Porcupine Tree

Gavin and 05Ric's second collaboration - picking up from where "Drop" left off. 10 songs featuring Ric's amazing extended range bass and haunting vocals - along with Gavin's mind bending rhythmic designs and unusual expressions on the drums.

Porcupine Tree bass player Colin Edwin's first release as a solo performer, a heterogeneous collection of both instrumentals and spoken word performances set to music. "Third Vessel"¯ combines the strands of many influences into a cohesive "sound journey"¯ weaving in the themes of communication, spirituality and dreamlike states.

Now repressed as a double disc including the full length Andrew Liles reconstruction, which SW described as being "even creepier than the original!", this is the third full length album by SW's Bass Communion project and is a one hour work divided into 5 distinct sections. The album is inspired by alleged tape recordings of the dead communicating with the living world, paranormal research most famously practised by scientist Konstantine Raudive in the 1970's. This is a spectral and brooding album, rich with dark clouds of sound, beautiful textures, creepy drones and eerie crackling. It is housed in a beautiful Japanese style thick card gatefold mini LP sleeve. SW considers this to be one of the finest recordings he has ever made.

Variously described as 'lyrically sensitive and musically dynamic' and as being 'the final flesh on the acoustic bones of his previous releases', Shiver, John Wesley's fifth studio album, amply demonstrates how John's work has matured over the course of the last decade.

Mixed by Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson, Shiver's guitar-driven acoustic and electric songs draw from a diversity of inspirations including alternative, progressive, classic rock and folk styles. Perhaps the finest and most well-rounded release so far in John's impressive career.
