180g Double Vinyl!
Stupid Dream is the fifth studio album by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree. It was first released in March 1999. The album, along with Lightbulb Sun in 2000, represented a transitory period for the band, moving away from the band's earlier work in instrumental and psychedelic music, but before they took a more metal direction in 2002 onwards. The album takes a commercially accessible pop rock sound while still retaining heavy progressive rock influences.
This is a new vinyl edition of the 1999 studio album by Porcupine Tree, which contains PT classics Even Less, Pure Narcotic, Tinto Brass, and Stop Swimming.
Stupid Dream has been unavailable on vinyl for many years, with the previous run (released in 2006) being a limited edition of 1000 copies globally.
This Kscope edition of the 2005 master is pressed on double heavyweight (180g) vinyl. The artwork has also been revamped from the original release, with new Lasse Hoile images featured on a gatefold package with printed inner sleeves designed by Carl Glover.
"An impressive, fully formed whole." -Record Collector
"Wilson as a songwriter and singer both sounds recharged and more ambitious, while the group collectively pours it on. The loud passages feel truly sky-smashing, the calmer ones perfectly close, and the overall sense of build and drama -- "A Smart Kid" is a fine example -- spot-on." -Ned Raggett, allmusic.com
