KSCOPE REISSUE PORCUPINE TREE'S SECOND STUDIO ALBUM UP THE DOWNSTAIR REMASTERED BY STEVEN WILSON

"the spiritual heirs to Pink Floyd, the Tree offer a magical kaleidoscope of elegant rock pleasure, showcasing understated rhythm, grand synth washes and sweet, punchy electric guitar" Record Collector

Porcupine Tree, led by visionary musician Steven Wilson, released Up The Downstair in 1993 as an album that took British psychedelic and progressive rock in to the modern era, dropping the indulgent nature of the genres for forceful, emotive music.

Following the now sold-out first box set of Porcupine Tree's Delerium Years, and the near sold-out second box set, Kscope are re-releasing the band's records from the era, including Up The Downstair. This version uses real drums (played by Gavin Harrison) in place of the original sampled drums, and features the tracks remastered by Steven Wilson in 2016 with more naturalistic dynamics and EQ - remasters previously only available on vinyl.

I absolutely LOVE Dark Matter and think it is one of PT's best early tracks that holds up to even their best work in the early 2000s, and this particular live performance is sublime! kilimajaro
