Music reviews of Stupid Dream
Music Review: It's fine but nothing real special.
Rating: 3 Stars
According to Steven Wilson, this was the band's most ambitious and accessible release. I'll give it that it's pretty accessible. Many talk about how Lightbulb Sun is more pop than progressive but I think in all fairness that can be said about this release too. That one had "Russia on Ice" which wasn't quite pop from Wilson.
There isn't any filler (well, bar the title interlude) on this album but there's nothing real spectacular either, if you ask me. It's just a decent record, albeit one that references The Bends ("Piano Lessons"). The arrangements are respectable and while there's nothing real wrong with it I never really get into it. It's sort of just there for me. "A Smart Kid" is probably my favorite. This album does have that kind of dark theme prevalent to most of their albums. I do recommend this album, and for me 3 sometimes means a decent record.
Calling it stupid is harsh, and I think most people will get something out of this. But me, I prefer everything that came after.
