About

Deadwing is the eighth studio album by British progressive rock band Porcupine Tree, first released on March 28, 2005. It quickly became the band's best selling album to date (though was later surpassed by Fear of a Blank Planet). The album is based on a screenplay written by Steven Wilson and Mike Bennion, and is essentially a ghost story. Given its narrative, most fans have dubbed this a concept album. Wilson has expressed the intention to eventually have this film script made into a movie. The album includes collaborations with King Crimson's Adrian Belew (who plays guitar solos on tracks.
