Debut Album on 180g Double Vinyl!
Remastered by Steven Wilson!
Porcupine Tree's 1991 debut album is an album that stands up as a modern day pop-psych classic.
With acid warped lyrics courtesy of Alan Duffy (the brains behind the late lamented Imaginary Records label), the album is a surreal delight containing gems such as "Jupiter Island" and "Linton Samuel Dawson" filled with quirky melodies, effected vocals, and trippy backwards guitar work. "Nine Cats," the undoubted masterpiece of the album, is pure Edward Lear styled psychedelia.
"On the Sunday of Life" also hints at the direction the band would later take with more progressive influenced material such as the epic "Radioactive Toy" still performed live today. This edition is a double 180g heavyweight vinyl in a gatefold sleeve.
"...the many instrumental pieces are simply wonderful...On the Sunday of Life is still a great debut." -Ned Raggett, allmusic.com
"Refreshingly original - a wonderful musical adventure." - Record Collector
"A debut disc of unearthly delights... deadly seducing stuff." - NME
