²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý [ A B O U T . T H i S . R E L E A S E ] ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý This is the European edition of last years best ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý progressive rock album that was then only released ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý in the USA. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Anyone out there remember albums? I'm not talking ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý about the fragmented slabs of singles & filler that ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý come out every Tuesday. I'm talking about the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý complete experience, made up of songs, art, and the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý printed word. Something you can absorb as a whole. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Nowadays, too many of us live quickly and demand ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý that our music be sliced into bite-sized, easily ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý digestible listening fodder. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Thankfully, Steven Wilson and Richard Barbieri of ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Porcupine Tree still remember albums. "We've always ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý been more interested in the principle of an album ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý as opposed to a set of individual songs that don't ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý really hang together," says Wilson. The latest of ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý what Wilson refers to as "song-cycle" albums, In ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Absentia, is Porcupine Tree's major label debut and ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý the band's first proper U.S. introduction. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Wilson's definition of a "song-cycle" album is ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý basically anything where the record has "more ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý substance as a whole, rather than broken down into ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý its constituent parts." Records like "Quadrophenia, ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Dark Side of the Moon… some of Zappa's…" Barbieri ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý adds, "We try to be very ambitious and eclectic in ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý a single record. Lyrics, artwork and music sit ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý together very well. That's the way we approach ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Porcupine Tree albums. All aspects of media come ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý together in this beautiful package." ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Some of you are probably wondering... who is ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Porcupine Tree anyway? Are they a new band? Not at ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý all. The Tree (as the group's fans refer to them) ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý started out as the brain[CENSORED] of Steven Wilson back ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý in 1987. The band actually started out as a parody, ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ala Spinal Tap. Tired of doing computer tech ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý support, Wilson created a spoof of a rock ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý band--complete with a fake history. Together as a ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý band since 1993, Porcupine Tree is one of the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý U.K.'s most respected underground groups with a ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý fanbase that spans the globe. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Let's talk about the CD. One of the coolest things ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý about In Absentia is the multitude of musical ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý styles on the disc, and the way they all seem to ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý fit together--often within a single song. From the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý majestic opening track, "Blackest Eyes" to the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý soft, cinematic "Collapse the Light Into Earth," ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý the band effortlessly weaves its way through ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý acoustic bits with tender harmonies, assorted ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý electronic textures, expansive arrangements, and ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý bits of metal--all thrown together to create a ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý rich, sonically intense, musical landscape. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý As for the songs themselves, they etch themselves ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý into your memory the first time you hear them. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý "Blackest Eyes" has rock radio written all over it. ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý "Trains" is a perfect example of contrasting ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý musical styles juxtaposed against each other. "Lips ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý of Ashes" is a melancholy acoustic tune with lush ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Crosby, Stills & Nash-like vocals. Wilson takes a ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý stab at the music industry on "The Sound of Muzak" ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý (yes, he has a bit of an attitude--always a good ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý thing for a musician these days). ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý The band gives Rush a run for their money with the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý instrumental, "Wedding Nails," only to be followed ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý by the dreamy "Prodigal." A great melody and a ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý killer hook make this song another one that's ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý perfect for airplay. ".3" shows the darker side of ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý the band with its driving bass line, and is the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý perfect companion to "Strip the Soul" (the album's ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý first video, which is also included on the CD). ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Metal-heads will be drooling over "The Creator Has ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý a Mastertape." Then, in the complete opposite ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý direction, they follow it with the intricately ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý layered harmonies of "Heartattack in a Layby." ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý For the collectors out there, the original ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý pressings were released in a cardboard cover. After ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý the first 20,000 copies are gone, it will be ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý switched to the standard jewel box format. The CDs ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý are different colors, depending on which copy you ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý happen to get. The original discs (in the cardboard ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý cover) were a blood red color; the jewel box ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý version is black. There are also plans to released ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý the album on vinyl (the band actually has a clause ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý in their contract stating this). ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý Overall, In Absentia has a harder edge than the ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý band's last two albums, but that doesn't make it ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý any less enjoyable. Porcupine Tree is poised for a ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý huge breakthrough with this record. While not quite ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý as consistent as their previous one, Lightbulb Sun, ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý this is one disc that's sure to please old and new ²Ý
²ÛÛÛÛ²Ý fans alike. ²Ý
