93.9??? ok...

good thing I saw that, as that's about to happen in 2 hours

I was able to order the deluxe copy and very much looking forward to it.  However, would really like a DVD-A for the car.  Don't want to sound like a complainer though.  That blu-ray is going to sound awesome.

Is anyone else annoyed that the Bluray version of SW's new album is only available in the super deluxe edition?

I'd love to get it, but can't afford it this time around. Annoying to have to miss out on the Bluray copy though.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

PT = great band
Just wish SW would give us a little bonus or previously unreleased material every now and then.

Thanks for reading, and please check out my other articles. I've interviewed a lot of prog artists.

I discovered PT when I was 13 and entering High School. In Absentia was my first and it's still my favorite by far. I was in NYC last week for the listening party of Grace for Drowning, and I was able to speak with Steven there. Check it out below (and sorry if I sound like a troll or attention whore haha. I'm just trying to spread the prog rock goodness).

I agree. I can here thier progression moving forward through the '00's to more of a "mainstream" prog sound and style. I hope Wilson doesn't go that way of The Incident on the next album. Bring back the heavy prog and/or space/psych sound.

There's no PT like 90's PT. Hug

Actually, their music has spanned a multitude of styles over their career, but you're right - those are definitely pivotal albums.  I just hope they keep on making them until they are old and grey.  ;-)



Indeed, the first few albums were especially strange. Coma Divine is so odd but so good :p

I think with how hard Steven and the rest of the band work, I don't think we need to worry any time soon.
