Fear Of A Blank Planet
āAn aggressively modern merger of Rushās arena art rock, U.K. prog classicism especially Pink Floyd and King Crimson and the post-grunge vengeance of Tool.ā - Rolling Stone
Having recently announced that Snapper Music will be representing Porcupine Treeās Transmission label worldwide, new CD and LP reissues of the bandās extensive catalogue will roll out throughout 2021. Originally released in 2007, āFear Of A Blank Planetā was Porcupine Treeās ninth studio album. It was the bandās biggest selling album at the time, was their first album to break into the Billboard top 100 in the USA as well as charting across Europe, earned the band a Grammy nomination and has been featured in Rolling Stone Magazineās Greatest Prog Albums Of All Time.
āFear Of A Blank Planetā was an ambitious 50-minute piece of music made of 6 tracks that flow together to create a cohesive whole, the British art-rockers Porcupine Tree created a concept album based on the Bret Easton Ellis novel āLunar Parkā, with lyrics that addressed how the adolescent protagonist battled his bipolar and attention-deficit disorders with a regimen of prescription drugs and Internet overstimulation. The music used sprawling vocal melodies, atmospheric guitars and drums that tumbled through chaotic passages to echo the main characterās manic-depressive states. āFear Of A Blank Planetā features guest appearances from Robert Fripp (King Crimson) & Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson.
Porcupine Tree released their last album, āThe Incidentā, in 2009, marking another step forward in the incredible journey of the band that began as a solo studio project created by Steven Wilson in the late eighties to a multi grammy nominated act and one of the worldās most revered live bands, selling out arenas across the globe and wowing fans with their incredible performances. This new Transmission version of āFear Of A Blank Planetā will be released as a 2LP gatefold 140gm edition.
