Stupid Dream is the fifth studio album by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree, first released in March 1999. It became the band's best selling album up to the time of its release. According to frontman Steven Wilson, "The album contains both the most accessible Porcupine Tree material to date and the most ambitious”.
The album was recorded at Foel Studios in Llanfair Caerinon, Wales, and at No Man's Land Studios at Hemel Hempstead, England. The production cost only £15,000. Strings were arranged by Chris Thorpe and Steven Wilson and performed by the East of England Orchestra. The Korean edition of Stupid Dream additionally included the "Piano Lessons" video. It was re-released on May 15, 2006 as both a 2 disc CD/DVD-A set, and double vinyl LP, but the double vinyl LP is only available through Burning Shed, the official Porcupine Tree store. The CD contains a new mix of the album by Steven Wilson, and the DVD-A contains a 5.1 surround mix, two bonus tracks and the video for "Piano Lessons".
