A more than welcome addition to the PT catalogue despite its short running time, Nil Recurring delivers the standard of complexity, depth and musicianship we've all come to expect from these prog masters. An essential companion and extension to Fear of a Blank Planet for any and of all lovers of the album. "Cheating the Polygraph", in particular, is one of the brightest moments of post-In Absentia Porcupine Tree.
Simply because I believe Normal, Cheating The Polygraph and What Happens Now? are three of Porcupine Tree's greatest songs. I just wish it were longer.
