Which studio album from the early to mid era by Porcupine Tree do you prefer? These have to be the original versions. Any remastered versions with Gavin Harrison don't count. So if you can't vote for the original versions then please don't vote.

Stupid Dream... it has 2 of the best songs Wilson has ever written- Even Less and Don't Hate Me...though all of those are solid albums....especially Lightbulb ,Signify ,and Sky...

By the way, the main reason I didn't include In Absentia is because although it's not one of their very last albums it seems to be the introduction of metal elements and as such I lump it in with the last phase of their career. Also, it was the first with Gavin Harrsion on drums and marked a new era for the band. Finally, it seems it would easily get the most votes anyway and I didn't want one album to have such an unfair advantage over the others.

Sorry, that's cheating. It has to be the original. Otherwise you are missing the point of this poll.

Stupid Dream with the 5.1 mix that transports you to another place.

The original mix also shines.

Lightbulb sun. The tree had shorter quills back then.

Coma Divine for me... it was actually the first album I got from them, and still my favourite one... though strangely enough I have only gotten his studio albums with Gavin Harrison.
