Porcupine Tree – Fear of a Blank Planet (Remastered Deluxe Edition) (2024) Review: Transmission present the definitive edition of Porcupine Tree’s Grammy-nominated 2007 album Fear of a Blank Planet. With a 112-page hardback book, five CD’s including remasters of the album & ‘Nil Recurring’ mini album, approximately 55 minutes of previously unreleased demos, an early live performance of a still work in progress version of the album, as well as BBC & instore session recordings, this is the most complete collection of the album & related material to date. Originally released in 2007, ‘Fear Of A Blank Planet’ was Porcupine Tree’s ninth studio album & both band & fans alike consider it to be a high point in their catalogue. Their biggest selling album at the time, it was the band’s first album to break into the Billboard Top 100 in the USA as well as charting significantly across Europe, earning them a Grammy nomination in the process. The album includes guest appearances from Robert Fripp (King Crimson) & Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson & featured in Rolling Stone Magazine’s Greatest Prog Albums Of All Time as well as being named Classic Rock’s Album of the Year in 2007. A concept album inspired by the Bret Easton Ellis novel “Lunar Park”, Fear Of A Blank Planet’s lyrics address how the adolescent protagonist battles his terminal boredom & attention-deficit disorders with a regimen of prescription drugs, TV, computer gaming, mindless violence, empty sex & self-harm. Following the release of ‘Fear Of A Blank Planet’ in 2007, Porcupine Tree solidified their reputation as one of the rock’s most celebrated bands with their 2009 release ‘The Incident’ garnering critical acclaim & earning the band another Grammy nomination. After a significant hiatus while members moved on to other projects, 2022’s highly anticipated return with ‘Closure/Continuation’ demonstrated the band’s unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of their sound. This ‘Fear Of A Blank Planet’ Transmission box set offers fans an unparalleled experience, revisiting the album with new, previously unreleased content & 2024 remastered audio. — burningshed Album List: CD 1: remaster of ‘Fear Of A Blank Planet. 01-Fear Of A Blank Planet (Fear Of A Blank Planet 2024 Remaster) 02-My Ashes (Fear Of A Blank Planet 2024 Remaster) 03-Anesthetize (Fear Of A Blank Planet 2024 Remaster) 04-Sentimental (Fear Of A Blank Planet 2024 Remaster) 05-Way Out Of Here (Fear Of A Blank Planet 2024 Remaster) 06-Sleep Together (Fear Of A Blank Planet 2024 Remaster) CD 2: remaster of ‘Nil Recurring’ EP. 01-Nil Recurring (Nil Recurring 2024 Remaster) 02-Normal (Nil Recurring 2024 Remaster) 03-Cheating The Polygraph (Nil Recurring 2024 Remaster) 04-What Happens Now (Nil Recurring 2024 Remaster) 05-Fear Of A Blank Planet (Tour Live intro) (Nil Recurring 2024 Remaster) CD 3: Approx 55 minutes of previously unreleased demos by both band & Steven Wilson, offering a rare insight into the creative process for the album, including 2 tracks not recorded for the final album. 01-Fear Of A Blank Planet (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 02-My Ashes (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 03-Anesthetize (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 04-Sentimental (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 05-Cheating The Polygraph (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 06-Sleep Together (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 07-Always Recurring (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) 08-Hey Sleeper (2006-07 Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson Demos) CD 4: A live recording of a work-in-progress version of the album made at The Garage, Saarbrucken on 23rd September 2006, while the band were still refining & developing the material.
