LIGHTBULB SUN

I love Porcupine Tree. I love the way it makes you feel with that guitar. Wilson is in my opinion is one of the best composers of our time period. But I have problems digesting this offering. It has many wonderful moments like the explosion of "Shesmovedon" to the inner feelings of the lyrics, but let me tell you that there are many different songs here that lack direction or union with the rest. And in my opinion the downing lyrics of "Russia on Ice" deserves to be side by side with "Nobody Loves me" from Lyle Lovett. Soooo depressing. Good record but not good enough from a progressive point of view
