Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England

Steven Wilson (born Steven John Wilson on November 3, 1967 in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England) is a self-taught guitarist, producer, audio engineer, bass guitar and keyboard player (among other musical instruments). He is perhaps best known as the lead guitarist/singer and songwriter for progressive rock band Porcupine Tree, but his projects are numerous, including collaborations with Israeli superstar Aviv Geffen, Blackfield, long-running partnership with Tim Bowness, No-Man, also teaming up with Dirk Serries… , Continuum, as well as his own solo projects Bass Communion and Incredible Expanding Mindfuck, and the recently released Insurgentes album under his own name. In addition to his prolific musical output, he has also undertaken production work, with such high profile artists as Opeth, Marillion, Fish, and friend Robert Fripp. Wilson is known for the high production quality of his music, employing synthesisers and programmed music along with live instruments to create a unique atmosphere for each song he works on, including otherwise-simple pop tunes.

No Twilight Within the Courts of the Sun has to be one of the best songs he's made so far.

i would say that it would take multiple listen to actually appreciate this album. I wasn't impressed after i bought it, but i took the time and i was rewarded. sounds cliche, but it's true.

I like his music with Porcupine Tree and Blackfield much better than his solo album, personally.

The Insurgentes special edition and the special Packaging from K-Scope in the U.K are truly great representation of the work.

The second disc of Insurgentes was never supposed to be a disc filled with leftovers. It was an extra disc, filled with extra songs for the special edition. Plus, Steven Wilson doesn't do throwaways ;)

Yeah, the 78. At first, I figured the second disc would kind of be throwaway, but several of those tracks are just as good as anything on the main disc.

Damnit this NSRGNTS/insurgentes stuff is really good. If SW condensed all the creative energies of No-Man, Bass Communion, PT, SW and the rest into one band, it would be unsurpassably good. Frustrating! But the Wilson probably wants it that way.

hmm, well i hope the film gets chosen for an American film festival or is it too late. I prefer going to the big screen, and not the dvd version, just yet.
