Description

Prepare to embark on a thrilling audio journey. In turns haunting, unnerving, desolate, hypnotic, and euphoric, the centre-piece of The Incident is the title track a stunning 55-minute musical statement, described by vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Steven Wilson as a slightly surreal song cycle about beginnings and endings and the sense that after this, things will never be the same again. The seeds of the idea that led to The Incident came to he became caught up in a motorway traffic jam whilst driving past a road accident and muse on the moments that seem small at the time but ultimately shape your destiny. Deep themes for a band that will take you beyond the outer limits.

Comments about ROADRUNNER Porcupine Tree - Incident:

This is probably the most dissapointing PT album i've listened to (probably cause I had high expectations).
It has some good songs, but, I don't know... it's hard to explain why it doesn't "click" with me. Some people love it, some hate it, then you have fence sitters like myself.
I will reserve my final judgement, however, untill I see a live performance (on DVD) of it. People who have the same opinion as me say its a stunner live. We'll see.

7.5/10

Service and delivery comments:

-Quick delivery
-The case was a little damaged, and cdwow couldn't replace it without replacing the whole product (which I didn't want to do).
