Steven Wilson / Transience issued on CD
Vinyl-only compilation comes to CD
Steven Wilson‘s Transience compilation was a vinyl-only affair when issued last autumn, but is now being made available on CD…
The 13-track album is a satisfying ‘personally curated’ collection of material recorded between 2002- 2015, Actually it’s not 13-tracks anymore since the CD offers a bonus track, Happiness III.
Amongst some great material, Transience features superb songs from Hand. Cannot. Erase., including two versions unique to this compilation – a single version/edit of Transience (actually longer than the album version) and a new five minute edit/mix of Happy Returns (different from the ‘radio edit’ included on the HCE blu-ray).
Other tracks on Transience include two numbers from The Raven That Refused to Sing (And Other Stories) and a new recording of the Porcupine Tree classic Lazarus based on a live recording, subsequently overdubbed and edited in Wilson’s studio.
This new CD edition of Transience is released on 16 September. The 2LP vinyl is still available.
