I've listened to the album about twenty timers now since buying it. I love this band, and I have really tried to give the album a fair chance, certainly before attempting to review it on PA.

However, I'm sorry, but I am now finding it almost impossible to listen all the way through. I never thought I would say this about any prog LP, and certainly not about PT, but I find it unutterably BORING. I have prog LPs which I find bad, self indulgent, crazy, but never dull, and this one is.

As things stand, it would only get a 2 star review from me, and that would probably be because of the shameless rip off of Animals, which remains my favourite PF album.

Am I alone in thinking this? (and, no, I haven't read all the postsLOL)


Not a damn bit.


Hi Robert

Yes, I saw your review, and agree with every word - actually, it was one of the very few times when I WANTED to disagree with you, but, as usual, couldn'tAngryBig smile


I wish my wife felt this way!  LOL

Hope you're doing well, my friend, and yes, I'm sad that The Incident is the worst Porcupine Tree album of the decade.  Too bad- I was really looking forward to it.  Disapprove

I think it's a brilliant album.

Some real classic tracks, The Blind House, Time Flies, The Incident, the wonderfully powerful Circle of Manias and then I Drive the Hearse which is just sublime.

Not a bad follow up to Fear of a Blank Planet at all.
There is in fact more earth than sea.
