They seem to be signing some better bands recently. Trying to repair their credibility maybe.

as long as it does not hurt their music....but I'm pretty confident. SW wouldn't have signed the contract otherwise. So is that only RR UK or RR Europe...or even worldwide? I always thought SW was happy with Warner...oh well. I hope that was a good move for them!

I read it's worldwide, except North America and Japan.

I have a feeling that Mikael Ã…kerfeldt had something to do with this

Yeah me too, i hope this isnt their ruin though the last opeth album wasnt great all. I cant stand the roadrunner release schedule either you have to wait a month or so after general release to get the deluxe digi which you can be pretty sure will appear for all their best sellers.

On the other hand its about time porcupine tree made some money, wilson works his ass off.

indeed....his discography is insane. He'd deserve the money!

and maybe RR will also be responsible for their project.

I can't wait to hear Steven Wilson rap!

Despite a slight feeling of unease, I hope that this deal has PT raise their profile down here.

Who knows? It may lead to a tour before the decade is out.

Now is the time that they will re-release every single P.T. release...ever! Think how wonderful that would be....!?!

Ahh well, I am sure it will be fine for the band. Does seem a slightly strange label to choose. Oh well!

I can't wait to hear Steven Wilson rap!

Listen to "Strip the Soul"...been there, done that.
