Hello,

I have been completing my collection of Porcupine Tree

and I was wondering if any PT fans might be able to answer

a question for me?

I own the studio albums and live recordings of

Porcupine Tree and I was wondering if is there any reason to

purchase Stars Die?

It is from the Delirium years and it is a double CD that looks

well packaged as always.

Perhaps it includes different versions of a song or

it has songs only available on this particular Cd?

Thanks

MRock22

Definitely worth getting - lot of unreleased tracks, remixes, single tracks etc. I reckon about half of the content doesn't replicate earlier albums. Check Wikipedia and Stars Die for all the information you need.
