Rich Wilson

Now updated and in paperback for the first time, the first in-depth investigation into one of England’s most enigmatic and engaging bands Time Flies by Rich Wilson draws on original interviews with former band members, friends and colleagues, to create a fascinating history of Porcupine Tree. New material covers the making of Closure/Continuation and the 2022 world tour.

Rich tells the story from the earleist days of Porcupine Tree in founder Steven Wilson’s bedroom through, reviewing their whole career and eleven studio albums. An unauthorised biography, it offers a perfectly complete critical look at arguably the UK’s last great prog rock band from 1987 to 2022.
