They certainly influenced many bands over the years since we all know quite a few that 'sound like Genesis'....including the above mentioned Marillion.
 
btw ...just as an FYI:
PT has 5 four star albums and many 3 star ones...close to 4 stars
Marillion has 4 four star albums and about the same number of highly rated 3 star albums.
 
Of course this is based on ratings from members here and what do they know about prog rock anyway.

There is no rule that states you cannot be influenced by a band that came later. Marillion have changed over the years. I guess he is referring to Marbles?

PT suck an enormous amount of arse

I'm not a great fan of Porcupine Tree, but I would never say they 'suck'. Grow up! Porcupine Tree members are all accomplished musicians.

If I don't like them I say they suck, simple as that.

Why can't you just say you don't like them? Saying something 'sucks' to me means that they're completely abysmal, which obviously isn't true at all.

But to me, you're putting down the band in an unfair way and somehow trying to elevate yourself in the process, which is something an elementary school kid would do.

Just like before LOL

The second someone calls you out, the tone of your posts gets so defensive and innocent. Stop acting like an a****le and just post your opinion.
