I'm not affiliated with these guys (wish I were), but I can't stress enough how freakin good they are. Much of their material is very floydish (mostly the older stuff), though they're impossible to classify. You'll be taken from the deepest depths of hard, industrial metal to flying over beautiful string melodies and piano choruses and back many times over.

Here are a few vids to check out (especially for you musicians out there. Gavin, the drummer, is a monster. The whole band is phenomenal)

(nice mj video someone did for the song "Pure Narcotic")
YouTube - Porcupine Tree - Pure Narcotic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfTbgJZ5o7o)

The latest single, much heavier but super awesome
YouTube - Porcupine Tree "Fear Of A Blank Planet" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUnAxegUJu0)

Awesome acoustic driven song, live "Trains"

And one last song, "Open Car" live great chorus

I only listened to Lightbulb Sun, but that's a pretty good album. Check it out.
