download full mp3 Lightbulb Sun. Some older fans looked askance at Lightbulb Sun, feeling it was verging on overt commercialism (and admittedly, the near power ballad solo on "Where We Would Be" is a bit odd!). Then again, given Wilson's own explorations of avant-garde pop with No-Man, who's to say why a slightly more radio-friendly stance can't work? "Shesmovedon" may have been a single, but there's no question who wrote and performed it -- the elegant cascade of backing vocals on the chorus shows that much. Certainly Wilson hasn't turned into Max Martin or anything -- it's still very much Porcupine Tree, in its lyrical turns of phrase and general sense of exploration. One of the best tracks on the album is the brilliantly titled "Four Chords That Made a Million," a barbed cut on some unnamed "emperor in new clothes" beset by a "moron with a cheque book." The lead riff is a majestic hit of flange and feedback, while the hints of sitar and Indian percussion give the song even more attractive heft. But there's a definite bent towards calmer art pop throughout Lightbulb Sun -- those who preferred the sheer surge of will find this album tamer in comparison. Still, it's hard to resist the beautiful, understated tension about a fractured friendship or relationship on "Feel So Low" or the gentle, string-touched roll and build of "The Rest Will Flow," flat out two of Wilson's best tunes anywhere. Those who prefer the lengthy explorations won't be disappointed, though -- "Hatesong" unfolds its sharp message over eight minutes and the string-swept, slow time explosion of "Russia on Ice" over 13. Slyest title of the bunch -- "Last Chance to Leave the Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled," which samples the videotape made by the leader of the Heaven's Gate cult before its mass suicide in 1997.

I remember first listening to this album on my MP3 player (a while ago!) sitting in the back seat of my parents’ car on a long drive somewhere. I loved it then, but didn’t fully connect with it until some years later when I had a bad breakup and the songs on here really resonated with me. It’s not strictly a breakup album, there are a few interesting themes explored across the songs, but a good six tracks deal with heartbreak. That’s not to say it’s bleak at all, I actually find this album very uplifting and inspirational. It helped me get through a tough time. The album continues the poppier, singer-songwriter sound introduced on Stupid Dream (1999), and further blends it beautifully with PROG experimental flavours; particularly on the 13-minute epic ‘Russia On Ice’ and 8-minute ‘Hatesong’. The shorter numbers are just as enjoyable. Check out the haunting ‘Feel So Low’ and the infectiously uplifting ‘The Rest Will Flow’. As soon as the melodic guitar line in the title track kicks in, you know you’re in for a brilliant album. The production is organic and crystal clear, as always from , but I think there has to be a particular shout out to for some truly tasteful and memorable drumming; this was his final album in the band and it fittingly showcases a prominent drum sound in the mix.
