Porcupine Tree - The Incident

Special Edition is limited to 2,000 copies worldwide. This incorporates the two discs in separate picture sleeves, a superb 48-page, 12-inch book, and all of that housed in a custom printed PVC slipcase.

The Incident - like the elaborate and conceptual previous record Fear Of A Blank Planet - takes the listener on a thrilling audio journey, in turns haunting, desolate, hypnotic and euphoric, its centerpiece is the title track - a stunning 55-minute musical statement that breaks down into 14 separate and often diverse (through interlinked) vignettes. The Incident is not the kind of album that will be fully absorbed in a single sitting - repeated listening will reveal hidden detail. Pushed for a sufficient description singer/guitarist/songwriter Steven Wilson calls The Incident "a slightly surreal song cycle about beginnings and endings and the sense that 'after this, things will never be the same again.'"
