It's fine that you shared it. Problem is, it isn't that good (I agree with "samey").

Just trying to share the new PT single. Nothing but negative or dismissive comments so far. Fair enough.

Interesting article on Porcupine Tree and the current status of the band, and or possibly the end after 2022....
Some telling thoughts on how things went about in 2010, with Steven Wilson walking away. |

I think the song is OK as well, I do enjoy Harridan quite a lot, looking forward to hearing that one live. I can only expect with all the pent up anticipation for new PT over the past 10 years that this album will be a pretty big seller. What will be interesting to me, although I am sure I know the answer, is whether Steven Wilson wrote all the music? He has been stating that he was not interested in new PT album unless the other members were going to contribute much of the music creation. Without Colin Edwin, I assume he has done all the writing.....

Fantastic news for sure! As for this song, I am not as crazy about it as I was for 'Harridan' which was a much more interesting listen. Hopes are still very high for the upcoming new release.

Yeah... I think it's solid, OK, not outstanding, but for sure nothing that puts me off that album. I don't think it sounds forced, to me it's organic enough, but then nothing special either.

^Odd song. The segue between the mellow and heavy part sounds forced to me. As if they are two different songs. Sounds like PT we have heard before.
Other thoughts? |

Most bands are like that for pre-sale codes, either that or you have to actually pay and join the band fanclub....that's how Iron Maiden does it if you wanna get pre-sale code.

Agree, but underneath that statement is a link to a "no purchase needed" link. You should have received a pre-sale code as well if you signed up at PT.com I also pre-ordered last year......

Interesting....their ticket presale page states "PRE-ORDER 'CLOSURE / CONTINUATION' FROM THIS STORE TO ACCESS PRE-SALE TICKETS"......I pre-ordered CL/CO on vinyl back in early November 2021 from Burning Shed. It would be rather greasy of them to not likewise honor preorders by us who did so earlier.

US/Canada/Mexico/Chile tour dates added a few days ago. Sadly for me no Seattle date but will be going to the San Francisco show in September. I bought tixs this morning on the pre-sale, public sale I think is Friday 3/11/22. I was shocked at the ticket prices
 , SW solo tours have been in the $40-$50 range and I've seen him 3x. Porcupine Tree prices are 3x that at minimum, I could have gotten 2nd row seats but those were $400/ea...Cra-cra!

Hi, I think this is sort of like the old days in the 60's when the singles came out, and if they hit some reasonable thoughts and numbers, the record company would immediately work an album to try and maintain the momentum. I think that SW has a lot of different choices and ideas, and is not clear what he wants or doesn't want, and if the single confuses people, or they love it, it takes away 5 other choices he might have had. Honestly, if you have to go fishing to figure out what you want to do, or need to do, he's just fishing for more money ... just like the old days! Good gawd ... 60 years ... and still the same folks and ideas! Where has progressive gone? To the cows and pastures! Maybe some milk will come!

It’s what I always do these days. The last time I listened to a single ahead of an album’s release was SW’s “Permanating”, which I thought was dire when I heard it. I didn’t listen to any of the other “To The Bone” singles, and only listened to the album after I read a review that stated how much the reviewer hated “Permanating” when it was released as a single, and lamented it’s choice as a single because they felt it worked incredibly within the album itself. The reviewer stated that it went from a hated to a loved song once heard within context. I gave “To The Bone” a listen, and I really liked it. Ever since, I have always ensured to ignore pre-release singles, and I only ever listen to those singles once I have the album, so that I can hear them in context. I thought it would be hard, but it has actually been really easy. There is always so much to listen to, that I don’t need to hear individual songs ahead of an album. Would I have liked the singles released from SW’s “The Future Bites” if I heard them outside the context of the album? I don’t know - but I do know that TFB is probably my favourite SW solo album. 🤷🏻♂️ So, I’m probably one of only a few PT fans who are eagerly awaiting the new album, but haven’t yet listened to the new single. |
