4 stars No matter what people say this Pocupine Tree EP should not be underestimated. People criticize this EP for using old progressive rock stuff especially main riff of Pink Floyd's Another Brick In The Wall and also for its long ambient parts. But in my opinion since its an EP Wilson tried to make something experemental and there is nothing wrong with using old prog rock stuff and album's different sound. I think the outcome is fantastic and I recomend this EP conveniently.

There are 4 tracks in this EP and its about trip of a guy called Brain who used LSD. Wilson states that "I was given a tape of a guy having a bad trip in the Sixties. It was an anti-LSD propaganda album and it was perfect to form a narrative around which I could form this long, hypnotic, trippy piece of music."

Songs are quite long but if you don't expect a classical P.T or a porg. rock album you can enjoy the long sequencing parts while doing someting such as reading books. Also the album is good for meditation. I think this EP is one of the greatest work of P.Tree.
