Steven Wilson - The Future Bites 2021
A bold step in the right direction. To me, all of Steven's solo albums are precious in their own way, this one included. Not "prog" in the traditional sense, but beautifully made intelligent pop music, with a lot of subtle progressive touches that take some time to discover. I also love the sarcasm, the love/hate relationship with consumerism. Comment by O666 8 years ago

Steven Wilson - Insurgentes 2009
So underrated. Every track feels like it has a totally different approach to it. One of my favourites Comment by zitro
Steven Wilson - Insurgentes 2009
Steven Wilson keeps growing as a musician. This is a very eclectic album that is quite consistent in quality. In this album, Wilson explores dissonance (luckily not overused). If this were a Porcupine Tree album, I'd rank it among its best works.
