Untitled

Fear of a Blank Planet (also Transmission 6.1) is the ninth studio album by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree which was released on April 16, 2007 in the UK and Europe, and on April 24, 2007 in the United States. Steven Wilson has mentioned that the album's title is a direct reference to the 1990's Public Enemy album, Fear of a Black Planet. He explained that race relations were a major issue when it was released and he sees "coming to terms with information technology and...the 21st century" as a modern issue[1].

The album was written in Tel Aviv and London between January and July 2006. The promotion of the record included a premiere performance of the songs during the shows of the Arriving Somewhere DVD tour between September and November 2006[2], and a series of listening parties at New York's Legacy Studios[3], and London's Abbey Road Studios[4] during January 2007. The concept of Fear of a Blank Planet was continued later the same year with the Nil Recurring EP and expanded thereafter in the first Wilson's solo album, Insurgentes.

Even though it doesn't include any singles, Fear of a Blank Planet charted in almost all European countries and entered the U.S. Billboard 200 at #59. Allmusic, which gave the album a 4.5 out of 5 score, assures that "While there is no "radio single" on the disc most songs transcend their complex structure and feel as provocative as any traditional rock tune"[5]. The album was highly acclaimed by the critics and gained the status of "Album of the Year" in many magazines and websites.

Premiere and release

Seven months prior to the release of the album, all the songs debuted live during the tour in support of the Arriving Somewhere DVD that ran from September 13 to November 29, 2006, though their titles were not revealed at the time. People attending the concerts could hear 50 minutes of brand new music during the first half of the shows[6]. The only song not included in the set list was "Way Out of Here" since it had not been written yet. The song that later would be titled "Cheating The Polygraph" was then placed instead.

In January 12, 2007, Robert Fripp from King Crimson wrote in his blog that he contributed on a track called "Nil Recurring", during the Fear of a Blank Planet recording sessions[7]. A few days after, the mixing and recording processes was finished, so Wilson unveiled the 5.1 mix edition of the album at two listening parties at New York's Legacy Studios[3], and London's Abbey Road Studios[4], where the official track list was finally unveiled; there was a third pre-release listening party without the prescence of Steven Wilson in the Club Phoenix of Brisbane later in April 14, organised by OzProg.com along with Roadrunner Records[8]. A medley of the album tracks was posted to the band's MySpace page and the Fear of a Blank Planet microsite in February 21. Then in March 6, the title track was released in the US iTunes Store as a bonus track with Blackfield II, the second album from Wilson's side-project, Blackfield. On April 12, the CD came out in parts of Europe four days earlier than intended, and was soon leaked onto the internet[9].

In April 16, the same day as the European release date of the album, the music video for the title track debuted on the Porcupine Tree's MySpace, though it was temporarily removed a day later in the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre due to the band finding the content, namely children wielding guns, distasteful at the present. Wilson expressed his opinion about the tragedy:

"Unfortunately this whole culture we live in promotes this idea that if you’re somehow insignificant then you’re worthless. If you’re somehow not successful, if you’re not popular, if you’re not famous, if you’re not a celebrity, you are somehow worthless. And the only way to become famous if you are that piece of shit on someone’s shoe is to go into a school and blow 25 of your classmates away. Instant fame! That’s fucked up. That’s what’s wrong with the world right now."[10]

Fans were encouraged to purchase the album from record stores rather than from the Burning Shed online store, in order to have an impact in the charts.

In April 25, the video was launched on the Fear of a Blank Planet microsite to view in high resolution; though since October the same year, it has been replaced by the projection used for the live performance of "Sleep Together". The video is now included as a bonus along with the 17-minute film for "Anesthetize" on the DVD-A version of Fear of a Blank Planet.

In June 4, the song "Sentimental" was NPR's "Song Of The Day"[11].

In August 6, on their official website, Porcupine Tree announced a new EP was going to be released on September 17 the same year named Nil Recurring, featuring four tracks (just under 30 minutes of music) that were written during the Fear of a Blank Planet sessions, including the title track featuring Robert Fripp on guitar, and "Cheating the Polygraph".

Tour of a Blank Planet

In April 18, 2007, two days after the European release of the album, the band embarked on an extensive tour that lasted to the end of the year, with a short break during August and September resuming in October. During the first run of shows, the band played all of the album either in one go, or spread throughout the set. For the second run of shows (after the release of Nil Recurring) this was stopped. Once again, Lasse Hoile worked with the band in creating a video to be projected accompanying the performance of the whole album.

Starting in Glasgow, the tour led them through many major international music festivals such as the twins Hurricane Festival and Southside Festival in Germany, the Download Festival at Donnington Park, the Voodoo Music Experience of New Orleans, and the Ilosaarirock Festival in Finland (their first show ever in this country). Support acts included Pure Reason Revolution[12], Amplifier[13] and Absynthe Minded[14] across Europe, and 3 for the US[15]. The second leg started in October in North America. Head>>Fake (only in New York City)[16] and 3 (rest of the US and Canada)[17][18] were the supporting bands during October; this stretch of the tour included their first performance ever in Mexico at the Teatro Metropolitan of Mexico City[19]. Alternative rock band Anathema joined them on tour as from November as a support for the European gigs[20] that lasted until December (except for Finland were Hidria Spacefolk opened)[21]. Along 2007, they played 92 dates in total.

The tour has continued in April, 2008, with their first appearance ever in Australia, where they played three consecutive dates in April 25, 26 and 27 in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane respectively. They performed at the Dutch Pinkpop Festival in May 30, the Rocksound Festival of Switzerland in June 6, the Austrian Nova Rock Festival in June 13, the Hellfest Summer Open Air in France in June 21 and the Finnish Ruisrock in July 4, 2008. Shortly after they played for the first time in Russia, in July 6 at the B1 Club of Moscow. Thereafter in October the band will start a brief European tour, during which a second official DVD will be shot. The filming will take place in October 15 and 16, in the Netherlands at the 013 Tilburg venue[22]. This leg will include their first performance ever as headliners in Portugal, and will be the last of the Fear of a Blank Planet tour. Oceansize will open for the UK shows.

Writing and recording

Steven Wilson started writing the album in early 2006, in Tel Aviv, while he was recording the second Blackfield album. In the meantime, Richard Barbieri wrote most of the music for the song "My Ashes". The Blackfield album was finished in June so Wilson travelled back to London and met the other band members to work on the material he had been writing. These sessions took place between July and August and produced a good number of songs from which just six were picked for the record[23].

Porcupine Tree's first DVD ever, titled Arriving Somewhere, was released in August, the same year, so the band started a short tour in September to promote it during which the six new songs selected for the forthcoming album were performed at the first half of the shows[2]. Along the tour, that lasted until November, the band began recording the album; eventually rejecting the song "Cheating the Polygraph", since they felt it was somewhat weak when compared to the other five of the live set list, and writing a totally new song called "Way Out of Here" to replace it[24]. "Way Out of Here" was a collaboration between all band members and resulted in the only full-band composition of the record. They contacted King Crimson's guitarist Robert Fripp since he has toured with them many times before, so he provided some soundscapes to the song[9] and lead guitar for the track "Nil Recurring", an instrumental song not included in the album but later released in the EP of the same name along with "Cheating the Polygraph".

Around the time of the recording, Wilson read an interview with Rush's guitarist Alex Lifeson in Classic Rock magazine, where he admitted being a big Porcupine Tree fan, so he quickly got in touch with Alex and asked if he would like to be on the album, he was pleased to contribute[9]. Wilson wrote a section of the song "Anesthetize" thought for Alex Lifeson to play a solo on it. Alex recorded the solo and sent it to Wilson.

The album recording process was finished in December of the same year[23]. In January 2007 it was revealed that the album title would be Fear of a Blank Planet[4].

Concept

The concept of the album was heavily influenced by Bret Easton Ellis' novel Lunar Park[25]. The novel is told from the perspective of a father, who bears the name of the novel's author himself, whereas the album is mostly from his son's perspective, a ten-year-old kid named Robby[26]. Many of the lyrics for Fear of a Blank Planet are lifted directly from the novel, particularly "My Ashes", which is an homage to the last chapter, in which the ashes of Bret's father are scattered and cover the memories of his life.

The lyrics deal with two typical neurobehavioural developmental disorders affecting teenagers in the 21st Century: bipolar disorder and attention deficit disorder, and also with other common behaviour tendencies on youth like escapism through prescription drugs, social alienation caused by technology, and the feeling of vacuity product of information overload in the mass media. In an interview with Revolver magazine, Wilson described the main character of the story as "...this kind of terminally bored kid, anywhere between 10 and 15 years old, who spends all his daylight hours in his bedroom with the curtains closed, playing on his PlayStation, listening to his iPod, texting his friends on his cell phone, looking at hardcore pornography on the Internet, downloading music, films, news, violence..."[27]

Structure

While its predecessor, Deadwing, consisted of nine separate tracks which lyrics related a story, without any thematic continuity present in the music, the songs on Fear of a Blank Planet seem to have a connection not just between the lyrics but also musically, since every one flows into the next one, building, altogether, a single fifty-minute piece of music[28]. Wilson said the idea was to make an album that could be gone through at one listen, in opposition to some bands' tendency to make very long records, often including filler tracks, making difficult to keep the listener concentrated[27]. He described Fear of a Blank Planet as an approach to the '70s records, whose moderate length prevented the listener from losing focus on the concept:

"It was very much conceived in the way bands used to conceive of records in the '70s, where you've got two sides of vinyl, and you can lay down a piece of music which is around the 50-minute mark, which plays in a continuous way, and deals with the same subject matter, and tried to kind of immerse you in a world for that time. That's always been the Porcupine Tree way, but we've definitely taken it to the next level."[29]

The album is 50:48 in length and has six songs, with a nearly eighteen-minute centerpiece.

Reception

Critical reception

Critical reception to the album was mostly positive, regarded as "a dramatic, wide-screen, expertly executed, even genuinely thrilling rock record worthy of an audience way beyond nu-prog's regular constituency" by Q Magazine[30]. David Fricke from Rolling Stone perceives that Porcupine Tree has evolved into "an aggressively modern merger of Rush’s arena art rock, U.K. prog classicism —especially Pink Floyd’s eulogies to madness and King Crimson’s angular majesty— and the post-grunge vengeance of Tool."[31] Sound and Vision praised that "Porcupine Tree is at the height of its powers"[32] and voted it #3 of the "Top 10 CDs of 2007"[33]. Decibel lauded: "Porcupine Tree prove they can play with the best of ’em"[34]. The Phoenix newspaper stated "Fear of a Blank Planet is not only their most vintage-sounding album, it’s also their best."[35] Jim DeRogatis at the Chicago Sun-Times raved that "Anyone who hopes rock will aspire to something more needs to add [this] new concept effort to their list of must-owns ... easily as strong as any of the band's previous eight releases, and the most timely" while Chicago Tribune's Greg Kot declared that "the music is stellar in its serpentine mood-shifting."[36] Revolver magazine adverts: "England’s prog princes return at their most limber and conceptually relevant."[37] PopMatters placed it at #5 of "The Best Metal Albums of 2007"[38]. Dan LeRoy from Alternative Press described it as "as heavy as P-Tree have ever been" but "wistfully, sprawlingly melodic as well-sometimes in the same tune" and concluded that "if Wilson's vision of today's kids as overmedicated, overstimulated robots seems like a blatant appeal to the over-30 crowd, it's still worth setting the Xbox aside to listen"[39]. Reason magazine chose it as one of the "Best Albums of 2007" though they were more severe than other critics about the lyrical content saying that "Lyrically, it's ridiculous" and "if your grandma was theming a prog rock album, it'd come out something like this"[40].

Rankings and sales

With Fear of a Blank Planet, the band broke the selling mark established by Deadwing, reaching for the first time the Top 100 of the Billboard 200, debuting at #59, the European Top 100 Albums where it entered at #21[41], and charting the Top 40 in the UK, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Finland, Norway, Sweden and Poland. It debuted in the Top 10 of Amazon.com's top sellers, and was the #3 seller on Buy.com, and #2 at Newbury Comics. The special edition limited to 10,000 copies was sold out worldwide the same day of its release[42]. The album also ranked very well in many poll-based sites such as Rate Your Music, eventually reaching the #3 of the "Top Albums of 2007"[43]. It climbed to #1 of the "Top Prog Albums of 2007" in Prog Archives[44] and ranked #14 amongst the Top 20 albums of 2007 in Metal Storm webzine[45]. The album received an average rating of 82% on Metacritic, based on reviews from nine different magazines and websites[30].

Awards and nominations

Fear of a Blank Planet won the prestigious "Album of the Year" award for the 2007 Classic Rock magazine awards[46]. This is the second time the band wins this award, the first time was in 2005 with Deadwing[47]. In December 12, 2007, Fear of a Blank Planet received a nomination for a Grammy Award in the "Best Surround Sound Album" category[48].

Gavin Harrison won the Modern Drummer magazine readers' poll for "best progressive drummer of the year" consecutively in 2007 and 2008; the last time he also came second in the "best recorded performance" category for Fear of a Blank Planet[49].
