That's how Porcupine Tree started out !Originally Posted by synsei
Of course, the next stage of this fantastically fun game is to build up a fictitious band history and album track list. For the more creative, maybe a sensational tabloid story too...
From Wikipedia:
Origins (1987–1990)
Porcupine Tree originated in 1987 as a collaborative hoax project by Steven Wilson and Malcolm Stocks. Partially inspired by the psychedelic/progressive bands of the 1970s (such as Pink Floyd) that had dominated the music scene during their youth, the two decided to form a fictional legendary rock band named The Porcupine Tree. The two fabricated a detailed back-story including information on alleged band members and album titles, as well as a "colourful" history which purportedly included events such as a meeting at a 1970s rock festival and several trips in and out of prison.
