Inspired by a childhood soundtracked by Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree was formed in England in 1987 in the mind of Steve Wilson, who dreamed of fronting a 70s-style prog-rock group. In 1989 Wilson created a demo tape, Tarquin’s Seaweed Farm, which found a small underground following, and this was followed by a second tape The Nostalgia Factory. Tracks from both found their way onto On the Sunday of Life (1991).
