About us:
We are a band living in Rome, Italy, and we play Porcupine Tree covers. Our attempt is to recreate some of the atmospheres of early PT gigs and songs, in parallel with the last and heavier style and music of Wilson & Co. We play in the biggest and most famous places in Rome, where Porcupine Tree music was always well known and appreciated thanks to Radiorock (who is also involved in recording of Coma Divine live cd). We also played with the Porcupine Tree band (and all tour personnel) in our audience, the 25 of March at Geronimo, for a really amazing gig (a unique experience!).




The project and the group:
The project was started by an idea of Giancarlo (guitars), soon joined by Paolo (voice,synths) and Grazia (voice), then arrived Mario (drums, voice) and Alessandro (bass). We started playing together in the late 2001, our stelist includes well known songs as well as several ones never played by Porcupine Tree, starting from Up The Downstair album to the last In Absentia. We're also planning to play original songs in the future, probably starting with material from my forthcoming cd.
At the moment we played always in Italy, but we would like to play also in Europe where PT are well known. If you can help us in this task please contact me! (Giancarlo, silence@nosound.net).
In the meantime Giancarlo Erra started (along with some of the Redshift members) a solo project called NOSOUND. On the official website (www.nosound.net) you'll be able to read more about it and downlaod audio clips, and you'll be able to buy the new album, Sol29.
