'Fear Of A Blank Planet' was an ambitious 50 minute piece of music made of 6 tracks that flow together to create a cohesive whole, the British art-rockers Porcupine Tree created a concept album based on the Bret Easton Ellis novel 'Lunar Park', with lyrics that addressed how the adolescent protagonist battled his bipolar and attention-deficit disorders with a regimen of prescription drugs and Internet overstimulation. The music used sprawling vocal melodies, atmospheric guitars and drums that tumbled through chaotic passages to echo the main character's manic-depressive states. 'Fear Of A Blank Planet' features guest appearances from Robert Fripp (King Crimson) , Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson and ex-Japan keyboardist Richard Barbieri. Kscope will release the 2012 Steven Wilson remastered edition of the album as CD presented in Mediabook packaging complete with a 24-page booklet containing lyrics and additional artwork.

"a dramatic, wide-screen, expertly executed, genuinely thrilling rock record" Q Magazine "an aggressively modern merger of Rush's arena art rock, U.K. prog classicism —especially Pink Floyd and King Crimson — and the post-grunge vengeance of Tool" Rolling Stone "Porcupine Tree are at the height of their powers" Sound and Vision
