====''Deadwing''====
In early 2004, the band embarked on the recording sessions for their next record, ''[[Deadwing]]'', their second for Lava/Atlantic. The album takes its inspiration from a film script written by Wilson with his filmmaker friend Mike Bennion. The album sessions completed in November 2004, and ''Deadwing'' was released in Europe and the US during the spring of 2005 as both a stereo and 5.1 surround-sound album, preceded by the release of two singles, "[[Shallow (Porcupine Tree song)|Shallow]]" in the US and "[[Lazarus (Porcupine Tree song)|Lazarus]]" in Europe. The album benefited from guest appearances by [[Adrian Belew]] from [[King Crimson]] and Opeth's [[Mikael Åkerfeldt]], and was a commercial success, due in part to "Shallow" receiving airplay, peaking at number 26 on ''[[Billboard Charts|Billboard]]'s'' [[Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks]].<ref name="Billboard Peak Position of 'Shallow'">{{cite magazine|url= http://billboard.com/bbcom/retrieve_chart_history.do?model.vnuArtistId=141384&model.vnuAlbumId=785460|title= Billboard Peak Position of 'Shallow'|magazine= [[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]| access-date= 7 January 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080411075011/http://billboard.com/bbcom/retrieve_chart_history.do?model.vnuArtistId=141384&model.vnuAlbumId=785460 |archive-date= 11 April 2008}}</ref> Additionally, "Lazarus" entered the German singles Top 100 at number 91.<ref name="Germany Singles Top 100">{{cite web|url= http://acharts.us/song/4541|title= Porcupine Tree – Lazarus – Music Charts|publisher= αCharts.us|access-date= 21 January 2007|url-status= live|archive-url= http://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/20110630004757/http://acharts.us/song/4541|archive-date= 30 June 2011|df= dmy-all}}</ref> The song "Shallow" was also featured in the soundtrack for the film ''[[Four Brothers (film)|Four Brothers]]''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0430105/soundtrack|title=Four Brothers (2005) – Soundtracks|website=[[The Internet Movie Database]]|access-date=2 April 2008|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071026175441/http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0430105/soundtrack|archive-date=26 October 2007}}</ref>

The tour to promote the album commenced in the UK at the end of March, and continued throughout the year. Mike Bennion created a [[Myspace]] page dedicated to the prospective ''Deadwing'' film, in which he posted the first 15 pages of the script and included a [[trailer (film)|trailer]].<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.myspace.com/deadwing|title= MySpace.com – deadwing – UK – www.myspace.com/deadwing|access-date= 15 July 2008|url-status= live|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20080707014445/http://www.myspace.com/deadwing|archive-date= 7 July 2008|df= dmy-all}}</ref> However, whilst the scripts are finished, the project is still on hiatus due to lack of budget.
