anything but "Jupiter Island"!

really, by far it's "Fadeaway" for me, and easy second is "Stars Die". But these are right behind it:

*The Sky Moves Sideways (both phases)
*The Sleep Of No Dreaming
*Russia On Ice
*Radioactive Toy
*Nine Cats
*Heartattack In A Layby (but I wish it was longer, it just starts creating an epic landscape, then, bam!, it's over.)
*Open Car (uh, this one could've been elabortated upon too, but still, it's sooooo good.)

...it is real...it is Rael...

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

I like a lot their last album, it's why i'm gonna say : "Arrival somewhere but not here"

But, my fave album is "Stupid Dream", so "Dont hate me" is one of my best.

Finally, I begin to listen to Procupine with "In Abstentia" and "Lips of Ashes" is my favourite on this one.

"A Flower!!!"

Good question and very difficult to answer.

I like there long suites like Sky Moves Sideways and Voyage 34, but you have to be in the mood for them.

The more recent stuff - Halo, Deadwing, Arriving Somewhere But Not Here, Open Car, Trains, Hatesong, A Smart Kid, .3 and Waiting [Both Phases] are my favourites.

Excellent Band, can't wait to see them in Manchester, in December.

"I find that I'm not there" is the first PT song I heard so... I adore it.

Anyway, I can add some others that I really love:

  • Dark matter
  • Strip the soul
  • Shallow
  • Blackest eyes
  • Fadeaway
  • Drown with me
  • The sound of Musak (of course )

* My eyes are full but my face is empty *

Mnemosyne:

great, thanks for mentioning 'Dislocated Day', I forgot to list that. An under-appreciated P.T. song!!! ('The Sky Moves Sideways' remains the best P.T. album, but that's another thread for another time...)

...it is real...it is Rael...
