#Rats #Return
#PorcupineTree #music
#StevenWilson:
"This song is about those who claim to have the interests of the people at #heart, but when it comes down to it there is only ego and self-interest. I find myself reflecting on what sort of person would actually be so driven as to want to rule over a whole nation, and aren’t these people by definition the very last people that should be allowed to do so? The rats will always save themselves first."

After over a decade of hiatus one of the best Progressive Rock bands is back, Steven Wilson's Porcupine Tree with new songs and some songs with interesting lyrics commenting on our times.

#Herd #Culling

#StevenWilson:
"Lyrically, 'Herd Culling' is about a very specific event in #history, but it also deals with the broader theme of #paranoia in the #modern #age - someone or something is coming up your driveway or in your front garden, and their/its motives are unclear."

Taken from a comment: "this song makes reference to #SkinWalker Ranch, a place in Utah, which is famous for #UFO (UAP) sightings and also is supposed to be cursed by a SkinWalker (Some kind of native american witch doctor) in the past. There are claims of big wolf like creatures roaming the ranch and killing the cattle, as well as the cattle mutilation found in several locations where UFO (UAP) presence is known."
