I don't know what this means, end of the hiatus with a new album? remix of their whole catalogue in Dolby Atmos? bsides?
Who knows.
But what's a fact is that PT has a new label (Sony instead of Kscope).
As far as I recall Steven Wilson posted back last year or earlier this year that since he was not touring to promote The Future Bites he planned to write and record two more studio albums following the same formula, which means a different approach (different genre to their previous work).

I'm quite stoked to whatever news this is (except for vinyl releases), because it has already been 12 years since their last album The Incident.

I have it on good authority from earlier this year that there is a new album already recorded to be supported with a tour next year. Unfortunately without Colin - I read rumours that he & SW fell out after the final PT Royal Albert Hall gig. Interestingly, there was a new company registered at Companies House earlier this year called Porcupine 3 Ltd with SW, Gavin & Richard as the 3 directors....no Colin

If this theory is true, who will be the new bass player? Nick Beggs? I love the guy's playing, but don't know if he'd be a good fit for PT

The only think I can say is "?"

No idea I'm afraid

Someone reversed it and sped it up to get this:



I guess there are two clips and he posted a new vid today experimenting with them:



Still not enough to say much.

sounds like a new song, to me, though

 

[Ranasakawa]

Hopefully not a pop version of Porcupine Tree. I am not a fan of Steven Wilson's recent music

Dayum - some new Porcupine Tree!!!??? If true, I’m there all day and all night. Loved Edwin Colin and a real bummer if he’s not involved but I’ll take any Porc I can get!

That's unfortunate...that they will go on without Collin.

Me too!

PT more than survived the change from Maitland to Harrison on drums, and I suspect that with the variety of styles PT has done in the past transitioning to a different bass player may be even easier (though I do love Colin's rock-solid-no-flash style). Back with GfD I wan't really a Beggs fan but he may be a really great choice for bridging PT and SW solo into a fresh new era for PT that has continuity from the solo years.

Vocal on the reversed/sped up sample does not sound like Wilson. Voice does sound familiar, but I can't place it from such a short sample.

Sounds like his trademark TFB falsetto right at the end though!!!

Single on monday.

 

[fcormier]

Someone found this also

 

[Mr. Afternoon]

I am so very extremely ready for this.

 

[alansanchez86]

I guess it's a given that this will be mixed in Atmos, which makes the hype bigger.

This is a touring agency!
So there will be a PT Tour

That high harmony at the very end of the clip sounds more like John Wesley than SW to me...
