Recordings!
 That's great. I've been eager to run across the original for under $100, but I haven't, so this is good news! I would still like to find the original, though...
I heard about the Pendulum collaboration, but who are they?

I'll be getting this, as I don't own Recordings yet. Happy about this news!
 It would have been nice to hear it in 5.1, with maybe some Out Absentia tracks or something as a special bonus, though. Also, I'd heard Wilson was on the new Pendulum album. They're pretty big, aren't they? That's pretty cool. Any extra exposure for SW's talents is a good thing, in my book!

Kind of dissapointed with the reissue - I'd love to hear it in 5.1, and since I already have the original CD, I don't have any reason to get that one.

For all you PT fans that do not own a copy of Recordings (mine is #18153), this was just posted on the PT site:
http://www.porcupinetree.com/ Porcupine Tree's Recordings will be reissued on 6th September on KScope - a straight reissue, there won't be any bonus tracks or remastering. Edited by rushaholic - May 23 2010 at 16:21 |

Steven Wilson's has colaborated with Aussie Drum & Bass/Rockers Pendulum on one track of their new album (released tomorrow):
this is the official trailer - full versions exist on youtube, but they are "unofficial" so I won't link them here.

^Excellent! I've been looking forward to the DVD release of this for a long while. The 20 minute trailer on the Insurgentes DVDA piqued my interest to see the rest of it, too.

Also, about the Insurgentes DVD release:
The DVD version of the Insurgentes film directed by Lasse Hoile is currently scheduled for release on 27th September as a 2 DVD set on KScope, with a whole raft of extras on the second disc, including an audio section with more songs from the album sessions. More news nearer to the release date.... From SWHQ. Can't wait for that one; the excerpts on the Insurgentes album DVD piqued my interest, gonna be good to see the whole thing. |

^The only difference between a Bluray and a DVD is the amount of info it can hold - They both come from the same source material (the original recordings) which is better quality than both DVD's and Blurays, but because Blurays can hold more information, the data that is put on a Bluray has to be compressed significantly less, so the picture/sound and reading speed is much, much faster.
I'm guessing the problem is that Bluray's are at least a bit slower to press than standard DVD's, and also that there's hardly any Bluray pressing facilities compared to the amount of DVD presses because it's still a relatively new format. Not sure why it's taking this long though - I'm guessing the order just got through/the pressing started a few days late, so that the whole thing got out of order. Just a one day difference would add a few days on either end, due to changing shipping and receiving dates, getting new packaging and postage schedules ready, etc... I'm still just a little annoyed that BS didn't have the Special Editions even on hand when we ordered over a month ago... |

^Bah!
I suspect the delay is due to the Blu Ray discs not being finished yet. Clearly the packaging and DVDs had been finalised. But still, how hard is it to stick the footage on a Blu Ray? I'm not an expert, but do they have to do a ton of technological jiggery pokery to transfer the footage to high-def?

That is amazing. I did the same thing with Coheed's Neverender. I'm just glad they didn't put behind the scenes footage in the Sp. Ed., because I bought the reg edition.
I'm glad you got to see it and I can't wait until I do..in a few days hopefully.

LOL. I relented. Went into JB Hi Fi the other day, and what should I see on the shelf? The standard edition of Anesthetize, already out?
 And only 25 smackers! Without even thinking, I picked it up and bought it! I really am an impatient PT fanboy!  So it looks like I have the standard, and grey editions! Watched it as soon as I got home that evening. Gotta tell you, its fabulous! The sound and picture quality is top notch, the setlist is great. The only shame really is that the standard DVD doesn't have any extra features, just the concert footage. The Signify songs all sound great live. Dark Matter is a particular highlight of the gig.

Yup, it appears that some people have received the Standard Edition already:
Found that on the PTF. |
