Through a different kind of silence
I'm waiting, I'm wasting
Into the road of sadness
I'm walking without you

Hello, hello, hello, hello
Is it gonna last?
Why don't you come and take me with you?
And so I know you had to go
I'm dreaming of the past
An echo of the years we passed through

Asleep in your arms, I'm drifting
I'm falling in sorrow
Dead to the world, you left me
In footsteps, I follow

Hello, hello, hello, hello
Is it gonna last?
Why don't you come and take me with you?
And so I know you had to go
I'm dreaming of the past
An echo of the years we passed through

Hello, hello, hello, hello
Is it gonna last?
Why don't you come and take me with you?
And so I know you had to go
I'm dreaming of the past
An echo of the years we passed through

This gets played only 20 minutes after PT? Okay, I'm officially sick of this guy now. But if you're a fan, well, it's your lucky day.

 
jk:  Please explain.  You have Porcupine Tree and Blackfield songs rated at 10.

I like Porcupine Tree, but this sounds too much like Many Too Many for me to enjoy it.  I also find his flimsy vocals a bit irritating at times.

Hello, hello, do I sound a bit like a poor mans Pink Floyd, Hello Hello.

The instrumentals are plodding, and the singing...just horrible!!!

Echt, ääh? Der Kracha, äääh? Geil, wa?

Blackfield play in the tradition of Floyd. That we can dismiss them without regret!

BORING MUSIC FROM TIMES LONG GONE!

I love almost anything by Steven Wilson, this one is dreamy.
Posted 12 years ago by PurplePrincess    [ Reply ]
I love pretty much love everything Steve Wilson, but on later Blackfield albums you can pick out which songs were written by Avi - the weak ones. Not a fan of Avi at all.

I don't know well either Porcupine Tree nor Blackfield, but this song reminds me of Porcupine Tree...

Great song, great discovery.

Well, the label looks impressive.  Nice tune, too

I love pretty much all of Steven Wilson's stuff that I've heard, but he ruined the new Anathema cd in my opinion.  Of course, he was "only" the producer and didn't write the material, but I much preferred the band the way it was before he started messing with it.

Posted 15 years ago by westslope    [ Reply ]
Porcupine Tree and Blackfield are the same guy?  No wonder I dislike both of them with similar intensity.  I feel much better that two groups didn't independently come up with this depressing, noisy sludge.

Wilson is something of a musical workaholic- PT is clearly his "main" band- then there is Blackfield(with Israeli singer Aviv Geffen), No Man (with Tim Bowness), Bass Communion (his ambient drone stuff), and IEM (Incredible Expanding Mindfuck) which is his Krautrock influenced stuff. I think he works about 22 hours a day LOL
My lord, I'd give my firstborn to have that kind of creative output. Respect.

A few minutes ago we had Porcupine Tree: Halo. Now we have Blackfield: Hello. Hello, Halo!
Posted 16 years ago by skdenfeld    [ Reply ]
You should check out the Blackfield video for the song Blackfield- very cool It's by Lasse Hoile who does so much of Porcupine Tree's graphics and video stuff (and coincidentally is the scary lookin guy on the cover of In Absentia that everyone always cries about). He's this enormous Scandinavian multimedia artist that the band refers to as "the Yeti" LOL And the "Blackfield Live in NYC" DVD is very fun too. I recommend it for anyone that enjoys the few Blackfield songs that get airplay here.

I saw an oustanding YouTube video of this song done live....Hello Hello Hello S.A.

Oh man this threw me, at first i was positive it was blackfield, but then that guitar kicked in and i thought, "Oh, I'm dumb, that's floyd" and i look, and its BLACKFIELD!! gah. Oh well, now i know

As I understand it, Steve Wilson is the singer for both Blackfield and Porcupine Tree. Are they concurrently producing, or did one precede the other?

SW does Blackfield (and other side projects) while in-between PT projects

First time hearding this and I am really digging it. I like the slow, somewhat dark feel of the music. Would like to hear more from the album!

Turn away from dirges, turn away from mournful drones punctuated by a sadly trite guitar.

I've warmed up to this record a bit more recently. It was a little too dark for my taste at first...

Good album, if a bit dark. I submitted the title track, Blackfield, some time ago, but it was rejected. :(

Blackfield is a collaboration between Israeli singer songwriter Aviv Geffen and Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson
