In Absentia album Product Description



There's a breed of (post-1980s) bands with the same degree of grand rock experimentalism as Pink Floyd and Yes, who simultaneously adhere to the concept of concise songwriting. Porcupine Tree is one such band--their sound is a balance of lush ambient textures, charming vocal harmonies, rock & roll directness, and acoustically- and electronically-generated sounds. Their debut IN ABSENTIA shows all these elements in place, rich with the likely possibility of them becoming a contemporary counterpart to Pink Floyd. UK edition of the progressive rock act's 2002 album includes a bonus CD with three tracks, 'Drown With Me', 'Chloroform' & 'Strip The Soul' (Video Edit). Lava/Atlantic.2002. This edition contains three bonus tracks. Recorded at Avatar Studio, New York, New York between March & April 2002. Porcupine Tree: Richard Barbieri, Colin Edwin, Gavin Harrison, Steven Wilson. Personnel: John Wesley (vocals, guitar, background vocals); Julian Leaper, Perry Mason, Warren Zielinski, Mark Berrow, Katherine Shave, David Woodcock, Rebecca Hirsch, Paul Willey, Ben Cruft, Boguslaw Kostecki, Rita Manning, Everton Nelson, Johnathan Rees, Gavyn Wright, Jackie Shave (violin); Gustav Clarkson, Peter Lale, Kate Musker, Bruce White (viola); Tony Pleeth, David Daniels , Martin Loveday (cello); Chris Laurence, Mary Scully (double bass).   ...See Full Description

Definitely worth the extra $$$
If I had known that the bonus tracks Drown With Me and Chloroform were going to be so good, I would have bought this version of this CD. The whole album is good, I even bought the DVD-A (which I noticed isn't sold on here anymore--it also contains the two tracks this CD has plus the track Futile). I think it was definitely worth the extra money--the Euro releases almost always have bonus material that we don't get in the US so if you are a die hard PT fan, get this before it too goes out of print.
