Average Rating: 
Rating:  - The 1st of many
This was my first PT disc. I bought it based on singles I heard on Pandora. I was very impressed and now own 5 additional PT discs. I feel this is the direction that Yes may have gone in had they not burnt out and sold out in the 80's. I continue to be a fan of classic Yes and am now a fan of this wonderful band. I hope they keep producing music that appeals to their artistic sensibilities and aviod the commercialization trap that so many bands seem to fall into once they become successful.
Rating:  - New Progressive...

This album has a great flow and some powerful songs. I wish that taped commentary between songs was not there, they should have just allowed the flow. This album is good quality work.

It is true that they contain some very radio friendly songs, but they also contain some of their heavier material as well, perhaps not making those as good of a place to start for some. Don't get me wrong, I love those cds and those are some of my favorites (last month, it was ... Read More
Rating: - Glad I found out this band and this compilation
I learned about Porcupine Tree just recently. I was given a copy of In Absentia by on of my brothers and I just can not get enough of them. I started to want to learn more about the band and decided to give this compilationa try.
Now that I own other PT releases I find this double CD and excecelent starting point summarizing early material from Steve Wilson's Porcupine Tree early work. The song selection is adecuate as well as the booklet. I say this as not only are they satisfying but ... Read More
