic was yet another classic. I wish more people listened to them!
kylereece1979 Evergrey is awesome!! I’ve seen them twice the last few years in Las Vegas and Portland OR. Sadly, this type of music is not well excepted on the west coast of the States. Both shows had about 50 people attending. I felt bad for them, but they played their asses off like there were thousands of peoples here. Got to have a beer with them at both shows. Great humble dudes. Evergrey is top notch!!
@@jamesmurray5535 I only happened upon them over 3 years ago, I heard "Passing Through". I couldnt get over how amazing it was. And I could not believe that Id never heard them before. I buy/collect rock magazines and Id never read about them. It is insane how Underrated they are. Anybody thats into anything from Alter Bridge to Metallica and anyting inbetween will like them. Emotive, atmospheric anthemic, and real. Im Irish,and justover a year ago,they made their headlining debut here in a club to about 150 people in Dublin. They were playing like it was a 10,000 peopled arena, told us how much they appreciated us for showing up,and were amazing to anyone that wanted to meet n'greet afterwards. I saw them for the first time in 2018 at a metal festival in England. They went on earlyish in the day, and again played a headline worthy set. They should be Huge! Tanks for the reply ,and I hope you are well and safe.
Wow Devin Townsend AND Porcupine Tree in the same day. Your getting into top tier musicians. I wish I could coach you lol. The Live version of this in Tilburg is just mindbogglingly magnificent. Their Drummer Gavin Harrison is an absolute legend.
One of the best Musical Drummers on the Planet in that Band. He is not just rhythm he also gives emotions and melodies to Songs. He is basically a Prog-Version of a Pocket-Drummer. Like a Prog-Steve Gadd :D my 2nd favourite drummer alive currently
First time popping into this channel, but your excitement for a band I'm familiar with, is amazing. Easy subscription! I'm looking forward to what else you'll discover and share with us! See you around!
Delightful surprise you discovered Porcupine Tree. The live version is indeed stunning. The band are master musicians.I concur with others:" "Arriving Somewhere" is a great track. I really like "Dark Matter" and "She's Moved On" too.
First time hearing this band. I am totally blown away. God, they are in the stratosphere in talent......beautiful song. For me, I hear Pink Floyd influence ALLOT with Tool thrown in....This is true story stoner music to me...reminds me of getting lost in Pink Floyd back in the seventies......
It's my favorite Album of all time see my Icon and Steven Wilson is the Beethoven of our time all his Albus are different and even his B Stuff is better then 99% of other Artists Music. Check out Neil Recuring the Songs who did not fit on fear of a blank Planet
I have posted this before but this is more relevant here: Talking about progressive artists you could definitely try Porcupine Tree, Anathema, Gazpacho, Katatonia,The Pineapple Thief, Rush and Karnivool.
@@Thrasher0411 Anathema, along with Porcupine Tree, Spock's Beard and Rush were the very first prog music that I started listening and they helped me cultivate a linking for this expansive genre.
First heard this track two years ago. Probably only the fourth or fifth PT song I'd ever heard. I'm sixty years old, so I've heard pretty much everything there is to hear. But this thing has my jaw in my lap every time I listen to it, and I listen to it A LOT. I have NEVER been so blown away by a band or a piece of music...EVER. Such a fucking joy!
Last Chance to Evacuate Planet Earth, Arriving Somewhere, Lazarus, Trains, Shallow and Deadwing are all bangers as well. Other artist/songs you should check out is The Ocean - Devonian: Nascent and Katatonia, either the songs Last Song Before the Fade, Shifts or Hypnone
React to Drive home - Steven Wilson. Amongst the amazing composition you'll also get a taste of one of the greatest guitarists "Guthrie Govan". You'll get an idea when you hear the solo.
this is one of my favourite songs ever. i get the same uncontrollable emotion and feelings, non stop smiling and even bopping the groove of it. such a masterpiece. Cheers!
Had the widest smile throughout the whole video, the goosebumps and seeing that track hit you brought back vivid memories of seeing them for the first time ever playing this back in 2007. Goosebumps. goosebumps.
So many great parts to this song. The mid section with the heavy guitar going left, right is so mean and then the light major Rhodes sounding piano on top of it is genius. The mixing of those emotions there are what they were so good at. Epic piece of work.
Honestly everything by porcupine tree/Steven Wilson is genius imo. From here I would say the best direction to go would be “blackest eyes” or “halo”, not as proggy as this but definitely shows their skills in making kickass ‘single’-style songs
If you enjoy Tool and Porcupine Tree or in general prog trippy stuff, you should definitely listen to Riverside ( progressive rock / progressive metal ) . Do a reaction of Riverside - Hybrid Times. I think you’ll fall in love with them.
Dig a little farther back to "Stars Die", and then "Dark Matter", both studio tho, hard to play live. Mellow, ethereal... awesome guitar solo end of D.M. Loved your reactions tho, same as mine ten years ago.😉
Thanks for doing Porcupine Tree, Been enjoying your videos the last couple of weeks and thought only a matter of time before you start doing Porcupine Tree. Glad you started with song. Plenty of other Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson solo work to go threw!
Every track of this band is between AWESOME and OUTSTANDING... My list of tracks for you to check out after Trains: Lightbulb Sun Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled The Sleep Of No Dreaming Even Less Drown With Me Blackest Eyes Strip The Soul The Sound Of Muzak Arriving Somewhere But Not Here Halo
Try Hatesong by Them(Porcupine Tree) Live version. it's my most favorite Live Version of their song and for me that was their Live Peak at that moment. Absolutely Amazing.
You're in for a real treat with this band. They're one of the best for progressive. It's smoother than Tool, they will never flat out drop you on your face like Tool does but they're incredibly smooth and the singer is incredible. Sound of Musak, Arriving Somewhere but not here, Blackest Eyes, and on and on and on, they have an incredible library.
I Guess you guys will want to see me check out the Live version now that I’ve heard the studio version? Subscribe to the channel & we’ll make that happen!🔥
Can we hit 1,000 likes in 24 hours? Have a feeling you guys are gonna show mad love on this video❤️🤟🏼
Live version is the real deal
They used to be really good live... it's a shame they don't want to get together and do a tour now :D. Guess I was born too late.
The live version is just as good as this one ;)... Anyways, try "Arriving Somewhere But not Here" by Porcupine Tree (studio version or live vesion are from another planet)
@@sebaxextremo Arriving Somewhere But not Here. Oh my that song is awesome.
Please react to Alcest - Printemps Émeraude.
"Fear of a Blank Planet" is sooo good, "Arriving somewhere but not here" is gold, "The start of something beautiful" also... Man I love Porcupine Tree
Yes it's such a good album, I've spent a lot of my darkest months listening to "Way Out of Here" and "Sentimental"
Well said. A great band that largely fly under the radar.
Fear of a blank planet
Entry level PT pieces. Great tracks tho, best Prog band imo
Both are my favorites of that album, great choices my man :)
Porcupine Tree is pure ear candy.
The most perfect definition of this band i've ever heard or read
Gavin Harrison on drums. An absolute monster.
Oh yeah!!!
Top 1 imo
Him and Jimmy Chamberlin are the best modern rock drummers.
I was literally about to say the same! Dynamically one of the finest drummers that’s ever graced the earth!
One of the best!
Bro porcupine tree and Steven Wilson will be a big long rabbit hole. It's all good, and all a little different depending on the album
Haha I got into them just before Deadwing and it was fully 10 years before I started listening to anything other than SW again. Rabbit hole indeed....
I’m happy to report that I’m still in the rabbit hole.
You are starting to listen to everything I listen too. Opeth, Tool, PorcupineTree/Steven Wilson, Gojira. List goes on.
Honestly, I have no idea what to recommend from Steven Wilson because everything he writes is a masterpiece on it’s own. I could talk your ear off on this guy. I really encourage you to keep pursuing his music.
You just named my favorite bands that borderlines this genre. Just add ISIS and Cult of Luna :)
My fav steve Wilson song is The Raven that Refused to Sing. Hauntingly beautiful.
SW is a great musician, but not everything he pushes is gold, man
Routine, raven that refused to sing, book of regrets.. i could go on forever!
indeed dude, that's exactly it!
crazy how this has been out for years now and finally getting some sort of noise....people finally wkaing up to good music.
I've had Porcupine Tree's "Normal" in my playlist for years and only just now started to listen the rest of their stuff. I am depressed it took me this long to do so
If you like porcupine tree and Steven Wilson then we are friends.
Ok Mr. Harry
WHAT? Porcupine Tree!
GIVE US MORE!
Opeth's singer, and Steven Wilson did a project called 'Storm Corrosion' . It's super chillout stoney dreamy music. Maybe not ideal for reaction video. But, an amazing masterpiece as well.
Steven Wilson produced Blackwater Park, then Opeths next album is Ghost Reveries. Coincidence? I think not. Lol!
@@themetalpig7613 did not know that. Blackwater's park is such a masterpiece. it doesnt surprise me.
Oh my god I FORGOT about that. Holy shit!
@@themetalpig7613 They did Deliverance and Damnation together after Blackwater, and THEN Ghost came out ;)
@a HERO that doesn’t know what protect means Mike's married. what? on the dl?
“This is euphoric”, the best way to describe this band. Keep up the good work Drew
"Arriving Somewhere" and "Trains" are must-listens.
Also, nobody knows them these days, but I *strongly* suggest Echolyn - Speaking In Lampblack. It's not heavy, but it's prog genius that moves you. Great stuff, sir.
Really glad you added Trains. Prog bots tend to overlook that one.
That's a very good suggestion.
I haven't seen anybody mention Echolyn anywhere before this. They are an excellent act and I have enjoyed their music for years.
Amen
Hey random guy or girl on the internet, thanks for the great recommendation, indeed a very touching piece of music. I love every second of it!
@@kevinkuypers9445 You're welcome, Kevin. They're one of my favorite bands and more people should know about them!
PT fans, vote this up! Try these next (in chronological order, in case you want to observe their evolution):
-"Wake as Gun I" and "Dark Matter" off of 'Signify' (1996)
-"Trains" and "The Sound of Muzak" - 'In Absentia' (2002) - this album is what a lot of fans and critics consider their masterpiece and it's where my personal journey started
"Arriving Somewhere but not Here" - 'Deadwing' (2005)
"Way Out of Here" and "Sentimental" - 'Fear of a Blank Planet' (2007)
"Time Flies" and "The Blind House" - 'The Incident' (2009)
You won't regret any of those. They've been around a while before those suggestions. Since 2011, unfortunately, they have disbanded, but remain one of THE progressive giants.

what about Russia on Ice, Even Less, Hatesong, Buying New Soul etc?
Personally, my favourite albums are "Stupid Dream" and "Lightbulb Sun", maybe because I started listening to them when Stupid Dream came out and I absolutely loved Chris Maitland on the drums too.
I agree with all of these, but add in blackest eyes.
Deadwing is not only Arriving somewhere. There's also Lazarus ,Open Car ,Mellotron Scratch etc.
I would also add Normal - nil recurring. Yes it's similar to Sentimental but better in my opinion.
Just for the record, Alex Lifeson from Rush plays the solo in this song
Which one? ;)
The first one
wow i never knew that thanks
It plays right at the end of the first part
Yes...yes he did. Huge Rush and Porcupine Tree fan!!
Haven't heard this track in such a long time and was smiling throughout the whole video. The song and your reaction to it made me so happy!
LEPROUS - Slave live at Rockefeller Music Hall :)
Leprous rock🤘and this song is super atmospheric and gave me goosebumps.
Yeeeees!
Came here to recommend Leprous. Slave and Contaminate Me from that show are exceptional.
Make Leprous happen on this channel🙏🏻
Two drummers and an incredible vocal performance, a must watch
Porcupine Tree is gold. Ans also Steven Wilson solo album really great. He is the god of modern progressive rock music.
Steven Wilson is a religion
@@ElLorenSES amen, brother!
Blackfield is also worth a listen
You're gonna end up in a serious PT rabbit hole now 😂 such a good band to stumble upon. I'm so jealous.
Yep agree
"Arriving Somewhere But Not Here" or "Russian on Ice" next please.
And ofcourse Heartattack in a layby, normal, sentimental, the cross and everything
@@Harry-hy1gz This one is underrated because it's short and hidden near the end of the album, but it's really a gem.
Their masterpiece and one of the greatest songs ever. Steven Wilson is a musical genius. When you say that in certain parts they sound like Zeppelin, they actually sound more like Pink Floyd in those parts. You definitely need to check out the live version of this song. It's even better live.
They start out sounding more like Radiohead to me.
I think it's because the keyboard/synth can sound similar to Led Zeppelin at the parts he brings up the comparison. I can definitely make comparisons to No Quarter in the last section where he did make the comparison again.
Tool, Pink Floyd and Radiohead = P.T (but not the rest of Steven Wilson's stuff, that's got a different vibe for the most part!)
@@AZirk1997 Yeah, that part in which he made those comments kinda sorta reminds me of No Quarter
Broooo I've been commenting for MONTHS to do a Porcupine Tree reaction!!! THANK YOU!!! This is gonna make me join your patreon, definitely. You should react to the song Arriving Somewhere But Not Here from the DVD Arriving Somewhere....
Gavin is the cleanest drummer i've ever listened.
Every fill, every ghost notes/pressed roll, every splash. Perfect. Simply perfect.
When you listen PT or Steven, it's an experience, and you stay smiling and crying at the same time.
Please watch “way out of here” live. It’s amazing. The entire anesthetize concert is crazy good.
I gotta agree with you on that 👍🏽
+1
Fucking this. This right here. The live album is literally the best live album I've personally ever heard. The quality and musicianship is impeccable.
I first heard this song in 2011, when I was 18. As the song progressed, my emotions ran the entire range of human feelings. I didn't even think it was possible for a single song to have that effect on someone.
Ever since that first listen, I couldn't stop. To say that Anesthetize hits me right in the feels, and is one of the best songs ever would somehow only begin to describe how I feel about it.
Also, the drummer Gavin Harrison is an absolute BEAST. any of his drum clinics are worth a watch
Steven Wilson- Drive Home, Steve Wilson is the guy Behind this band and behind making opeth’s albums, at least their more recognized ones
JArry THEt Drive Home has probably the best guitar solo in the past decade!
@@mhagnemae5202 Guthrie Govan is a guitar God!
@@mhagnemae5202 floyd style.
I lOOOOOVE Drive Home!
@@designbydave Guthrie's solo on that track is perfect!
This song is perfect for night driving, put this on and drive the coast road from Clontarf to Howth, you'll thank me!
Sentimental - The next song on the album is a perfect follow up to this song.
and Way Out of Here right after... All 6 tracks on that album are amazing.
@@frankov_83 absolutely
Live Version of Anesthetize is a must
Agreed. It's rare that a band can outdo their studio versions, but PT did it all the time. Poster needs to watch the Anaesthetize DVD from Tilburg.
you should check Steven Wilson - Routine, the official video
Prepare the tissues!
@@armandblake yes, so emotional, but let's not spoil nothing, and i hope he want to do the reaction
Oh, Yes!!!
Yeah, and Drive Home...
Any song off of HCE.
Glad you enjoyed it. Porcupine Tree has some real treasures in their discography.
8:43 I felt the exact same thing the first time I heard that groove
this song has maybe my favourite hook I've ever heard in any song ever..."It's all in ME, all in you" I'll never not have the biggest smile I've ever smiled on my face whenever I hear it :P (have to say though the title track is my favourite overall on the album)
We doing Porcupine tree now? Russia On Ice is a must.
Seven Wilson - Routine ❤ or The Raven That Refused to Sing
They both make me cry, sad and incredibly beautiful.
You absolutely need to react to the live version it's just mind blowing! if not then I'd highly recommend fear of a blank planet and blackest eyes by the same band!
Opeth - A fair Judgement! As for Porcupine Tree - Russia on Ice!
And, as usual, consider some Mastodon!! :)
If you like the more mellow last part of this track, you HAVE to check out the following by Porcupine Tree: Mellotron scratch, Dark matter, Lazarus, Russia on ice, and most of the Deadwing album in general.
Actually, if you ever feel like taking on a whole album, Deadwing and In Absentia are essential listening. Fear of a blank planet and The Incident too. And Steven Wilson's solo albums as well. Steven has the Midas touch, man.

this song never fails to give me goosebumps
"Russia on Ice" is another masterpiece by these guys. Steven Wilson's genius is endless (He's their frontman and primary songwriter)
The Watchmaker by Steven Wilson (the brain behind this band)
I feel fulfilled thanks to this video. Your next step is trying out Ne Obliviscaris, more specifically the song And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope.
Drew, if you liked this song so much I think you will really appreciate "Arriving Somewhere But Not Here" from Porcupine Tree. It is another long track full of arrangements and a beautiful solo by Mikael Åkerfeldt from Opeth.
Other songs I would recommend are "Ancestral" and "Luminol" from Steven Wilson and "The Czar", "The Last Baron" or "Sleeping Giant" from Mastodon.
I definitely second him doing The Last Baron, that song is incredible
I just listened to this song for the first time while watching this video, and I have to say, it has been awhile since I've felt chills like this song made me feel. Thank you so much for reacting!
If you want to experience a lucid dream, listen to Steven Wilson's "Drive Home".
Whatever you’re gonna hear from Porcupine Tree or Steven Wilson will be the best thing in your life.
Porcupine Tree! Heartattack In A Layby! You will go insane...
Porcupine Tree. Awesome. Great performance, top notch production. And man, Gavin Harrison drumming. He's in my top 5 drummers right next to TOOLs Danny Carey. Different but awesome as well.
Anesthesize is a song I had to have on repeat for days in the beginning to get all the small details. Awesome track.
Good job. Keep it up. Stay safe.
Watch this live and you'll see the madness from Galvin Harrison, the Drummer.
Welcome to the party! Also be sure to check out Steven Wilson's solo work. I think you would dig the songs Home Invasion/ Regret Number 9, Luminol, The Watch Maker, and Remainder the Black Dog.
Fear of a blank planet full album pleeeaaaase!
This is a true masterpiece!!!
Watching Porcupine Tree live is a must if only because of Colin Edwin, the happiest bass player in the world!
I'd love to see Steven Wilson's reaction on this reaction
So, finally you've got to the Porcupine Tree stage.
check out Reptile - Periphery
from their album last year, it's a true masterpiece!
Daddy Akerfeldt and Mama Wilson always bring it.
Great reaction! To experience Steven Wilson's talent and musicality in full just go for this one next :: Steven Wilson - Luminol (from the Get All You Deserve Blu-Ray & DVD) or Steven Wilson - Home Invasion /Regret #9 full HD 1080p live from [Home Invasion Live 2018 BLUERAY CD
Trains for sure, Arriving somewhere, Shesmovedon, Sentimental ,Sound of Muzak...
Also strongly recommend you to listen Vola - band from Denmark. Especially the last album. So great.
Strapping Young Lad - Love?
Caligula's Horse - Dream the Dead
Evergrey - Fear
Lamb of God - Ghost Walking (odd one out here but so good!)

Aahh yes, Steven Wilson, the most successful musician you've never heard of
Do Caligula’s Horse- Dream the Dead up next, it’s an absolute progressive masterpiece
this video makes me so happy. you're right it's a masterpiece and your absolute joy at hearing it for the first time is just lovely to watch

Delightful surprise you discovered Porcupine Tree. The live version is indeed stunning. The band are master musicians.I concur with others:" "Arriving Somewhere" is a great track. I really like "Dark Matter" and "She's Moved On" too.
First time hearing this band. I am totally blown away. God, they are in the stratosphere in talent......beautiful song. For me, I hear
Pink Floyd influence ALLOT with Tool thrown in....This is true story stoner music to me...reminds me of getting lost in Pink Floyd back in the seventies......
Like Tool, Pink Floyd and Zep.
It's my favorite Album of all time see my Icon and Steven Wilson is the Beethoven of our time all his Albus are different and even his B Stuff is better then 99% of other Artists Music. Check out Neil Recuring the Songs who did not fit on fear of a blank Planet
One of the most underated prog bands for sure!
what lol
I have posted this before but this is more relevant here:
Talking about progressive artists you could definitely try Porcupine Tree, Anathema, Gazpacho, Katatonia,The Pineapple Thief, Rush and Karnivool.
I second Anathema, they really changed me haha
@@Thrasher0411 Anathema, along with Porcupine Tree, Spock's Beard and Rush were the very first prog music that I started listening and they helped me cultivate a linking for this expansive genre.
Check out SOEN
@@brianpercival1829 I have them in my playlist. The list I gave above is just a small section of artists from my prog list.
First heard this track two years ago. Probably only the fourth or fifth PT song I'd ever heard. I'm sixty years old, so I've heard pretty much everything there is to hear. But this thing has my jaw in my lap every time I listen to it, and I listen to it A LOT. I have NEVER been so blown away by a band or a piece of music...EVER. Such a fucking joy!
Hey brilliant video well good .
You should try Porcupine tree - idiot preyer .. it’s from Signify album .. great beats you will enjoy it
Last Chance to Evacuate Planet Earth, Arriving Somewhere, Lazarus, Trains, Shallow and Deadwing are all bangers as well.
Other artist/songs you should check out is The Ocean - Devonian: Nascent and Katatonia, either the songs Last Song Before the Fade, Shifts or Hypnone
React to Drive home - Steven Wilson. Amongst the amazing composition you'll also get a taste of one of the greatest guitarists "Guthrie Govan". You'll get an idea when you hear the solo.
I've been looking for some new prog metal bands to listen to. I officially love your channel because you do just that❤️
😁😁🤟🏼🤟🏼
this is one of my favourite songs ever. i get the same uncontrollable emotion and feelings, non stop smiling and even bopping the groove of it. such a masterpiece. Cheers!
Had the widest smile throughout the whole video, the goosebumps and seeing that track hit you brought back vivid memories of seeing them for the first time ever playing this back in 2007. Goosebumps. goosebumps.
So many great parts to this song. The mid section with the heavy guitar going left, right is so mean and then the light major Rhodes sounding piano on top of it is genius. The mixing of those emotions there are what they were so good at. Epic piece of work.
Honestly everything by porcupine tree/Steven Wilson is genius imo. From here I would say the best direction to go would be “blackest eyes” or “halo”, not as proggy as this but definitely shows their skills in making kickass ‘single’-style songs
If you love this type of progressive music you'll also have to check out Riverside - Deprived, or Riverside - Left Out.
This is my favorite song, of any band.
You would also enjoy a band called Oceansize ... very much in the same progressive art rock vein.
Yes! Unfamiliar or The Charm Offensive
Oceansize are incredible!!🖤
If you enjoy Tool and Porcupine Tree or in general prog trippy stuff, you should definitely listen to Riverside ( progressive rock / progressive metal ) . Do a reaction of Riverside - Hybrid Times. I think you’ll fall in love with them.
big love from Belfast! so wholesome watching you react to this, it's such a great song!
Dig a little farther back to "Stars Die", and then "Dark Matter", both studio tho, hard to play live. Mellow, ethereal... awesome guitar solo end of D.M. Loved your reactions tho, same as mine ten years ago.😉
The right word...smooth. All his music is smooth af.
Thanks for doing Porcupine Tree, Been enjoying your videos the last couple of weeks and thought only a matter of time before you start doing Porcupine Tree. Glad you started with song. Plenty of other Porcupine Tree and Steven Wilson solo work to go threw!
I love PT so much. Amazing live. Been a fan for over 20 years.
Every track of this band is between AWESOME and OUTSTANDING... My list of tracks for you to check out after Trains:
Lightbulb Sun
Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled
The Sleep Of No Dreaming
Even Less
Drown With Me
Blackest Eyes
Strip The Soul
The Sound Of Muzak
Arriving Somewhere But Not Here
Halo
Try Hatesong by Them(Porcupine Tree) Live version. it's my most favorite Live Version of their song and for me that was their Live Peak at that moment. Absolutely Amazing.
You're in for a real treat with this band. They're one of the best for progressive. It's smoother than Tool, they will never flat out drop you on your face like Tool does but they're incredibly smooth and the singer is incredible. Sound of Musak, Arriving Somewhere but not here, Blackest Eyes, and on and on and on, they have an incredible library.
"This is euphoric" Perfect definition there 🔥
