1. OBJECTS OUTLIVE US
2. THE OVERVIEW
Steven Wilson
The Overview
fiction
Consisting of two long-form pieces exploring the “overview effect” experienced by astronauts looking back at the Earth from space, Wilson’s music has always sounded out of this world but this goes beyond our stars.
'The Overview' sees Wilson return to expansive, progressive music, a genre he helped redefine and repopularise with both his solo and Porcupine Tree releases. The two wildly ambitious tracks are each made up of distinctive musical sections that flow from one to the other, playing out as unique and continuous pieces. Wilson’s 21st-century progressive music updates the classic ‘prog’ musical palette to incorporate everything from glistening electronics to post-rock and beyond, which brings the genre right into the beating heart of the current musical landscape.
The album also features a set of lyrics by XTC’s Andy Partridge that help drive the story in “Objects Outlive Us”.
'The Overview' is instantly recognisable as Steven Wilson and will stand alone as an utterly unique release for 2025. Headphones and a wide-open mind are recommended.
For Fans Of: Porcupine Tree / Pink Floyd / The Pineapple Thief
