Porcupine Tree have announced a new live album, CLOSURE/CONTINUATION.LIVE, arriving December 8th on various physical formats including CD, Blu-Ray, DVD, and vinyl.
The massive 21-song, three-hour set was recorded and filmed on November 7th at the 17,000-capacity Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam during the the UK prog rock band’s 2022 tour supporting its comeback album, CLOSURE/CONTINUATION. A live video of “Harridan” from the performance can be streamed now.
Overall, the set is appropriately heavy on material from CLOSURE/CONTINUATION, but also sees the Steven Wilson-led outfit playing career staples such as “Trains,” “Fear of a Blank Planet,” and “Anesthetize.” For more on Porcupine Tree’s 2022 tour, check out our recap of their concert at Radio City Music Hall in New York City last September.
Fans will have multiple configurations to choose from for the physical release of the live album: a 2-CD/2-Blu-Ray Deluxe Version (with 60-page book in slipcase); a 4-LP vinyl boxset (on heavyweight clear vinyl); and a Blu-Ray/DVD combo (featuring the full live show). Both Blu-Ray sets include Dolby Atmos surround sound, 5.1 audio, and 24-bit lossless audio.
Pre-orders are ongoing via Porcupine Tree’s website, and 500 random pre-orders will receive a signed 8×8-inch art print.
