They're all good. Even the Incident has it's moments. Difficult to choose one.

Each album has something enjoyable but I'll go with The Sky Moves Sideways for its consistency in dreamlike soundscapes and ever growing through every listen.

This is tough.....Top to bottom the catalog is uber strong. Came down to Signify and Fear Of A Blank Planet. Chose the latter and partly because of the awesome title and homage to Public Enemy.

I felt people were beginning to forget about them myself, which is why I made the poll. If prog's not dead, PT's not dead. What did you vote for?
There is a lot of variation in choices here. I would have thought the Sky Moves Sideways would have more votes though. I don't mind, my favourite's winning! Tongue

Deadwing and In Absentia, voted Deadwing, followed by their earlier stuff. I don't really get the love for Fear; after the awesome Deadwing and In Absentia for me it was a massive disappointment.

I can't believe The Incident has no votes so far... Wish I could change mine because this masterpiece shouldn't go voteless!

Signify for me, though I admit I like the rest almost as much.

You're right - I shouldn't have voted for Fear, it doesn't exactly need help.

Yes they are. Recordings just after Lightbulb Sun and Metanoia recorded around Signify, Of course we could have Tarquin's Sea Weed Far and Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape as well....

well Recordings is a compilation of b-sides, alt-versions to some songs. 

Metanoia is a studio album from 1998. 
On PA it's listed under Singles/EPs/Fan Club/Promo, released in 2001, but it's got 56 minutes ConfusedLOL

I voted for In Absentia , I think it was my first porcupine tree album and it made a strong impression.

I never realized this but I consider all PT albums from Signify to The Incident to be absolutely equal. That's 7 straight albums. I don't think that I can say that about any other prog artist. Shocked
