1999 Classic On Double LP!
Remixed & Remastered By Steven Wilson In2005!
Stupid Dream was the fifth studio album by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree. First released in March 1999 the album contains Porcupine Tree classics including "Even Less," "Pure Narcotic," "Tinto Brass," and "Stop Swimming" and is one of the essential albums in the band's catalog. Porcupine Tree released their last studio album, The Incident, in 2009, marking another step forward in the incredible journey of the band that began as a solo studio project created by Steven Wilson in the late eighties to a multi-Grammy-nominated act and one of the world's most revered live bands, selling out arenas across the globe and wowing fans with their incredible performances.
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.
An impressive, fully formed whole.
