FIRST LOOK - In Absentia Deluxe Edition - Porcupine Tree

[@MartijnMartens]

It would be actually so much nicer if an actual fan would review it. Love the video, hate the talking and stupid comments.

There is a reason why his channel is 10 years old and still has only 2.6K subscribers.

Excellent album..

[@sevans1966]

There's a strip at the top of the packaging which makes opening it 'sticky finger free', and so easy.

[@whiskynutter79]

Yep. I filled the proverbial bucket of man mayonnaise when I finally got my hands on it, and it’s magnificent. 👍 ( although I don’t think it’s worth £54.99, which is what I paid for it - £39.99 I think is fair )

[@tinostabile3256]

@karlCharlton I love your comment. Well, I am just about that happy with mine.... and the awesome price I got mine for. Like having your proverbial cake and eating it too.

[@classicalbum]

Nice unboxing. I steered away from this one as it was a bit pricey tbh....

[@tinostabile3256]

Hi Darren, Love the album. Sorry, man. I have been looking for it since its release and because of a significant price drop I was finally able to acquire it. I am in heaven.

[@tinostabile3256]

@@TheDarrenLock Haha.

[@9Dill]

Hey, Darren, thanks for the video!!!

[@Nephilim-81]

Funny thing is I thought Darren would end up loving this. 😝

[@Nephilim-81]

Darren. Have to agree. I won’t buy it. The album is not to my taste and I ended up watching your review and came to some of your same conclusions. One thing we would disagree on is the boxset’s presentation. I think it is rather quite good. Anyhow, I wish my tastes were geared towards this album, especially since I love 5.1 mixes and rumor has it they improved the mix from the last dvd audio 5.1 mix release. I don’t kid myself though. I’m a music fan first, audio enthusiast 2nd. 🙂 Have a great day.

Fear of a blank planet is the best one

That’s the worst one!

Howard Thomas to some yes to me no it’s all subjective

[@benevolentautore4463]

Just opened mine. Was really hoping for a bit more unreleased bonus tracks.

[@talaniel]

Unpacking: you should have used the red strip instead of fighting with the glue :-D

[@Ppj29qT]

Why show where you can buy this boxset, if you don't like it? I just got a copy and I like it very much. Sounds good.

[@andrewthomas3270]

I got my Boxset 2 Days ago. Just let you know there is an Error on the Blu-Ray disc, I got an email Yesterday from Burning Shed to say that the Hi Res 24/96 Bit files of the CD 2 tracks are missing and once Burning Shed receives the new Blu-Ray discs in a few weeks we will All have them posted out to us. 😊

I managed to get music for old farts. A Vinyl box-set of Roy Orbison for about $140, completely new with 13 vinyl discs. Now who the fuck is Steven? A damn nobody in comparison, though i do enjoy his music from time to time 👍

[@benevolentautore4463]

FYI, Another disc will be sent in the mail since the Blu Ray is not correct.

[@benevolentautore4463]

Thanks for the reply. Just putting out the message that kscope sent. They will be mailing a new disc to replace the one that is incorrectly mastered. No work on our part if ordered through kscope.

[@andrewthomas3270]

Nope best album for me is Fear Of A Blank Planet

@@TheDarrenLock We can thank Simon Cowell for the drudge that passes as music these days. At least Wilson is trying to change that. Thank God.

[@bobby666666]

I like the album. Not enough extras to warrant purchasing as I have the original. Stupid Dream album is so much better.

Hi Darren, i haven't watched your channel for quite some time,the fault on the blu ray is inexcusable and it is overpriced. But i happen to like the album,i do enjoy the way you do these reviews always entertaining keep up the good work!

Wow did not know this has been reissued good album then I heard you say the price no thanks.

[@johnfloydman7735]

HOW MUCH ! 😬😨😲....🚾..

[@stuartraybould2404]

Got the original DVD with the surround sound so don't need this, it's not one of their best I agree, Stupid Dream, Lightbulb Son, the earlier albums even Fear of a Blank Planet and yes The Incident are all better. Doesn't look worth the money, not interested. Just got around to getting Nucleus and Ian Carr Remastered box set, wonderful remastering of some great music from the early 70s, far more interesting than this bog standard rock.

[@brassknuklebrandi]

HA HA Silly Money for this . You can't polish a turd as you say

[@416KPD]

Looks like a worthless crap for the price, you're also right about Lassie Hollie.

[@ht2578]

Horrible album from a horrible band.
