	Porcupine Tree - Satan Stole My Teddybear
		Porcupine Tree purvey an somber variety of art rock, alternating between haunting gloom and murky dissonance within rather linear rock numbers.
		Porcupine tree can be very complex, but also very subdued when minimalism is required.
		And although Porcupine Tree may have more accessibility on this release than ever before, there is still that factor of the band's unusual approach to music.

	Porcupine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Porcupines are rodents best known for their coat of sharp spines, or quills, that defend them from predators.
		Porcupines occupy a wide range of habitats in tropical and temperate parts of Asia, Italy, Africa and the Americas.
		The 12 New World porcupines are mostly smaller (although the North American Porcupine reaches about 85 cm in length and 18 kilograms), have their quills attached singly rather than grouped in clusters and are excellent climbers, spending much of their time in trees.

	Porcupine Tree - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Porcupine Tree Mp3 Music, Downloads, Lyrics, Videos, Pictures, News.
		Porcupine Tree has made a few visits to the U.S. in their two-decade career but did not start to launch in popularity until their hit album from 2002 known as "In-Absentia" spun off the radio hit "Blackest Eyes", leaving many to wait until 2005 for the bands most recent effort "Deadwing" (Atlantic Records).
		Porcupine Tree continued to tour and plan ahead for both new recordings and reissues of older, rarer material, the first of which surfaced in May of 2001, titled Recordings.
		Porcupine Tree, over the course of 8 albums (including their acclaimed In Absentia), has bridged the expanse somewhat, creating a sound that is rooted in traditional prog values, but with a dark, alt veneer.

	InternetEd Reviews: Porcupine Tree- In Absentia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Porcupine Tree is one of those rare progressive bands that doesn’t merely attempt to mimic the prog sounds of old.
		Unlike Porcupine Tree’s earlier Stupid Dream album, In Absentia does not sound like alternative music with a slight hint or prog—in fact, it is a reverse of that arrangement with a much healthier dose of progressive rock innovation.
		With “Gravity Eyelids,” Porcupine Tree has unleashed a song that is every bit as ambient as any of Radiohead’s recent work, and “Prodigal” includes a rich voice harmony that is reminiscent of the blend of Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour and Roger Waters.

	Porcupine Tree
		Porcupine Tree, a cross between the art rock of King Crimson and the modern rock of Radiohead, surprisingly had little trouble in attracting big-label attention when it returned to America last year for a tour.
		Therein lies the quandary for the British rock quartet Porcupine Tree.
		On its U.S. debut album, "Signify" (released Jan. 13 on ARK 21), Porcupine Tree travels trippy terrain carved by Pink Floyd and King Crimson, but singer-guitarist Steven Wilson and his band mates have more in common with Radiohead and Kula Shaker, taking the classic rock format and putting it in a modern rock context.

	Porcupine Tree
		Porcupine Tree began in 1987 as the musical explorations of Steven Wilson into psychedelic music.
		All three new members of the group had worked with Steven on various projects over the years and all were excellent musicians sympathetic to the sound and direction of Porcupine Tree.
		The important thing with Porcupine Tree is that all our songs have a unique sound world that they inhabit.

		Porcupine Tree was born in 1987 as an outlet for the home studio explorations of Steven Wilson (born in London, 3rd November 1967) into psychedelic, experimental and progressive music.
		As the first Porcupine Tree album had been very much a self indulgent and in some ways nostalgic look back at Steven's favourite music from the 60's and 70's he felt in order to take the project forward it was important to develop the sound into new and more contemporary areas.
		Together with the "Moonloop" EP, this album became the first Porcupine Tree music to be issued in America in the autumn of 1995 and attracted very favourable press on both sides of the Atlantic.

	Freak Emporium - Porcupine Tree
		Porcupine Tree's second album from 1993 is certainly the band's space rock classic, laced with dark experimental atmospherics it features gems such as "Burning Sky" the title track and "Always Never".
		Porcupine Tree's 4th studio album from '96 is still regarded by many as their best release.

	Porcupine Tree: Cinematic catharsis
		Although Porcupine Tree is the main focus of 2005 for Wilson, he’s also committed to raising the profile of Blackfield, a duo project with Israeli musician Aviv Geffen.
		Porcupine Tree is closer to a traditional songwriting approach of sitting down at a piano or guitar with some lyrical themes to work with.
		Occasionally, Porcupine Tree will turn in a three-minute pop song, but at the end of the day, the band is more about the horizontal complexity of the music and a larger musical journey.

		PORCUPINE TREE are incredibly hard to describe because their music doesn't fit into any one genre.
		It says "Porcupine Tree have managed to defy genres and blend together numerous ambient, rock and avant-garde styles to create a musical landscape that is both refreshing and compulsively seductive".
		PORCUPINE TREE's eighth studio album, "Deadwing", was released in March 2005 by Lava Records / Warner Music.

	Ink 19 :: Porcupine Tree (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		For those unfamiliar with this bizarrely-named group, Porcupine Tree is an English group (as if their name didn't give that away already!) specializing in melodic guitar- and synth-based songs with strong vocals.
		With In Absentia, Porcupine Tree are attempting to make fans of middle America with their unique blend of progressive rock and power pop with a major dose of psychedelia.
		Porcupine Tree was originally a one-man solo project of Steven Wilson, releasing two cassette-only recordings on the fledgling UK-based label Delerium.

	Porcupine Tree: Shadows and light
		Porcupine Tree began in 1987 as a home studio solo project for Wilson, a multi-instrumentalist, composer, vocalist and producer.
		I think the older Porcupine Tree fans that come from the mid-‘90s tend to be quietly sitting on the sides or in the balcony.
		Porcupine Tree make a record every two years now, but between every Porcupine Tree record, there will be things like singles, EPs, demos, outtakes and live recordings which get added to the discography.

	Porcupine Tree - Pandora Internet Radio
		Up the Downstair, Porcupine Tree's next full album, found Wilson coming fully into his own, creating a majestic, sweeping album that took the prog inspirations of the past fully into a realm of mysterious hush and beauty as much as full-on rock charge.
		Porcupine Tree continued to tour and plan ahead for both new recordings and reissues of older, rarer material, the first of which surfaced in May of 2001, titled Recordings.
		Porcupine Tree did some sporadic touring in summer 2006 before fall dates were completed around the U.K., Europe, and the United States.

	Concert Review: Porcupine Tree - Live At The State Theatre, Falls Church, Virginia
		Porcupine Tree easily fall into the latter category - able to expertly reproduce their dense song arrangements, which can move fluidly between gentle, hypnotic soundscapes, and progressive metal assaults, without ever loosing any of the subtle nuances that make them so amazing.
		Porcupine Tree are currently in the middle of a short world tour that has already taken them through much of Europe, currently has them in the United States, and will eventually take them to Japan next month.
		At about 9:15 pm, Porcupine Tree took the stage and dived straight into the first of their new offerings - a very dark and heavy number that was propelled by a monstrous bass groove.

		Porcupine Tree is unquestionably one of the most difficult-to-categorize and innovative bands working today.
		Porcupine Tree was founded as a self-indulgent creative outlet for Wilson, and the first major release was ‘On the Sunday of Life...’ in 1992, an album of psychedelia and studio experiments which bears little relation to the band's current sound.
		In late 1993, the solo project became a band, as Colin Edwin (bass), Chris Maitland (drums), and Richard Barbieri (keyboards) were recruited to enable Porcupine Tree to perform live.

	PORCUPINE TREE: In Absentia (Lava)

	PORCUPINE TREE Deadwing reviews and MP3
		Porcupine Tree has been on fire ever since The Sky Moves Sideways, and ten years after what could be regarded as their breakthrough, they haven't released a bad album since.
		If you like Porcupine Tree's music, and if you appreciate their talent of songwriting and ability, then this combination should not let you down, regardless of what genre is slapped onto it.
		Porcupine Tree is not a copy of older prog band (thank you very much for that!!).

	Interview: Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree)
		Porcupine Tree it was a very brave thing for them to do.
		But I also believe at the same time that PORCUPINE TREE is not the kind of band the audience would drift away from over a two or three year period.
		Editor's Note: The pictures were taken at a Porcupine Tree signing at Vintage Vinyl in Fords, NJ on May 14th, 2005.

		Porcupine Tree will release their eighth studio album 'Deadwing', on April 4 through Lava/Atlantic Records, the follow-up to their 2002 Lava debut 'In Absentia'.
		The album, which was recorded at various studios in the UK, highlights Porcupine Tree’s enigmatic tendencies: their mastery of various shades and tempos spanning the musical spectrum.
		Twelve years and with 400,000 plus album sales under their belt, Porcupine Tree is far more impressive than the non-existent group once imagined.

	Music DVD Review: Porcupine Tree - Arriving Somewhere...
		Porcupine Tree incorporates some fascinating video imagery during most of their songs, but you never really get to experience it fully during any of the performances.
		Porcupine Tree have a knack for harmoniously blending these monstrous metallic riffs with some of the most beautiful, catchy melodies you will ever hear, and "Blackest Eyes" is one of their finest examples.
		Before seeing Porcupine Tree live, I doubted whether they would be able to effectively reproduce all of the lush acoustic layers, harmony vocals, and intricate nuances of a song like "Trains", but this performance demonstrates how they have actually improved upon the original.

	Porcupine Tree CD Shop
		In Absentia, their Lava Records debut, is the latest fruit of Porcupine Tree mainstay Steven Wilson's obsession with progressive rock, a mania that dates to the late-1980s when the "band" was little more than a fantasy, though one with a remarkably imaginative--if entirely fictional--history and bio.
		Stars Die is a 2CD compilation spanning Porcupine Tree's stint with Delirium Records between 1991 and 1997 and consists of the best album tracks and singles as well as previously unheard rarities.
		Porcupine Tree began life in as a one-man vehicle for multi-instrumentalist Steven Wilson, eventually morphing into a full band line-up.
