xlrogue6, thanks for the insight. The gist of this thread is to not promote Pandora, nor to suggest anyone subscribe to it. For me, Pandora has been a great avenue to experience music I otherwise would have missed.

Got 2 Snarky Puppy CD's for Christmas. The DVD that came with Ground Up is really cool. These guys are obviously having a ton of fun.

Snarky Puppy is one of my favorite bands now & I would have never heard of them if it weren't for Stephen's post on this thread! I downloaded Ground Up from iTunes, but may have to buy a store copy if it comes with a DVD!

I have been listening to Steven's new album, The Raven That Refused to Sing (and other stories). It is quite impressive and leads me to believe that Porcupine Tree will not be performing together for a while. This album is just awesome. Nick Beggs' bass playing is dirty good. His tones remind me of Chris Squire and early Geddy Lee. The folks in his new band are all sick players.

The Raven That Refused to Sing...just beautiful

The Watchmaker...great showpiece that just builds. The bass playing and vocals are superb.

Couldn't agree more. Steven Wilson doesn't get enough attention in the states. I also enjoy his collaboration Michael Aekerfeld .

On another note, amongst us prog fans, I just picked up Riverside' s newest Shrine Of Generation Slaves. Spectacular. Check out Escalator Shrineon YouTube ...12+ min of bliss!

Karl; I just listened to Escalator Shrine; that was great!

I also watched this live piece from them, Second Life Syndrome.

Dave, check out The Curtain Falls, and The Same River by Riverside, my favorites!

Thats a great track Dave. I love the old school vibe in the middle section. They cover such a wide range of music. The lead singers (Mariuz Duda) solo project Lunatic Soul is also good listening, progressive, but different from Riverside.

Watched the live versions of The Curtain Falls and The Same River; very nice! Thanks; that made for an enjoyable evening of listening!
