Justin Case Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I saw his band once...they struck me as Rush (very, very) lite. I may catch shit here for saying it around here, but that's all it is at it's best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I tried HARD to get into his output. I recognize it's good, but get bored while listening to it. I guess his vocals are too dull for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 at my eyes and at my ears he simply doesn't seem the Rock New Messiah that he's trying to be I love this post. Fans speak of him like he is some sort of saviour for modern music. I think his music is perfect for curing insomnia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bathory Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 he's pretty good, I do agree that his fans act like he's groundbreaking when he seems to just be playing "old school" prog. I'll take just about any 70s prog over his stuff but I do like that he raises awareness for prog rock and that sort of thing. doesn't seem to be working though, he's got a sizeable fanbase and it seems like a good chunk of it has never heard an album released before images and words.

Jaminbenb Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 His solo stuff is pretty good, but I like his Porcupine Tree stuff better.... Kind of a modern day Pink Floyd-ish kind of output. (good to turn out the lights, put on some candles, and fire one up)Â I have tickets to go see him this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I don't love absolutely everything I've heard, but about 75% of it is great. Just my opinion. Saviour of modern music? No...I'd never place that label on anyone. That's a tool of a music journalist doing his or her best to grab headlines. But I do enjoy a whole boatload of his music, yeah. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 He's probably produced a greater volume of good music than most other bands I love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
