Once more, they’re completely different. I believe a bit like my solo profession, Porcupine Tree has reached some extent the place we do not wish to attempt to do something besides be ourselves. We do not wish to fear about what folks count on of us—not that we ever did.
“We’re having fun with the method. I like working with Gavin Harrison and Richard Barbieri. And the plain factor for me now’s that as a result of the solo profession is established, I am rather more capable of be a part of a democratic band in a approach I wasn’t again within the day. I used to really feel the necessity to management it extra. Now, I do not. In reality, I relish the thought of giving up management and maybe not getting my very own approach on a regular basis. I am open to not essentially doing issues the way in which I’d have accomplished them myself.

“I have been speaking about doing a Porcupine Tree reside field set, as a result of just about each present we performed was recorded. However that might be a large job to compile 12-15 reveals that signify every section of the band in the absolute best gentle. It might be three-to-four months’ work. When am I going to try this? I believe it is one thing I’ll get to ultimately, however it could be at a time once I take a step again from making new work. And as you see, that is not taking place proper now.”
