And so my #PorcupineTree #StevenWilson collection begins!
I don't think that my taste in music has developed enough before now to give this a proper listen, despite endless recommendations.

I've had a lot of guidance from people on here about personal favourites and where to begin with such a big catalogue of work. All of it has been very welcome, unlike what I've experienced elsewhere. No eye rolling about how late I am to the party or patronising comments 😊
Mastodon is lovely 😍
