    Ode ''Porcupine Tree'' u neke ''gay/hipster/bas sam moderan'' vode, sto ne bi bilo lose samo po sebi, da je muzika dobra, a ne ljigavi prepotentni pop/rock. Uzasno precenjen bend.

  • moram da okacim ovo, obavezno pogledajte:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7L60KrhBKA   i jos jednom, muzika spaja svet

  • Blasfemija je videti onako patetican video na youtube-u. Ovaj bend je postao jako dosadan, a mogli su bili odlican prog/psychodelic rock band, steta.   Sve u svemu, dosadna muzika, kvazi intelige

Allmusic review Incidenta, 3.5/5

 

"Over the years, trying to determine what is true "prog rock" and what is not has become an increasingly tricky proposition. In the early '70s, it was easy -- any band that performed "suites" that extended across entire album sides and dressed in capes and/or cloaks was a dead giveaway. However, when the early '80s rolled around, most former prog rockers trimmed out the fat from their compositions (and exchanged their medieval wear and kimonos for what looked like sports coats). Ever since, there have been bands that have aligned themselves to either of the aforementioned prog rock approaches. But along came Porcupine Tree, who somehow have found a way to incorporate both into their 2009 effort, The Incident. Set up similarly to Rush's 1978 classic, Hemispheres, The Incident is comprised of a single long song -- the title track -- that features many different movements (which would have taken up the entire side one back in the good ol' days of vinyl), as well as a handful of shorter compositions that close the album. The aforementioned title track will certainly be the talk of the album, as it manages to incorporate bombast and melody (the sixth movement, which shares the album's title), rock ("Octane Twisted"), Yes' folky moments ("The Seance"), and Tool-like grooves ("Circle of Manias"), before it all gently floats away on a cloud of fairy dust ("I Drive the Hearse"). That said, unlike early proggers who favored meandering instrumental doodling over succinct songwriting, Porcupine Tree always favor the importance of memorable songs over flashy solos, which certainly makes the group one of the top modern-day prog rock bands.

Flicker : This was the only song that I (accidentally) got to hear during the playback session up in NY in June, and frankly I was chatting with PT's manager at the time it was playing and hardly paid any attention to it, hard to figure how I missed it though as Flicker is awesome !!!! A super cool, laid back, atmospheric track with Rich's vibey/late night synths standing right out front, and a very tasteful SW solo bookending a lovely LBS-style verse/chorus arrangement. This one reminds me easily of a song that would have fit very nicely on LBS as it has equal parts Disappear and Buying New Soul goodness in it. Oh yeah almost forgot, LOT's of lovely multipart da da da harmony vocals from SW. The reviewer above nailed this one cold, it might well be one of the best tracks on the entire album period !

 

Bonnie the Cat is a definitely an unusual song in that it is incredibly "all over the place" from a stylistic point of view, yet still very much a linear composition if that makes any sense ?!?!? It starts off all ethereal and ambient-like, before SW starts to add in whispered claustrophobic vocals that sound very menacing at times. There is a very propulsive groove laid down by Gav and Colin and this thing just builds into a monstrous beast by the middle of the song. Richard gets to "air out" an assload of bizarre electronic noise at this point and then the track just blows wide open into a full blown Meshuggah (w/ a Middle Eastern vibe I might add) homage !!! The riffs during this section may well be the heaviest the band has ever created, and frankly this track will just crush skulls in the front few rows of gigs if played live !!! Yes, it's that heavy !

 

Oh, and BtC is also the only (that I can readily tell) track from the bonus disc of material featured on the My Space medley !

 

Black Dhalia is a mellow swooning ballad that is predominantly keyboard driven. SW's vocals are fairly heavily treated and have a very distinct Stupid Dream quality to them, nice mellow understated guitar solo by SW, and an ethereal fade out... Dreamy and sweet in a melancholic sort of way, but it didn't knock me out upon a few listens... Almost feels too short in a weird way. Might be a grower though...

 

Remember Me Lover starts out very spartan, SW and his guitar and then kicks in around the 2 min. mark, and the chorus just sucks you in from the start. While the reviewer above is correct that SW's vox are kinda submerged in the mix and treated fairly heavily, I can still hear what he is saying and these lyrics almost sound personal. At the 3 min mark it gets all groovy and heavy for about a minute and then subsides back into the chilled vibe that it started out with for the verse and then heads back to a more dramatic return of the chorus. Around the 6:15 mark this song starts to get very heavy and intense rhythmically as it hurtles toward the finish. This is a very unique track for SW and PT as it doesn't sound like anything they have specifically done before, but yet as the reviewer above noted there are notions of the spartan melancholy of No Man juxtaposed with some angular and extremely heavy riffage. Kind of a collision of extremes in many ways. Excellent track !

 

So there ya have it, some additional useless opinions on the material that wasn't aired in the listening sessions to ponder and brood over

 

 

 

 

Cini se da ce ovaj drugi disk da pokida na vrlo poseban nacin.

ma naravno, ali na proslom albumu nisu imali nista tipa Lazarus, Blackest Eyes i tako tih hitova... Nekako mi izgleda da ih nece biti ni sad.

Koloko god da je dobar trip Insurgentes/Incident ipak mi malo nedostaje njihovih singlova :(

Al jbg uvek mogu da pustim In Absentia/Deadwing :)
