Discovering Porcupine Tree!

[ANDREW GARIBALDI]

If you want something that sounds like Hawkwind, then forget PT (or at least
try the other project 'I.E.M.' which has at least a space rock track on it),
but my advice is to get the Starfield CD that's out now and reviewed
somewhere on the website at:
http://www.andygee.dial.pipex.com/album.htm
or wait for the new Bedouin album which is just SENSATIONAL!!!
