Title: Porcupine Tree - New Album "Closure / Continuation"
Post by: Peter on Mon, 2021-11-01, 17:31:10
So,
the wishes of the whole PT fanbase finally came true... they are realeasing a new album. It's been in the making on and off every since the release of "The Incident", as the web site (https://porcupinetree.com/) states. They're also selling an awful lot of special collection items on presale, I just ordered the Deluxe CD set.

The new single Haridan (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW5v4Ohxk5k) is out... the rest of the album will be released in June 2022, it seems. Maybe we'll get another glimpse along the way.

I just hovered over to the old PT community forum (https://porcupinetreeforum.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl), just to find out that it's now a hemp blog of sorts  ;D ;D ;D ;D

To be honest, the artwork says it's just another Steven solo album, but early PT-stuff was basically Steven as well.
I like the new song!
Reminds me of The Incident and Steven's latest effort The Future Bites.
Has anyone bought tickets yet?
I have. :)
Ziggo dome, Amsterdam.

I wanted to go with my son, but ticket prices are hilarious, didn't expect the need to sell my soul for a gig...

Unfortunately I don't share your enthusiasm. The music of PT and Steven Wilson doesn't appeal to me. Not accessible enough for my taste I'm afraid. Believe me, I tried it. But I'm happy for you, honest 🙂.

Well, I didn't sell my soul but I did had to explain a few things to the missus. Lol
But I get what you're saying. It's way too expensive.

This is something I look forward to.
But I'm prepared to be disappointed. ;)
The single was alright, but for me didn't live up to the hype. Great drums though, of course.

The second single is better I think.
Of the New Day sounds fresh, just like a PT song. Didn't had that feeling with Harridan.
