Album Notes & Community Reviews
Porcupine Tree's final album before a long hiatus is a single 55-minute song cycle about a car accident. 'The Incident' blends heavy metal riffs with electronic textures and acoustic ballads. It is a dark, cohesive conceptual piece that examines the role of chance in our lives.
