On the Sunday of Life album Product Description

On the Sunday of Life album by Porcupine Tree was released Nov 10, 2009 on the Kscope label. Porcupine Tree's debut is really one big in-joke, which actually makes for a better reason to record something that pretends to be profoundly deep through and through. On the Sunday of Life songs As released, it doesn't make mention of the tracks' origins as the supposed product of a mysterious cult psych/prog rock band, but the packaging and artwork (even the fonts) would make the Dukes of Stratosphear proud. On the Sunday of Life album Steve Wilson's singing is noticeably higher at points than it would be in later years -- chalk it up to his relative youth or a desire to sound appropriately wispy (or on the lovely "Nine Cats," like David Gilmour). On a sheer technical level, though, Wilson can't be beat. Recording and producing his material solo (outside of a couple of guest appearances) before the big '90s revolution in home recording quality, he easily reaches the depth and reach of bands who could spend many times more to reach the same sound. It really does sound like a full band jamming along to its own muse, not a constructed swathe of overdubs. ...See Full Description

An okay "debutalbum" but a bit spaced out
As Steven Wilson points out in the cover notes (to the remastered version)this album he doesn't consider this as PT's debut album, as it is rather a compilation of tracks from previous cassette releases. Though a bit spaced out at times and heavily influenced by Pink Floyd, it does contain some great tracks, such as the instrumental "Music For The Head", "Nine Cats", "Radioactive Toy" and "It Will Rain For A Million Years"

Floyd influenced and tripped out!!
There some awesome songs, but then there is 'space transmission' and a self destructing turnip. I just don't get it. Good tunes though...
