'Deadwing' was Porcupine Tree's eighth studio album, frst released in 2005 following their breakthrough with 'In Absentia', it was the second in a run of 3 albums that for many represent the pinnacle of the band's artistic achievements. It also continued their new-found commercial success to become their top-selling record at the time.

Based on a screenplay written by Steven Wilson & director Mike Bennion, about half of the songs were started with a view to being part of the score to that flm, but when the flm failed to move into the production stage, Wilson instead made them the foundation for the next PT album, with additional material written in collaboration with the other band members.

The album features guest appearances from Adrian Belew (King Crimson), who plays guitar solos on the title track & "Halo" & Mikael Åkerfeldt (Opeth), who adds vocal harmonies & a guitar solo to "Arriving Somewhere But Not Here".
