Hey X-1!!!

Guess what rhymes with FOOL???

GHOUL!!!

Tobias Rules!!!

Wilson is old news and a bore!!

I don't get it Earl, does this mean you feel like you have to put all your PT and Wilson albums in storage to make room for your Ghost albums? If not I don't understand what you mean? Can you not listen to both of these guys?

he's just messing with the super-serious porcupine butthole lovers

You mean the ones who want Wilson to get back to Porcupine Tree and dump the solo career?

I like his music and all, but I also find humor in poking fun at the dude and all the devout SW fans who think he can never do wrong and/or can't take a joke when it's appropriate.

SW stands for STAR WARS right?  Steven Wilson is the biggest dork on this Blank Planet.

He needs to "GET A HAIR CUT AND GET A REAL JOB!"

Earl... are you kidding?

Hey Silly Sue!  I knew this thread would draw you out!
No I'm serious!
As much as I love Steven Wilson and all that he has done it's time to pass the torch!

Wilson is boring.  Tiring.  Bland.  Trivial.

He blew his wad with PT.  Nothing can touch that material.  Sorry!!!!!

Time to move on!!!!

FORGE THE FUTURE BABY!

Of course, you know I totally disagree, Earl.

Besides, I saw Ghost open on the Heritage/Hunter tour, and I thought they were too gimmicky with too little substance. I just thought it was kind of juvenile.  If I want some Skeletor-looking priest singing to me about doom and gloom, I'll go to church. And, his robed minions had on jeans and sensible shoes under their robes. It would have been more convincing if they were, like, naked under there and barefoot, or wearing Jesus sandals. But, that said, I haven't sat down and listened to any of their music. That was only my first impression of them.

Steven Wilson.......Easy.  Ghost from what i've heard is enjoyable but the lyrics and schtick seems like it could wear quick.

Wilson is a master.

I'm going to either get a smack or my tail pulled, but I've never heard of Tobias Forge.

Think of him as Casper, the Friendly Ghost.

I have actually never heard a note of Ghost, either, so I can't make any judgement.

I've only listened to Ghost while I've listened to all of SW/PT, so my judgement may be unfair... But even comparing any given two SW/PT albums to the two Ghost albums, I find SW/PT to be superior.

This is because Ghost adheres to a certain style while Steven Wilson explores, and, while doing so, does a fine job at it most of the time

I'll take Grace for Drowning & Fear of a Blank Planet over Infestissumam & Meliora
I'll also take Up the Downstair & Stupid Dream over Infestissumam & Meliora
I might not take On the Sunday of Life... & Hand. Cannot. Erase. over Infestissumam & Meliora
...But I think I've made my point.

I've listened to their new album almost three times straight thru. I barely remember any of it.

The Raven is better than any PT album aside from In Absentia IMO.

Ghost suck.

All the hype they get makes me even prouder to be a Bon Jovi fan.

Heck, I would take Backstreet Boys or even a nature sounds CD over Ghost.

Ghost are just a bland retread of greater sounds from a bygone era.

And they took an underrated ABBA song and made it something grotesque.

Porcupine Tree? Steve Wilson?

A man of great taste, who sounds different every time I try a new album. Not a single marketing gimmick or trite lyric in sight!

Sorry...Ghost fans have their opinion, but my goodness I HATE THAT BAND SO MUCH! And I have for years now.

Ick.

Vocals.

Satanic edged lyrics (believe me a few other favourite bands of mine have lost my favour due to this).

I hate the covers they do.

I just would rather hurl myself into a bath of acid and towel myself down afterwards with steel wall.
