I completely agree. I had been getting pretty bored with the music I usually listen to, and I was despairing because of it. Then I discovered Steven Wilson & had a reason to be excited again.
il ritorno del progressive di alto livello , un lavoro stupendo, come non se ne vedeva da anni , il sound è favoloso , la musica è coinvolgente con i suoi chiaroscuri
I listened to that Kate Bush song " All the Love" he talks about at 13:39. Took me more than one listen- but what an absolutely haunting track. Definitely unexpected. Thank you for the recommendation Mr. Wilson. Everyone else, check if out!
I'm 56 and regretfully, I have never seen and may never see collectively the real and original members of the band Porcupine Tree perform live. Its my opinion that during the touring days of the original real band promotion here in the U.S. was somewhere between completely ineffective and non existent. The recordings of the original band's music had and continues to have a profound impact on my perception of music's ability to penetrate and awaken the spiritual being in us all so I do indeed respect PT's work Collectively. Needless to say I look forward to seeing a few members perform as Porcupine Tree this coming Sept. I will not be alone in missing dreadfully the members whos presence is required to make a different band that really WAS PORCUPINE TREE. I appreciate much of Steven's contribution a to PT's creativity and originality. I resent stevens self centered arrogant implications basically saying that he felt the need to push Guthrie Govan to explore new or broader textures and sounds implying Guthrie was in need of Stevens support, encouragement and insight needed to further Guthrie's unrivaled potential as a guitar player. As if Guthrie had never before explored ifferent sounds that he may derive from a guitar. My opinion is Steven should recognize the true order of things in his field and as well as stevens clear misinterpreted perception of his self rank when among the likes of Guthrie. I do not believe Guthrie Govan, who always maintains respect and humility would ever say to the masses something as arrogant and act like he's teaching Steven something even though he surely can and probably has in reality. It appears Steven is hoping we listeners might infer that he himself has much to offer to Guthrie from his position of superior understanding of music and sound. Steven needs to recognize. Steven should reconsider what was said and implied about Guthrie need for Steven. I believe Guthrie was humbly willing to submit to the confinements of the simple guitar parts written for a master like Guthrie. They are no where in the same hemisphere when it comes to which one has earned and demonstrates true authority and genius thru actual writing and playing which is what it's really all about instead of large ego self praise talk.
Whoa! Nice diatribe! I’ve not read that before? I’ll give witness on his talent. My eldest son said “Dad, I got a spare ticket to see Steven Wilson, you in?” Mr. Wilson proved to me why he’s one of the best musicians out there bringing us bliss! I’ve never been so blown away in a long time!!! And we had Stage Right box seats!! Reached Nirvana that night. It was so perfectly executed that I almost thought it was a movie!
Lυиαтyc its incredible! I actually study mechanic engineering and play guitar. i dont know what way take. I like eng. But music is amazing for me. When i see this video i feel the same "wow i want this " sorry for my english. Cheers from arg
I simply loop exit watching studio footage, so cool! I used to play in panic and survival and west star studios which where never this glamorous of course, maybe next time round!
It was a crazy concert ,a total bang for the buck! The first 1.5 hours was the entire Hand Cannot Erase from left to right which was perfect in almost every sense , and the last 2 hours were Porcupine Tree songs, all the popular ones. The crowd went relatively more crazy in the second half but according to me both halves were equally good! Stage presence and antiques were more prominent in the second half though!
Fuck! And I thought the last time I was on the Wilson concert, Marco and Guthrie were simply not there because the concert dates were coliding with the Aristocrats tour. But to think, that they will not play with Wilson again is sad. They really pushed the live experience (at least) one level higher.
Tyler Jacobson both drummers are quite different. I got to see both drummers playing at Nearfest with Eddie Johnson’s UK. I prefer Marco because he’s more feel than Magini’s technique.
Funny. At one point I was hearing Beatles, if they had stuck together long enough to go prog. Then he mentions the woman in the city disappearing and I think Eleanor Rigby.
