Let's goooo my G
First you are one of the few reaction videos channel that i still actually continue to follow. You must be doing something right. Second Trains is good but less "progressive" shall we say. You really cant go wrong with these guys. Third i have five words for you: Arriving. Somewhere. But. Not. Here.
Can't wait! Also... Deadhead, RAH, Devin Townsend!
Thank you for doing the live version Drew. Trains is a splendid choice. Whichever you pick works. All of PT's songs are gems. Though I was about to suggest 'Arriving Somewhere But Not Here'. Maybe you can do it after Trains.
Ooooh, looking forward to it. Take the live version, you gotta have a laugh towards the middle XD

The best part of this performance is the bassist with the big goofy smile on his face while Steven sings about depressing stuff. It's great 10/10.
Him and the keyboardist.
Man, Anesthetize is the anthem of prog really.
For modern prog I agree, but among old school it’s between songs by Yes, King Crimson, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Jethro Tull, Genesis or Pink Floyd among others.
Old prog: my vote goes to Xanadu (Rush) or Echoes (Pink Floyd)
8:40
That hi-hat groove that Gavin plays is just... god damn.
My head bobs subconsciously.
In my opinion almost every song by Porcupine Tree sounded even better live.. That's a very rare thing, PT was such an amazing band!
100% agree
ARRIVING SOMEWHERE BUT NOT HERE.
Thank us later. :>
This song will blow your mind too. It's another journey away from everything.
Drew honestly treat yourself to something even more special.....
And again it has GOT to be live!
Wow I gotta agree with this one. You'll love it dude
Gavin Harrison is such a great drummer, one of the greats. Not taking away from everyone else though, a masterful live performance.
The man behind the man is Steven Wilson, you should check out Drive Home to understand what he’s capable off
Yes! The video clip though!
Routine
You gotta be prepared for them feels tho
He is an absolutely exceptional musician
Mister Sister Fister no...he is an exceptional writer and composer. He has the best musicians in the world playing for him!!!
Gavin's fill at 10:44 is superb, a moment of drumming wizardry in itself, and I love how right after it Richard Barbieri glances over with admiration, enjoying his own bandmate's performance
This really is a masterpiece! The person in charge of the sound at this show deserves a raise...just incredible!!
I don't think someone making $40+ an hour deserves a cent more. We should be humble and be content with being alive and being able to cover all our needs. I know it's just a comment but there's people who barely eat once a day an have tougher jobs, so the 'sound guy' is doing very good already, I promise, thanks for worrying about him.
@@soullessSiIence Although you can probably say for sure the sound guy of Steven Wilson is doing very good, A friend of mine actually is a struggling sound guy. Sound guy's don't have an easy life man. Don't compare everything to dying kids.
Lol the person who mixed and set up the recordings is... Steven Wilson himself.
I guess Steven Wilson needs to give himself a raise haha
Simon B. I was thinking that it might've been him but I wasn't sure. Impressive!!
Arriving Somewhere But Not Here
The Start of Something Beautiful
Trains
The Sound of Muzak
Maybe something from those tracks to start? There are so many good tracks by PT
I'd say start with Arriving Somewhere But Not Here
Or Stars Die.
Blackest Eyes, Russia on Ice are excellent too
Fear of A Blank Planet and Drown With Me (live) are my 2 favourite PT songs.
@@loicdelcourte9423 yes they are
@@StarsDie88 yes!
Porcupine Tree are straight up one of the greatest bands of all time. I love Steven Wilson’s solo career but PT was special. I’ve got a nickname for this song: ‘Gavin = God’
You reacted to Tool and now you started reacting to Gojira Opeth and Porcupine Tree...My all time favourite bands. You are awesome man! Arriving Somewhere but not here or Blackest Eyes should be next
You my friend have fantastic taste in music. Exactly my thoughts.
All of the above plus Pain of Salvation, Haken and Leprous
That live blu-ray is a must, every song! Steven Wilson is a genius.
Steven Wilson is a genius. I remember when I first realized maybe my favorite band wasn't Tool... Check out his solo work and GO TO ONE OF HIS SHOWS!
Staniel Wilsenlöw I seen To The Bone Tour Tampa YBOR USA.2018. Fantastic Show!!!🤘
Seen him six times now, and every show is an experience. Tissues are always a must, too, thanks to Routine, Raven, and now Refuge. Haven’t been to a show yet I haven’t cried at.
No matter how many times I've heard it, that fill at 10:45 never fails to wreck me. Gavin is such a beast.
Anesthetize is probably one of the best Progressive rock songs created in the past 20-25 years (arguably in totality depending on who you ask), and Steven Wilson has been the King of progressive rock since In Absentia came out back in 2001. I was lucky enough to see this band live back in 2010 right before they stopped touring, and I've also had the pleasure of meeting Gavin Harrison back in December and he was one of the nicest guys I've ever met. Keep up listening to their music, as well as Steven Wilson's solo work (The Raven and HCE are must listens!)
in absentia wasn't even progressive rock. He had been doing prog rock for over a decade and took a break in the 2000s from prog rock. Signify, up the downstairs, delerium years, sky moves sideways are his best prog rock works.
@@chandreshgoyal6070 - How is In Absentia not progressive rock? Blackest Eyes, Creator Has a Mastertape, Prodigal, Sound of Muzak, Strip the Soul? All great prog-rock tracks. And Deadwing, Fear of a Blank Planet, and The Incident are all within the 2000's and are all Prog-Rock/Metal records.
@@LesPaulManiac they are too short of songs to be called prog Rock man. Definitely, deadwing had a few wonders, fear of a blank planet could be his revival as a prog Rock artist but the period in absentia was more of an experimental piece. Can't really fit that into prog Rock
@@chandreshgoyal6070 - Length of a track has absolutely nothing to do with how 'proggy' it is. There are plenty of songs that are under 4 minutes that can be considered progressive rock. Just like there are songs over 6 minutes that wouldn't necessarily fit into that category as well. In Absentia is a prog-rock album just as much as Signify or Stupid Dream.
React to Arriving Somewhere But Not Here , by Porcupine Tree
Agreed. It's on the same level as Anesthetize and you should look at the live version again. The production quality and full out jam are 2nd to none!
Definitely! here's a link for the live version
czcams.com/video/W3lsqUqGTzM/video.html
One of the best creations ever
Studio and Live version. To me the best live version is the Octane Twisted, but we only have that in audio =(
Yes live version is amazing too
Leprous - Slave (Live at the Rockefeller hall)
Leprous - Slave (Live at Rockefeller Music Hall)
I’ll keep suggesting it til you watch it. lol Discovered these guys (and this particular live song) on my Devin Townsend station and they blew my mind. I immediately dove into their discography. I’m an old school PT fan, but you gotta check these guys out. Every song is good. Over the last week, they’ve joined my favorites right up there with Tool, Opeth and PT. That never happens. Trying to make it vague enough so it’s surprising but enticing enough for you to check it out. You’re not gonna get a bunch of likes on this comment so you just gotta trust me. I’m a proghead and I had no idea who they were either. A little ashamed to admit it. Lol
This x1000, I recently discovered Leprous from this exact live performance from the channel Beth Roars and I was blown away!
Right there with you, that entire concert is so good and everyone's so on point. I started listening to them last year and I'm into the same bands you named, they quickly became one of my favorites in prog! They have a way to make all their songs very proggy and interesting instrumentally, then Einar just elevates them with his vocals every time.
Yep, DO it. Dive in Leprous like you did with Gojira. Especially if you like impressive clean vocals. Leprous I'd put smack dab in the middle of porcupine tree and Gojira. You've got heavier tunes and gnarly rhythm guitar but also super atmospheric and strange soundscapes.
YES, but maybe the album version first? Leprous is awesome!
Yeees please!!
That fill at 10:45. My god.
Ikr, the live version adds so much
Was just about to say the same. Love how Richard looks over with a little smile recognizing Gavins awesomeness.
@@blackesteyes1133 that's one of my favourite moments. Gavin goes unreal on some fills, and usually stoic Richard can't help but grin.
I just love seeing someone share my enthusiasm for PT
Welcome to the Steven Wilson rabbit hole! See you on the otherside! : Trains, arriving somewhere but not here, deform to form a star, blackest eyes, mellotron scratch, and then...you have to get to S. Wilson solo albums...there are phenomenal.
i agree 100% on what you said regarding hearing the studio version first. For me, it usually makes me enjoy the live performance even better as well.
Yeah, I feel like you need to know the structure of the song to really appreciate the live version. But in this case, I was hooked off the live version and while there are parts of the studio version I love, I feel like it is a bit lamely produced compared to here
I HIGHLY recommend checking out some of Steven Wilson's solo work. Some essential SW songs would be:
- 3 Years Older
- Routine
- The Raven That Refused to Sing
- Luminol
- To the Bone
- Refuge
- My Book of Regrets
- Ancestral
Home Invasion/Regret
Ancestraaaaaaaaaaaaal
czcams.com/video/KYa2cGIjvsw/video.html
A smart kid by Steven Wilson
Russia on Ice
Drive home
The drummer......next level!
The live performance of Hatesong is also incredible
Agreed!
As a live performance of performing, I would say it is the best band performance ever. The way they take their moments and free jam is a masterpiece.
Colin Edwin is the most bass playerish looking bass player who ever based 🤘🏻🔥
They are one of the most underated band from 90/00.
I am even kind of sad to know them since 2012, when they stopped.
Gavin Harrison is so tight on the drum,without douing too much for noting.
I also relly like what Steven Wilson did, producing & contributing backing vocals, guitar and keyboards for Opeth on the albums Blackwater Park, Deliverance, and Damnation. Mostly my 3 Opeth favorites.
He also handled mixing, production and backing vocals for Heritage and Pale Communion.
Gavin is one of the most underrated drummers in the world, most people have never heard of him but when you look at the list of artists he's played with: King Crimson, Iggy Pop, Porcupine Tree, OSI, and now The Pineapple Thief... I mean Neil Peart called him one of the greats!
One of the best Live Bands ever. Im Super happy that you are checking them out now. Its like my overall favorite Band in the world
Some more bands to check out:
Soen - Has Opeth's old drummer, kinda like Tool.
Riverside - Polish band, cross between Opeth & Porcupine Tree
Anciients - Canadian band, cross between Mastodon & heavy Opeth
Haken - best band in the world whose name rhymes with bacon...sort of Dream Theater-meets-djent
Agreed, Haken especially are amazing Falling back to earth is a Track you should check out. Also Riverside and the other band you mention are amazing, I'd add Leprous and Caligula's Horse to the list🤟 I'll have to check out some Anciients myself sopwithsnoopy, never heard of them. Love discovering new music😀
Soen's first 2 albums >>> Tool's newest
any Haken >>> DT's last 2 albums
I agree, react to SOEN.
listen to...the final thing in my mind by pineapple thief.....if you havent yet...+ other great song as well
@@BigNeilbug Haken are like Dream Theater meets Gentle Giant, but much closer to the musical standards of the latter.
For me this song is one of the best 3 song made in the 21th century. One time i was pretty high and i started this song hella loud than layed down to the bed and finally put all the lights off. One sec and i was already slipped in another dimension fast as a 6 liter V12.
Sound of muzak snd blackest eyes are amazing. But dear of the blank planet from the same concert is one of the best live performances I have ever heard.
Yea I was extremely lucky and saw P.T. In a small venue back in 2007 they were the real deal ...”Arriving somewhere but not here”. “Blackest Eyes” “fear of a blank planet”
You should look into early PT too.
Dark Matter, Russia on Ice, The Sky Moves Sideways, Always Never, Waiting, Don't Hate Me
All incredible songs.
Waiting. Makes me melt. Perfection!
Even less also
I want to thank you Drew for introducing me to this band with your reaction to the studio version of this song. I've been always in to metal but had never even heard of this band before.
Since your review I've heard two of their full discographies, Fear of a Blank and Signify; and am in mid-way of the third 'In Absentia'. That's how much I've started to love this band in just this past one week since your reaction dropped.
That's exactly what I love about reaction channels. Once again, thank you so much!
This live recording is my go-to PT album. It's just SO good. I would give a great deal of money to be able go back in time and attend this show.
You have discovered the brilliance of Steven Wilson. You must buy his albums since leaving Porcupine Tree they are wonderful. I also like his work in Blackfield. If Covid-19 allows he is in tour this year with a new album out early 2021 I have heard.
Colin Edwin (on bass) always has that grin on his face. I happened to catch his eyes during a show once and we had a staring contest. I think.
Oyea you did the live. I love you xD thanks a lot for listening, really!
Drive Home, Luminol, The Watchmaker, and most of all Arriving Somewhere, Fear of a Blank Planet, and Start of Something beautiful are all great recs to see more from Steven Wilson. All live btw, Steven Wilson is a live musician allthough his studio production is legendary too.
PT musts -
Blackest eyes (very TOOL like)
Lips of Ashes
Sound of Muzak
Deadwing
Arriving Somewhere but not here
The Start of Something Beautiful
Russia on Ice
Buying new soul, Sentimental, Even Less
I would say blackest eyes is more like Opeth, which makes sense as Mikael Åkerfeldt gave Steven Wilson the main riff as a birthday present
Your natural expressions make me listen to a 17 minutes song all over again even though i have listened to it for like thousands times already.
I'd request 2 songs for your reaction.
1. Porcupine Tree- What Happens now Live
2. Opeth- Hessian Peel
Abhishek Chaubey yes to What Happens Now Live. That solo at the end is badass!
This is my favorite live video ever. Insanely good.
Richard Barbieri (keyboard) smiles everytime when Gavin Harrison shreds his drums.
Funny fact about PT: they never officially disbanded but haven't released anything since 2009. So they sorta following same steps as Tool.
John Wesley (guitar to the left) is not actual band member but session musician who only performs live with PT because pretty much all their songs require two guitars. The only exception happend in 2009 at their last album tour when Steven did all parts on stage without John. Check out their song "Time Flies" or "The Blind House" from last album "The Incident".
But most famous is " Arriving Somewhere but not Here".
I so wish they recorded some new stuff but I think Steven is far too preoccupied with the success of his solo work. That ship has sailed, sadly.
I'm pretty sure Wesley did some studio work with them, but still he was never an official band member, which is too bad because his contribution to PT is immeasurable.
@@MaciejuCz he never gave solid NO or YES on question regarding reunion so it is up in the air and like perpetuum mobile will probably never be resolved.
Masterpiece
"Arriving Somewhere but not here", Live, definitely live. You will not miss any deatail on it. It is just fantastic.
The experience of seeing them perform this live in Buffalo NY during their last US tour was incredible. Saw them again at their very final US show at Radio City the same year, but the energy in that small Buffalo venue while they hammered Anesthetize was unforgettable.
I was just happy seeing you through the reaction cause that's my own reaction to this song even though i've known it for 10 years. Loved it
I was in the audience at The Forum in London, 2007. It was magical.
so cool you enjoy this tune. i had the same reaction. now it's one of my faves of all time...
I discovered this band some years ago and been following the solo project from Steven Wilson since there. I was able to see Steven live and I can honestly say that it was the BEST show I ever seen in my entire life. Music, atmosphere, lights, every aspect of the show just blends together perfectly. If these guys comes together at some point I'm gonna travel to whatever part of the world they are without thinking it twice (already saved money just in case :) ).
Steven Wilson home invasion/regret #9. Godlike track
Drew’s channel was how I discovered porcupine tree. I saw his reaction to trains, which came up as recommended after I was listening to a Steven Wilson remaster of close to the edge.
Superb reaction.... and I've watched a lot because I can't get enough of this track... Now I need to go and find out that else you've done of theres don;t I... Keep on Rocking.
Talking about great live performance. I think it’s time you check out “Ne Obliviscaris”.
Sound of muzak, Blackest eyes, Fear of a blank planet, Open car, Strip the soul. Some of my favorite Porcupine Tree songs. Would love to see a reaction to them. Also we need more Devin Townsend reactions. ;)
Porcupine Tree is a great band! Glad you are having a good journey through these bands! Check out Japanese metal band Maximum the Hormone!
Goosebumps. One of those songs played so well live that you just laugh while listening to it. Magical.
Amazing reaction... just as always! You should check out some Muse... won't be disappointed. Knights of Cydonia, Plug in Baby, Uprising, Hysteria, Absolution, Super Massive Black hole, Stockholm Syndrone... Pretty much anything by them. Phenominal Live perfonces!
Dude this whole concert on Blu-ray is absolutely fantastic!!
Great reaction video! This band is on a new level. Wish they were still together. I had 1 chance to see them years ago but I wasn't that into them. My taste in music has changed so much over the years. So bummed I didn't go to see them! They are definitely masters of their craft!
PT were amazing live, saw them 8 times to make sure :P. Have the bluray of this gig and it's fucking incredible, the version of Half Light on there is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard :)
Steven Wilson mixed the recording of this live performance himself lol
My boyfriend and I saw Steven Wilson live in November 2018. His shows are transcendent in how amazing they sound. I've never experienced anything like it (even after seeing Roger Waters twice, Iron Maiden, Katatonia, etc). He knows how to put on an unforgettable show. Just mind blowing.
This live DVD is one for the record books. Saw them in Memphis many moons ago, and yes, they sound exactly like this.
In the studio version, the first guitar solo was recorded by Alex Lifeson from Rush!
I’ll just say I was reallly lucky to have seen PT live 3 times (2005; 2006; 2007), and Steven Wilson once (2015) with my wife...all shows in NYC. Also, Steven’s other project Blackfield in 2007 at Maxwell’s in NJ. For sure some of the best live shows you could ever see. Also, props to John Wesley on the backing vocals here, and playing the main guitar solo live (the one and only Alex Lifeson guested on the album version).
man this guy is watching and listening to all my favorite shit. wish I could go back to my first time.
Gavin Harrison is amazing. I saw him in a King Crimson's Concert in Chile 7 months ago.
I was one of the lucky ones that followed PT/ Steven Wilson pretty much from the start. Seen them live loads and definitely the best live performance i’ve ever seen. All great musicians. Steven Wilson is one of a kind.

Really nice looking your reaction to a live performance that i love so much, this is a masterpiece and glad you liked it. Keep it up, love from Uruguay!
I saw Steven at Cardiff, and he absolutely blew my socks off. The mix was perfect.
You really should watch/listen/react to "Way out of here" live from the same concert. Incredibly good!
Any song from this concert is pure gold
Enjoying your journey into great music 🎶
You need to watch the live versions of "Arriving Somewhere but not Here" and "Hatesong"!! Absolutely insane performance and production..
Thank you for showing this.
I know this song for so many years. but I still get goose bumps and tears of satisfaction in my eyes, everyday I hear this song.
Porcupine tree is a legend when it comes to live performances
One of the best live performances I've ever seen on CZcams. Stunning. Just ridiculously good.
Drew PTs "The Start of Something Beautiful" has been a favorite. "Trains" is great as well.
I actually found Porcupine Tree through Tool. I was trying to find something that could make me feel like Tool made me feel and this was recommended (and Opeth). Great stuff from all of these bands.
@Mario Castillo I am already familiar with both :)
You got my respect, man!
Since you checked out the band Opeth and are now looking into Porcupine Tree, you can do a song where those bands crossover. Porcupine Tree singer Steven Wilson is featured in the Opeth song "Bleak"; and it's a great song off of one of Opeth's classic albums.
I remember my first time hearing this and proceeded to spend a whole day listening to it back to back to back... truly a masterpiece. While I’m here, you should definitely give The Contortionist a listen, Language parts 1 and 2 together is the best gateway to their music
The length of great music pieces is never ridiculous. I discovered this tune and Gavin Harrison at the same time via a guitar center video of him playing it. After watching it, I opened Apple Music and heard this performance. It’s amazing. I’ve had several friends ask me to make a cover video of it but I won’t. I just want this song to be one that I enjoy listening to.
At the 6:30 mark, Gavin does a fill which impresses Keyboardist, Richard Barbieri as you can see at the 6:34 mark. I’ve been playing drums for 40 years and not even Neil Peart ever put a fill like that one together.
The part that begins at around 9:45 takes my soul out of my body.
Glad you like the live version as well told you
You have a perfect choice of music 😁
Thank you ))
An absolute masterpiece!
Great reaction and analysis.
When you listen live versions from Steven Wilson & Porcupine Tree you'll be amazed by the audio quality. The mixing is done at the highest level.
Even "Akinator" Know porcupine tree, i'm astonished
Saw them live at the Indigo2 in support of this album, they are so incredibly tight live it’s unreal. When you add in the visuals it really was a special gig.
Porcupine Tree were one of the most consistently top notch bands that has ever existed. With so many types of music they covered and so many albums released there is really very little that wouldn't be worth a listen. Pop in one of their albums some time in the background when you're busy with something and you just won't be disappointed.
Been followin for a long time, and you've become one of my favourite reactors, and you've gone in the right directions too, which is great. More Opeth, more PT!
My goodness...I'm speechless. Thought I already knew all the good porc tree songs.
Pink Floyd and Rush had a love child and threw in a little Nine Inch Nails. I just found this band. I can't believe I had never heard of them before. I can't stop listening to Arriving Somewhere but Not Here and Blackest Eyes. Great musicians and a lot of rehearsal and you get live performances like this. This band is tight!!
My introduction to Porcupine Tree was a friend lending me this DVD... Needless to say I was hooked
Fun fact, Steven Wilson, the front-man and self taught audio engineer, performs live shows without shoes and socks on. I have attended three of his solo tours when he came near Philly, can confirm this. Now, after 'Trains', 'Arriving Somewhere But Not Here'. This is a song that you should do both studio and live, though like this song, I prefer the live version more. Live version is from Chicago, the show titled 'Arriving Somewhere'. You'll be glad you did.
Love this! Just wow🙌 Now how about some Leprous?🙏🏻
