Release type: Reissued Indie Exclusive 180 Gram 4LP Vinyl Box Set

Octane Twisted on vinyl for the first time across 7 sides in a 4LP box set with a new etching from long term designer Carl Glover. Regarded as one of the most impressive experimental/progressive/psychedelic rock bands to emerge from the UK since it's inception in 1991, Porcupine Tree enjoyed a successful recording career spanning over 15 years. The release of 'The Incident' in 2009 was followed with a lengthy tour before the band entered a hiatus, giving band members Steven Wilson, Richard Barbieri, Colin Edwin & Gavin Harrison time to work on their various solo careers and other collaborations. Octane Twisted features The Incident album in it's entirety, recorded in Chicago. The end of the album contains 5 classic PT tracks also recorded in Chicago along with 3 highlights from the band's landmark show at Royal Albert Hall. Octane Twisted really captures the atmosphere and energy of a Porcupine Tree live concert experience. Recorded at a time when the band had the set well 'played in', you can hear the interaction between the band members as well as the audience as they navigate their way through The Incident and many other older songs too.
