Another week, another Porcupine Tree posting. This weeks were going to dig into the catalog a little deeper and use the same template as last week, some early work and some later work... But first a few more facts about the band...
So a couple of things happened with last week's SHT post...
And then one thing didn't happen...
PLAYLIST --> http://snack.to/ati2xaql
Here’s your question...
British commander General Cornwallis occupied this city but was driven out by hostile residents, prompting him to note that this city was "a hornet's nest of rebellion". Name that City!

Charlotte, N.C.?
Totally digging this Scott. I have a question. Does Wilson play the guitar on that first full track (the second actual track on the playlist). That's some great playing.
One thing that's really working for me is the fact that one track is almost easy listening, then the next is heavy as crap (in a good way, of course).
Thanks to watching Deadwood, I think I remember Merrick mentioning Cornwallis in Charlotte (I am assuming North Corolina). Or was he coming from there. Now I really think about it, Cornwallis was in the show when they were on the run. I've only watched the series about 50 times. Best show ever in my opinion.
so is it Charlotte. Don't they have a basketball team named the Hornets as well. or is it Charlotteville Hornets? I don't watch basketball anymore so I can't remember.
What a fine, fine selection. Fine selection, I must say. Now we can see why I keep pushing those two latter albums maybe or not. "{Radioactive Toy" does sound a bit like Floyd, especially during the geetaring. The rest of the songs? Notsomuch. Yes, that is one word. Hopefully this gets more peeps buying PT albums and hopefully it gets someone to give a certain album another spin so they can catch the brilliance.
A certain someone has spun a certain album a couple of more times recently. It's amazing to that certain someone how a certain musician can be so good on some albums and so.....what's the word I'm looking for......boring, as Niels would say, on others. Other than the first track, totally boring.
Overall, this is really good Scott. The songs from the first two albums sound great. I'd like to hear more of both of those. The only one that isn't peaking my interest are the last two tracks. And it's not that they are bad, they just sound the least interesting.
Enjoyed this a lot.
