I'd like a pair of in-ear ones but they cost just as much as my massive pair of princess Leia hair buns.
I am currently obsessed with their live cd Warszawa. Shesmovedon has the most gorgeous solo, nothing like the studio track.

Ive been really into the Fear of a Blank Planet album recently - and I saw this thread so I thought I would come and post here

I just bought my tickets to the LA show on September 19th. Not sure what i'm more excited about, the new album or the show. I'll suffice to say that both are sure to be epically amazing. Can not f***ing wait.
I just watched the piano lessons music video, it's definitely odd but in a good way. I loved it, Makes me appreciate the song more for some reason, never really liked the song much. xD
Everyone wishing to participate in the PT song elimination thread, I updated so head on over when you can.

Hi, everyone.
I only got into PT a few months ago, but I'm taking advantage of my opportunity to see them in my home city next month. I haven't quite managed to obtain and listen to all of the music of a band who've been playing as long as I've been alive, but I've got:
Deadwing
Fear of a Blank Planet
In Absentia
Lightbulb Sun
Stupid Dream
So my question is, aside from those (and I mean just the albums; I don't have any b-sides or anything) and the upcoming album, are there other songs I really must check out before seeing them live? Concert regulars or quintessential songs I should know to enhance the experience?
I appreciate any recommendations, and thanks in advance!
I need to believe, but I still want more

You've covered all the basics there really, they're likely to play stuff from Nil Recurring EP (such as Normal).
B-sides are likely, Drown With Me, Futile, Half-light etc. You might also get some of the older, rarer stuff like Stars Die, Dark Matter or maybe Radioactive Toy.

^ Thanks! I have heard Radioactive Toy; I remember now that I hear the title. I'll be sure to check out the other songs, too. There's still time to properly listen to a set number of songs. Thanks again.

From UG.
Prog-rockers Porcupine Tree have mapped a quick dash across the US next month to coincide with the impending release of the band's latest studio album, "The Incident."
The British outfit kicks off the outing Sept. 15 in Seattle, and will hit nine cities on the run, which concludes Sept. 26 in Philadelphia.
Due to surface in early September, "The Incident" is the band's 10th studio album, and follows 2007's critically acclaimed "Fear Of A Blank Planet," which peaked at No. 57 on The Billboard 200, and landed on many critics' end-of-the-year best album lists.
The band enlisted Danish cinematographer (and longtime Porcupine Tree collaborator) Lasse Hoile to craft a video for the new album's "Time Flies." The video will be streaming at the band's MySpace page, Monday 31.
"The song is about the idea that when you're young, days, months, and especially summers go on forever. It's an illusion we all experience," singer/guitarist Steven Wilson said of "Time Flies" in a press statement. "The years between one and 10 are an eternity, but the years after the age of twenty go by in a snap."
The group formed in 1987 as a side-project to Wilson's other act, No-Man, an art-rock duo that also includes singer/songwriter Tim Bowness.

Cool about the myspace page.
I've just ordered the album off of play.com, only £9! And that comes with an exclusive live track
All is good.
Oh, and if anyone wants to buy me the deluxe version then I would really be greatful. Speaking of that, the Porcupine Tree deluxe edition puts The Resistance deluxe box to shame to be fair.

Does the mp3 come with the release of the album, or is a download you get when you pre-order the album? Isn't it Way Out of Here live? I tried downloading it, but i'm unable to do so. If you get hold of it, could you send it my way? That'd be great
It was a bright, cold day in April and the clocks were striking thirteen.

Yeah of course I will. On the play.com website it says that I'll get emailed my promotional code and website address so I can download it, a few days after ordering...
|
|

Cheers. I ordered the album a fair while ago and went on the free download webpage, but every time I attempted to dwnload it, it failed and brought up an error page. All that was required was the email and promotional code. Not sure why it failed tbh.

Hmm. Strange. Hopefully mine will work.
Seeing them in a month and a half for the second time
|
|

Yes, here's hoping.
Haha, me too. Saturday, October 12th. Can't wait. Will be my first time though

Seeing them the 19th if this month for the very first time.
|
|
|
Let us know the setlist eh?
Do either of you know who is supporting them when you're seeing them?
I have a band called 'Engineers' who play 'shoegaze' music.
Good? 
Edit: 'The Incident' has leaked, but it's a low quality recording from a stream, so I'm going to pass.
|
|
|
Mmm, low quallity, really? I haven't heard to whole thing yet, but at least it says it is a 320 kbs rip, so the album should sound awesome 
Anyway, I have some links, if someone wants them just PM me
