New Gavin Harrison Album 2015-03-02 by Tunaboy45 | 11 Comments | Gavin Harrison, most famous for his drum work in Porcupine Tree, has announced his new album, 'Cheating The Polgraph'. It will be released Monday 13th April and features re-imagined versions of classic Porcupine Tree songs.
Harrison's explanation of the album:
“I think every album needs a focus – a master plan – and whilst I thought about writing new tunes for a big band project – I made a version of PT’s Futile (with Laurence Cottle) and it came out really well. It felt like a good plan to follow on with some of my personal favourite PT songs and see if we could make them work. I had a vision that the arrangements would never lean towards a clichéd classic big band sound but always follow a modern contemporary angle. So even if you didn’t know the original tune you could still enjoy it as a modern composition that would work with this instrumentation. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Laurence Cottle’s immense talent as a musician and arranger was mind blowing.”
Tracklist:

Sound Of Muzak/So Called Friend
The Start Of Something Beautiful

This is kind of a cool idea. It'll be interesting to hear how it plays out in practice. I'd be willing to give this a chance.

Holy shit..I wish I was a Porcupine Tree fan...such an insanely awesome idea for a member of a band you like to do

Got a Kscope sampler CD (Kscope 6 I believe) with an order and an edited version of Hatesong/Halo is on there, brilliant stuff.
