I'm not actually sure I can answer this question accurately. I can say that as a child, I grew up in a music loving home. My parents always had the telly on one of the music channels (you know, back when they actually played music at least 30% of the time.) or the radio on. I always heard so many great things, and some things over and over. Being as I didn't ask many questions regarding these bands, or anything of that sort, I didn't exactly learn band or album names except some of the family favourites. I would usually turn my radio on as well, and listen to the same stations that my family had. Then, I didn't realise just how narrow their tastes were, and as a result, I too became intolerant of anything that wasn't mainstream rock and roll. I was very picky, and so much so that I would reject much of the music that my brother liked, for example (metal), and stuck to what was familiar. U2 was a favourite for me at this point in time. I found a lot of comfort in their music during what was a very screwy time in my life. I'm not sure what exactly caused me to drift from them, short of perhaps they reminded me of some not so great times. In 2006, I rediscovered my love for U2, and two years later, that led me into another notable band in my history of music loving - Porcupine Tree. As a matter of fact, I had a problem liking their music because it wasn't a compressed three minute pop-rock single. Watching the live DVD was a real turning point for me. Something clicked and I realised just how amazing they were. From there, I began to explore Steven Wilson's other musical projects and influences and found so many wonderful, somewhat unknown bands and artists. I suppose you could say discovering Porcupine Tree is when music really became real for me. Not only did music come to life, but I did with it.

A friend of mine recommended this to me, but I'm not certain where to start. Could someone recommend me an album?

! Thanks for reminding me. :D

I wasn't thrilled with the performance to be honest but considering their age, not too shabby! The light show was pretty rad too.
