Up The Downstair? Hey Wilderness...I'm going through FOABP first like you suggested. Some of his vox style and their ambient side reminds me a little of Radiohead that's all. Obviously theres much more to them. I'll try and get to that other album after this hopefully. Which tracks off this album really do it for you? I had no idea they've been going that long either!!

Gompers Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Has anyone listened to "Time Flies" yet? I was able to check it out. If SW doesn't throw out a thanks to Pink Floyd, I will not be happy. It has very distinct moments hearkening of "Dogs" and "Sheep". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea they've been going that long either!! yeah i guess youre right.....but the Radiohead influence isnt as clear on FOABP as the early stuff. the best tracks are: 1. Anesthetize 2. Sentimental 3. Way Out Of Here those do it for me on that album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that price, I expect Steven Wilson himself, dressed in a delivery man uniform, at my door to hand it to me in person. Seriously, is that too much to ask?

At one of the listening sessions (can't remember which) he did say that Time Flies was a nod to Pink Floyd. I'm holding out on that 106$ package, if I'm going to spend that much on the album I'm going to get the nice vinyl version instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
