In an interview with Innerviews, Wilson responded to a query about new music and the way forward for the band saying: “It’s kind of too early to say, to be trustworthy. Once more, they’re totally different. I believe a bit like my solo profession, Porcupine Tree has reached some extent the place we do not wish to attempt to do something besides be ourselves. We do not wish to fear about what folks count on of us—not that we ever did.
“We’re having fun with the method. I really like working with Gavin Harrison and Richard Barbieri. And the plain factor for me now could be that as a result of the solo profession is established, I am rather more capable of be a part of a democratic band in a means I wasn’t again within the day. I used to really feel the necessity to management it extra. Now, I do not. In actual fact, I relish the thought of giving up management and maybe not getting my very own means on a regular basis. I am open to not essentially doing issues the way in which I might have achieved them myself.
“I believe Porcupine Tree going ahead will not be extremely prolific. We might not tour once more. However I believe we’ll undoubtedly make no less than another file. It might even be the following mission, presumably. However that is as a lot as I can say in the mean time.”
He additionally famous that he’d like to do a Porcupine Tree reside present field set, although that may show troublesome as he is acquired a whole lot of materials to dig by.
“I have been speaking about doing a Porcupine Tree reside field set, as a result of just about each present we performed was recorded. However that might be a large job to compile 12-15 exhibits that characterize every part of the band in the absolute best mild. It might be three-to-four months’ work. When am I going to try this? I believe it is one thing I’ll get to finally, however it could be at a time after I take a step again from making new work. And as you see, that is not occurring proper now.”
