I do not get this album. It is full of forlorn unmelodic noise that in my opinion does not contain the brilliance of his work with porcupine tree, not to mention doing the sound engineering on Jethro Tull's latest album Thick as a Brick 2. Grace for Drowning falls short of my expectations of what Steven Wilson is capable of. In saying that however this album is tagged ‘alternative’ which is a far cry from progressive rock that Porcupine Tree are better known for. The track ‘Raider 2’ has a couple of moments but next to the 23 minute duration of the song is not nearly enough. This album is hard to listen to and not very entertaining

Description

This 2CD limited edition of ‘Grace for Drowning’ is packaged in a deluxe 28-page rigid digi-book.

Grace for Drowning, the new solo double album from PORCUPINE TREE frontman
Steven Wilson will be available on Kscope from September 26th.

Steven Wilson is a twice Grammy-nominated producer, writer and performer, best known as founder and front man of British rock band Porcupine Tree. He has also produced and /or mixed albums for artists as diverse as Swedish metal band Opeth, Norwegian chanteuse Anja Garbarek, and progressive rock institution King Crimson. Last year, he also co-wrote and sang a track from Pendulum’s number one album
‘Immersion’.

Porcupine Tree’s latest album The Incident went top 30 in both the UK and USA, and the world tour climaxed with sold out shows in October last year at Royal Albert Hall in London and Radio City Music Hall in New York.

Grace for Drowning is the second album released under Wilson’s own name, and builds on the artistic inroads he forged with 2009’s excepti­onally well-received Insurgentes.

A double album (‘two 40–45 minute albums in the same package’) Wilson has described the new album as “my biggest project to date”.
