5 out of 5 stars It's Worth It!.......2004-06-09

If you are a new PT listener, already have the previous release or new to the PT universe, you must get this album!

It is one of the best live "rock" albums ever and the remastering and extra tracks along with new case artwork help it surpass its already impressive former incarnation.

I have both editions and am not sorry I bought the re-release. No sir/mam, not one bit.

5 out of 5 stars Only need a short review for this one..........2003-08-16

The music must really speak for itself because only so much can be said about _Coma Divine_. Pardon the cheesy cliché, but this album is simply beyond words -- and the limited edition two-disc version is even better and YES, it is definitely worth the extra money (even if you have the original!). You get different artwork although you'd have to be ULTRA-hardcore for that fact alone to inspire a purchase (my opinion is that the new art is great, anyhow). The extra music is what is really matters. Okay, it may only be four additional tracks, but they are completely invaluable, completing the perfect set of the original _Coma Divine_ songs and making the album far more fulfilling overall. "IS...NOT" is actually just six-minutes of "The Sky Moves Sideways Part II" and that alone is worth it, but "The Moon Touches Your Shoulder" is pretty much audio sexual chocolate so sublime it could kill. "Up the Downstair" and "Always Never" are narcotic treats that could neatly simulate any hallucinogen. This is easily the best Porcupine Tree album and definitely one of my favorite albums ever. Every song's live version here SLAUGHTERS its counterpart. I'm sure no rock band has ever gotten a live sound onstage anywhere near as beautiful as this. If you have it, you should already know that "Waiting" phases one and two is basically orgasmic, and that "The Sky Moves Sideways" is a kaleidoscopic trippin' epic that truly reaches its potential here, and that "Radioactive Toy" is about as euphoric as a carnal dream of Chyler Leigh....err, ahem. If you don't have it, ARGH you have to have it. Every man dies, but not every man truly lives unless they have _Coma Divine_.

5 out of 5 stars Better than the original.......2003-07-20

I bought it to add to my PT collection.

The artwork is totally different, which I like a lot. The whole thing is worth having. I always end up buying PT's CDs, no matter how old or new they are.

Coma Divine is a live PT concert, recorded in Rome. All tracks are excellent, and they sound fantastic. Steve Wilson is a remarkable musician and song-writer. There's no boundaries when he performs live.

Radioactive Toy has to be one of my absolute favorite PT recordings, live or studio. To have it on this CD adds to the pleasure of listening to them live.

I went to see PT only twice now, but they get better each time. When they came to Montreal on the 16th of July, 2003, they blew the crowd away. I'm really impresed with their live material. It's more heavy and sometimes more "jamming" than the studio recordings. That's okay!

Compared to the original version, Coma Divine Expanded looks great, in its entirety. I love the CD design itself. Very plain discs, but with really "revisited" artwork, on both the back insert and front and back covers of the booklet. All interior artwork/photos are the same. Nothing new there.
