Steven Wilson, the mastermind of Porcupine Tree delivers us in 2011 his second solo album. An epic two disc affair, Wilson also delivers us his most personal and passionate affair to date, across all projects. This album fuses ambiance with jazz and classic progressive rock from the 60's and 70's to create an epic and beautiful work of art. The personal nature of this album is amplified by the loss of Steven's father earlier this year, and is also amplified by the guests he's brought in to create this beast. Tony Levin and Jordan Ruddess offer their assistance (just to name a few) and as a whole the groupings encapsulate what an entire era was all about. This album will be misunderstood and disliked by many who long for soaring guitars and blast beats, but beloved by music aficionados who know their history and love this style. Expect to see this album again.
