Porcupine Tree FOABP

2007-05-28 by ceccles_ca

The CD Fear of a Blank Planet is very good.  Richard Barbieri uses
mellotron samples (M Tron) a fair bit on this CD.

My rating out of 10?

11.

Clay, Clay, Clay,

The "11" rating is reserved for Spinal Tap. Surely you know that.

Just got the DVD and was surprised at how much atmospheric stuff Barbieri does. I've really liked all PT's stuff except the earliest material when it was only Mr. Wilson. I hate it that I'm not that knocked out with Fear of a Blank Planet...all the songs seem to lack detail. I read that they performed the songs live for a while before recording. It's ironic that you can leave out some of the intricate parts in a live setting and it's not missed because of the vibe of the moment...but it doesn't work the other way around.

It's a 8.5 for me.

Jim

Clay,

No doubt!  A fantastic album and a great show in NYC last week...
