Porcupine Tree - Anesthetize

Porcupine Tree is a highly successful progressive rock band formed by Steven Wilson (vocals, guitar, keyboards and songwriting). They are regarded by many as "the new Pink Floyd" (although Steven Wilson dismisses such thing) and they have released many albums, such as "The Sky Moves Sideways", "Stupid Dream", "In Absentia" and "Fear Of a Blank Planet" (their most successful).
"Anesthetize" is an epic, nearly 18-minute song from the album "Fear Of a Blank Planet". Here goes a live version of the song, split in two videos. Enjoy:







"Anesthetize" is also the name of a live DVD the band released last year (the videos above are taken from this very DVD). Classic Rock magazine considered it to be the "DVD release of the year". Check it out if you have the chance, even if you are not a fan of Porcupine Tree. Here's a trailer:
