[2016-05-13] Porcupine Tree "On The Sunday Of Life" repack of 2009 edition (Kscope)

Description
Porcupine Tree's 1991 debut album 'On The Sunday Of Life' is an album that stands up as a modern day pop-psych classic. With acid warped lyrics courtesy of Alan Duffy (the brains behind the late lamented Imaginary Records label) the album is a surreal delight containing gems such as "Jupiter Island" and "Linton Samuel Dawson" filled with quirky melodies, effected vocals and trippy backwards guitar work. "Nine Cats", the undoubted masterpiece of the album, is pure Edward Lear styled psychedelia. 'On The Sunday Of Life' also hints at the direction the band would later take with more progressive influenced material such as the epic ‘Radioactive Toy’. This edition of 'On The Sunday Of Life' will be presented as a 18 track CD in a digipak with a 16 page colour booklet featuring lyrics and sleevenotes from Steven Wilson. 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 and one of the world’s most revered live bands, selling out arenas across the globe and wowing fans with their incredible performances. Steven Wilson is currently enjoying global chart success with his fourth solo album 'Hand. Cannot. Erase.' and is continuing to tour worldwide.

Time for Steven to put out an official, widespread release of "Tarquin's Seaweed Farm," "Love, Death & Mussolini" and "The Nastolgia Factory."

Yes. Wilson remixed and remastered the 1991 album in 2009. This is a new packaging of that 2009 version.

Tonight Steven played an oldie "Dark Matter" from the Signify album going way back in the catalogue. It sounded freakin' awesome. Man does his guitars have crunch along with David Kilminister.
