Audio Compression
To me, compressing a musician’s audio track is roughly analogous to adding a little bit of white to every color in a painter’s palette, causing them to fade. The picture (or sounds) aren’t as bright or clear as before.
The Incident | Porcupine Tree
I think the only thing regarding Porcupine Tree that amazes me more than meeting supposed rock/metal music aficionados that have never even heard of Porcupine Tree is how many albums they’ve released and have yet to bore me. This is a band that is constantly growing and led by someone with a very clear passion for music. Whether you’ve never heard Porcupine Tree before or you’re a long time fan, their latest release will not disappoint.

Ki | Devin Townsend
Devin Townsend actually has a rather extensive music résumé, and while I encourage you to check it out, I’d just be regurgitating wikipedia if I tried to summarize it. On the other hand, I have been listening his latest album, Ki (2009), practically non-stop since Monday night. I’ve gone from worrying I may have finally bought an album based on instinct I would end up not liking, to thinking this isn’t so bad, and finally to realizing… holy shit, this album is brilliant! Hopefully, I can help you skip the first few steps.
