Porcupine Tree: Steven Wilson (vocals, various instruments, guitar, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, flute, Mellotron, keyboards, bass instrument, programming, sampler, tapes); Chris Maitland (vocals, drums, percussion); Suzanne Barbieri (vocals); Richard Barbieri (keyboards, electronics); Colin Edwin (double bass, bass guitar); Gavin Harrison (drums). STARS DIE is a 2-CD retrospective of Porcupine Tree's evolution from 1991 to 1997. It's a perfect starter for the curious as well as a choice collector's piece for the diehard fan, as it follows the chronological history of Tree--from Steve Wilson's Pink Floydian, psychedelic, one-man-band origins to the group's evolution into the atmospheric, progressive rock icon it is today. Besides a healthy selection of tracks from all the albums, there are also nine rare tracks that are either exclusive to this compilation or were released on out-of-print EPs (such as MOONLOOP and STAIRCASE INFINITIES). The collection also includes extensive liner notes and band history information with quotes from Porcupine Tree's members.

Formed in 1987, London's Porcupine Tree is one of the most highly regarded progressive rock acts in the genre. Blending influences of Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Deep Purple, Rush, and Black Sabbath, the band has released over 15 albums, EPs, and live recordings over its relatively short career. Part classic rock, part psychedelic, and part metal, Porcupine Tree also possesses a wide-ranging fan base. Though never garnering a "hit" single, the band was nominated for a Grammy in 2007.
