El lunes, navegando por los sitios que generalmente leo, me encontré con la noticia de que The Incident cuya fecha de lanzamiento es el 14 de septiembre se había filtrado. Me puse a buscarlo y ya le pegué un par de escuchadas, así que pensé en comentar acerca del ultimo trabajo de Porcupine Tree.
The Incident es el décimo álbum de Porcupine Tree. Es un disco doble, en el primer disco se encuentra “The Incident” un una canción de 55 minutos dividida en 14 partes, en el segundo disco se incluyeron 4 canciones que no tienen relación con el concepto tras el primer disco.
Con respecto al concepto, prefiero citar a Steven Wilson:
“There was a sign saying ‘POLICE – INCIDENT’ and everyone was slowing down to rubber neck to see what had happened… Afterwards, it struck me that ‘incident’ is a very detached word for something so destructive and traumatic for the people involved. And then I had the sensation that the spirit of someone that had died in the accident entered into my car and was sitting next to me. “The irony of such a cold expression for such seismic events appealed to me, and I began to pick out other ‘incidents’ reported in the media and news,” continues Wilson. “I wrote about the evacuation of teenage girls from a religious cult in Texas, a family terrorizing its neighbors, a body found floating in a river by some people on a fishing trip, and more. Each song is written in the first person and tries to humanize the detached media reportage.”
A continuación voy a intentar describir el disco canción por canción como lo hice con Fear Of A Blank Planet hace meses.
buenos…
