Description
TRANSMISSION REISSUE OF THE 2CD+DVD SET FROM PORCUPINE TREE - FEATURING 'THE INCIDENT' LIVE IN CHICAGO.
Regarded as one of the most impressive experimental/progressive/psychedelic rock bands to emerge from the UK since its inception in 1991, Porcupine Tree enjoyed a successful recording career spanning over 15 years.
The release of their acclaimed album 'The Incident' in 2009 was followed with a lengthy world tour before the band entered a hiatus, giving band members Steven Wilson, Richard Barbieri, Colin Edwin & Gavin Harrison time to work on their various solo careers & collaborations.
'The Incident' went top 30 in both the UK & USA & the world tour climaxed with sold out shows at Royal Albert Hall in London & Radio City Music Hall in New York. The album marked another step forward in the incredible journey of the band from a solo studio project created by 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 incredible shows.
'Octane Twisted' features 'The Incident' album in its entirety, recorded in Chicago. The end of the album contains 5 classic PT tracks also recorded in Chicago along with 3 highlights from the band's landmark show at Royal Albert Hall.
"Octane Twisted really captures the atmosphere & energy of a Porcupine Tree live concert experience. Recorded at a time when the band had the set well 'played in', you can hear the interaction between the band members as well as the audience as they navigate their way through 'The Incident' & many other older songs too." Gavin Harrison
This new 2CD + DVD Transmission edition of 'Octane Twisted' is presented in a digipack.
