Porcupine Tree plots 'Incident' on road

Prog-rockers Porcupine Tree have mapped a quick dash across the US next month to coincide with the impending release of the band's latest studio album, "The Incident."

The British outfit kicks off the outing Sept. 15 in Seattle, and will hit nine cities on the run, which concludes Sept. 26 in Philadelphia. Dates are shown below.

Due to surface in early September, "The Incident" is the band's 10th studio album, and follows 2007's critically acclaimed "Fear of a Blank Planet," which peaked at No. 57 on The Billboard 200, and landed on many critics' end-of-the-year best album lists.

The band enlisted Danish cinematographer (and longtime Porcupine Tree collaborator) Lasse Hoile to craft a video for the new album's "Time Flies." The video is currently streaming at the band's MySpace page.

"The song is about the idea that when you're young, days, months, and especially summers go on forever. It's an illusion we all experience," singer/guitarist Steven Wilson said of "Time Flies" in a press statement. "The years between one and 10 are an eternity, but the years after the age of twenty go by in a snap."

The group formed in 1987 as a side-project to Wilson's other act, No-Man, an art-rock duo that also includes singer/songwriter Tim Bowness.
