At the highfidelityreview.com website there is an interesting interview with Steven Wilson, and there is a very extensive review of the DVD audio disk of In Absentia. I now have said disk, and I must say that I agree with the reviewer--In Absentia may be one of the new benchmarks in surround sound audio. The only drawback is that the recording is a 24 bit/48K Protools project. Therefore, there is a limit to the recording's ultimate resolution. Still, I think it sounds grand--better than the CD. At times, the surround mix is truly enveloping.

As for the interview, it appears that Porcupine Tree are in the process of recording a new CD. They have around eighteen tunes written and ready to be put to tape (or hard drive).

Thanks for the heads up. I'm not a surround guy, but I am very pleased to hear about a new album.

After striking out at Best Buy, I found my copy at Media Play. It was a little expensive, but I'm not complaining. I know you can purchase the disk at the Porcupine Tree website. You may also want to check out Borders. They seem to get some things that are not quite mainstream.

You know, that's strange that Amazon doesn't have it. I could have sworn that I saw it on there a few days ago.
