STUPID DREAM

Probably not very Stupid Dream, but this album is a step back for Porcupine Tree. Probably the popiest album by the band. There is little pause between the previous and this release and everything here is so vocal-oriented and not enough progressive. Piano Lessons is standing out as the leading song of the album and probably if the band have been more commercial, it could be big radio and MTV hit. It is sounding like that kind of music. Pleasant song! Everything on the album is darker, depressing and slow-constructed. Bass is strongly underlined! One of my not so favourite Porcupine Tree's albums, but not hated, too (there is only one I hate - The Sky Moves Sideways). Recommended for artists and people with artistic inclinations!
