Description

Argument: After months of composing and recording, Steven Wilson has announced the release of To The Bone, his 5th album. An ambitious record that he himself says is influenced by the pop/progressive works he loved in his youth.

In terms of lyrics, the 11 tracks on this new album address the surrounding paranoid chaos, in which truth apparently becomes an increasingly blurred notion. From the observation of the daily lives of refugees, terrorists, and religious fundamentalists, to a return, eyes wide open and perhaps more joyful, to the escape that Steven has managed to create throughout his career so far. Available in physical and digital formats, To The Bone is also released in an ultra-limited Deluxe version with a 120-page book and a bonus CD filled with demos and unreleased songs.

Singer, guitarist, songwriter, producer, and also the leader of the progressive rock band Porcupine Tree for several years now, Steven Wilson is dedicated to a multitude of other projects as well as his prolific solo career, of which To The Bone is the 5th installment...
