Porcupine Tree - Up The Downstair - New 2LP
Format: New 2LP Label: Transmission Cat. No. TRANSM172LP Barcode: 802644817217 Released: 26/02/2021
Remastered by Steven Wilson. 'Up The Downstair' in 1993 as an album that took British psychedelic and progressive rock in to the modern era, dropping the indulgent nature of the genres for forceful, emotive music.
Following the now sold-out first box set of Porcupine Tree's 'Delerium Years', and the near sold-out second box set, Kscope are re-releasing the band's records from the era, including 'Up The Downstair', as a series of LPs presented in gatefold packaging. This double LP version is pressed on to 180g heavyweight audiophile vinyl and uses real drums (played by Gavin Harrison) in place of the original sampled drums, and features the tracks remastered by Steven Wilson in 2016 with more naturalistic dynamics and EQ - remasters previously only available in 'The Delerium Years 1991 - 1993' box set.
