This was the album that saw PORCUPINE TREE straying partially away from the dark, epic experimentalism of "Signify", and moving closer to tracks that were more song-oriented, even radio-friendly. While some old PORCUPINE TREE-fans began to balk, not only did PORCUPINE TREE win many new fans, it turns out that "Stupid Dream" is more the product of PORCUPINE TREE's ongoing evolution, and not at all the product of a desire to go commercial. To this day, it remains PORCUPINE TREE's poppier outfit and my favourite too... A real gem!
