Description
TRANSMISSION DIGIPACK CD EDITION OF PORCUPINE TREE'S GROUND-BREAKING
1997 FIRST OFFICIAL LIVE ALBUM
Having recently announced that Snapper Music will be representing Porcupine Tree’s Transmission label worldwide, new CD & LP reissues of the band’s extensive catalogue continue to roll out throughout 2021.
Riding high on the success of their 1996 album ‘Signify’, Porcupine Tree achieved their first 'break' when Italian station Radio Rock playlisted "Radioactive Toy" & invited the band over to Rome to the largest audience they had played for. Returning to the city near the end of the ensuing European tour, the band recorded performances over three nights creating their first ever official live album, ‘Coma Divine’. This edition of the album features bonus tracks not included on the original 1997 CD release, including the early classics, "Radioactive Toy" & "Up The Downstair" & documents the turning point in a band that soon became pivotal to the prog rock scene.
Porcupine Tree released their last album, ‘The Incident’, in 2009, marking another step forward in the incredible journey of the band that began as a solo studio project created by Steven Wilson in the late eighties to a multi grammy nominated act & one of the world’s most revered live bands, selling out arenas across the globe & wowing fans with their incredible performances.
This new Transmission edition of ‘Coma Divine’ is presented in a digipack.

TRANSMISSION 3LP EDITION OF PORCUPINE TREE'S GROUNDBREAKING 1997 FIRST OFFICIAL LIVE ALBUM.
Following the reissue campaign that began in 2021, the classic Porcupine Tree live album is now being released on Transmission worldwide.
After the success of their 1996 album 'Signify', Porcupine Tree achieved their first 'break' when Italian station Radio Rock playlisted 'Radioactive Toy', whilst also inviting the band over to Rome for their largest audience to date.
Returning to the city near the end of the ensuing European tour, the band recorded performances over three nights to create their first ever official live album, 'Coma Divine'.
This edition features bonus tracks not previously included on the original 1997 CD release documenting a watershed moment in not just Porcupine Tree's career but the scene of Prog Rock itself.
Returning in 2022 with the #2 UK Official Chart-topping album 'Closure // Continuation' & a slew of arena dates that ran well into 2023, Porcupine Tree returned with perhaps their largest presence to date. Alongside this, grammy nominated performer, songwriter & producer Steven Wilson embarked on an extensive solo career & has released his brand-new studio offering 'The Harmony Codex' this year as well.
This new Transmission edition of 'Coma Divine' is presented in a 3LP.
