As hinted earlier, the album art (hopefully cover I say!) of a small child with deep blue eyes will attract those who enjoy almost all forms of music, not simply prog, or rockers. Imagine it on a shelf in a large electronic/music store, I'd at least pick it up, I feel as though it's staring through me! Everything else in stores today seems so plain, musically and artistically.
I can't wait to hear Blank Planet.

that artwork is stunning, I hope Fear of a Blank Planet gets released on vinyl as I think it would be an amazing gatefold.

Saw this earlier. Awesome cover. I'm very excited for this release. I
just hope it lives up to expectations after hearing that it sounds like
a mix between IA and TSMS.

I really like the blue and black color scheme. The cover kind of reminds me of U2's War, in a distant way.

The new Porcupine Tree has moved up on my list of most anticipated release of 2007. Right behind Marillion and Neal Morse, and wedged in between Rush and Dream Theater.

BTW, playing around in Photoshop with the image reveals this:
Our boy is a kind of angelic looking "hoody"...

cool. Looks to me like he's being brainwashed or something and he's in front of a TV/video game system-type thing.

As I mentioned previously Alex Lifeson of Rush plays on Anesthetize the 17 min long "epic", apparently some people who have been to the special preview sessions have reported that the solo sounds out of place....

Tried zooming in on the eyes. Thought there might be something interesting in them but the resolution goes bad. May be wishful thinking
