Synesthesia is said to be a potential consequence of taking psychedelics which results in a variety of sensory reactions in those who experience it. Rather than bore you with a definition of what this condition means, mostly because I have no idea what it is, I will say this: Up The Downstair is the musical equivalent of a psychedelic drug. It's addictive and certainly stimulates the senses, or the aural sense at least. As a whole this album is arguably Porcupine Tree at their most psychedelic, and their first successful attempt in creating a tangible and structured piece of music.

A good album, in the sense that this time round there are actual, well-structures songs and not random psychedelic noises that seem to have no place on the album whatsoever. The three 'songs' under one minute don't seem to have any significance, but you can see the maturity and progression of the band's sound from their debut to this album.
