## Description

Steven Wilson has announced details of To The Bone – his expansive, brilliant fifth album, a gloriously dynamic modernist pop record as imagined by the UK’s biggest underground artist. Fusing driving futurist rock and spectral electronics to elegiac hyper-space ambience and dizzying, squalling guitars, To The Bone is Steven Wilson’s hat-tip to the hugely ambitious progressive pop records of his youth (think Peter Gabriel’s So, Talk Talk’s Colour of Spring, Tears for Fears Seeds of Love). Lyrically, the album’s eleven tracks veer from the paranoid chaos of the post-truth era and the creeping self-loathing of the technology age to steely fly-on-the-wall observations of the everyday lives of religious fundamentalists with a welcome shot or two of wide-eyed escapism. Sonically and melodically stunning, To The Bone is a high definition snapshot of the disconcerting times we live in. The follow up to 2015’s Hand. Cannot. Erase. (""a smart, soulful and immersive work of art"" the Guardian 5*), To The Bone is Steven Wilson’s first album since signing with Caroline International (Iggy Pop, Underworld, Thurston Moore, Glass Animals). Formerly the founder and mainstay of outsider rock band Porcupine Tree, Steven released his first record under his own name – Insurgentes – in 2008. He has been resolutely independent throughout a three-decade career that’s made him the most successful British artist you’ve never heard of.

Review: He is without doubt Prog’s shining star cum poster boy and one of the finest musicians of his generation - Few things drive as much expectation to this writers ears than a new Steve Wilson album. Every one of his last 3 releases has been my album of the year and many others too. He is without doubt Prog’s shining star cum poster boy and one of the finest musicians of his generation. This new album ruffled feathers among some Prog purists when it came out, mainly because it’s a departure from the epic grandeur of his recent releases and a clear move in a progressive pop direction. It’s a combination of prog, pop, electronica and trip-hop, complete with trademark Floydian atmospherics. Wilson has stated his influences for the album clearly and publicly, particularly Kate Bush, Talk Talk, Peter Gabriel, Tears for Fears and The The. These were exactly the kind of artists me and whole load of other curious music fans were listening to in the 80s. Todd Rundgren's electronic ballads also appear to be an influence. There’s some XTC in there too with Andy Partridge co-writing two songs (To The Bone and Nowhere Now). I’d call out Talk Talk's The Colour of Spring and Tears for Fears' The Seeds of Love as being particularly influential albums on his new LP. What they all have in common is that they are accessible, with compelling melodies, but full of nuance and layers in the production, musicianship and lyrics. One of the early highlights of the album is hearing Mark Feltham’s amplified harmonica soaring over the mix. His distinctive sound is all over Talk Talk and The The’s best albums of the 80s (and many others too). One remembers it instantly and is transported back to the golden era of Prop Pop. Very powerful indeed. Another early highlight is Pariah, with Israeli vocalist Ninet Tayeb raising the hairs on one’s skin with her piercing tone, range and control. Wonderful. The stand out track of the 1st disc (I listen to this on vinyl at 45rpm of course) is Permanating. This is the one that some SW fans found a bit too much. It’s the most poppy, catchy and light-hearted song Wilson has ever written. It’s also the reason his LP charted at No. 3 getting him the wider audience he so clearly deserves. In stark and deliberate contrast is the soul shattering Refuge which follows it. Between these 2 tracks one has the entire A-Z of the Wilson cannon. Few, if any, can match him for diversity. The second disc is by far the Proggier of the two and acts as a payoff for the Pop indulgences of disc 1. Highlights would be Detonation which features (Slovak experimental guitarist) David Kollar’s magnificent extended solo over a funk vamp. Album closer, Song of Unborn is perhaps the best track on the album. It attains similar heights to last album closer Happy Returns. One can’t help thinking that Steve saved it to the end as a reward for listening to his pop experiment. One also can’t help thinking that there might be a little Wilson on its way too. Most welcome. To the Bone is a truly fantastic album, a showcase of variety and attention to detail, and a perfectly appropriate addition to Wilson's vast and diverse body of work. It deserves your full attention.
Review: The Journey Continues..... - Some negative pre-release comment together with the singles releases made me wary about this purchase. However, having bought it on cd and vinyl, and listened to the music in context, from start to finish a good few times now I was relieved and pleasantly surprised, when I should not have been. This is an amazing collection of songs as one would expect from SW. I would not consider this a pop album per se though the songs are more accessible overall than previous releases. Its roots are certainly bedded in rock/ progressive rock and the end product has a very modern feel to it. There is one pure pop song “Permanating” (a good toe tapper for sure) which I would say is the weakest track, and occasionally the music will veer towards pop rock in a good way. This album is an eclectic mix that really gels. Stand out tracks for me are the title track “To the Bone” plus “Refuge”, “People Who Eat Darkness”, “Song of Unborn”, and the explosive (pun intended) “Detonation”. The balance of the songs are not too far behind either. Excellent song writing,musicianship and vocals/backing vocals from all quarters combine to make a superb album – again. And for something really different on a SW record– that harmonica! Lesson learned - ignore negativity and teaser releases and wait for the real deal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just the ticket
*by M***B on 4 September 2017*

Imagine prog meets disco. If that sounds bad you really haven't appreciated the great songs, riffs, bass lines and rhythms that have come out of both genres. Mr W. has brewed up a fantastic concoction by mixing these disparate elements up in his mind and using the ensuing emulsion to write this superb collection of songs without the slightest consideration of what a 'genre' should sound like. And that is a good thing, not to mention a refreshing antidote to so much meh. Have you heard his work on the old Yes albums? Masterful - go and have a look at what he did to Fragile, for example. It's worth buying a surround sound system for the blu-ray 5.1 remix of that alone. Dear Mr Wilson, please could we have a 5.1 blu-ray of Hand. Cannot, Erase? Thanks. Mr JB
