Porcupine Tree frontman Steven Wilson has shared an update in a series of tweets, found here. The message is below.

Wilson: "Happy new year to you all! First and foremost a big thank you to everyone that enjoyed the Porcupine Tree Closure/Continuation album / shows, and my book, Limited Edition Of One, during the past year.

Coming in 2023 will be my new album, a 10 track, 65 minute musical journey that's kinda hard to describe, but suffice to say it's different again, not to mention totally pretentious (in a good way!). It will be released by Virgin Music UK, more news soon.

Meanwhile, the (likely final) PorcupineTree shows will be a handful of festival appearances over the summer, check the band's channels for more info.

Lots more exciting stuff (at least to me) happening, but for now I'll leave you with my very best wishes for the year ahead, I hope it will be a wonderful one for you."

“Harridan” lyric video:

One of the most forward-thinking, genre-defying rock bands of any era, Porcupine Tree was founded in 1987 by renowned musician/producer Steven Wilson as an outlet for the experimental recordings he was making outside of his acclaimed post-rock duo, No-Man. With the addition of keyboard player Richard Barbieri and drummer Gavin Harrison, Porcupine Tree soon evolved into a proper band, releasing 10 studio albums between 1992 and 2009. Each new release saw Porcupine Tree exploring new musical ideas, their expansive music shifting from pastoral psychedelic rock and ambient electronic soundscapes to experimental pop and propulsive metal. Later releases like 2007’s Grammy Award-nominated Fear Of A Blank Planet and 2009’s The Incident - the band’s biggest seller thus far, reaching the top 25 in both the US and the UK - saw Porcupine Tree effortlessly melding distinctive genres to create a groundbreaking musical universe all their own.

Recorded quietly and sporadically over the last decade and finished during a period when touring was curtailed in 2020/21, Closure/Continuation marks the most collaborative album of Porcupine Tree’s highly lauded career. From its restless, often troubled lyrics to its gorgeous cyclonic sound, the album stands tall as a stunning and timely return of rock’s most consistently innovative and influential bands, an album of forward-thinking music fed through myriad electronic filters, equal parts squalling noise and soaring, melancholy melody.
