Steven Wilson v. To. The. Bone.

[nobloodyname]

There doesn't seem to be anything new on it, as far as I can tell, by comparing the Discogs listing (https://www.discogs.com/Steven-Wilson-Hand-Cannot-Erase/release/6707231) with the one provided by The Prog Report.

bump.

at 1 time this seemed incredibly unlikely.

But dude tied the knot

Looked very formal, if his attire is any indication.

[romdrums]

Looks like he married the first girl who wasn't a man. I wonder if he laughed as the spiders ran all over his hand?

[ReaperKK]

Saw that on instagram, good for him, he looks happy.

[SwedishGoose]

Anyone know who she is?

Looks the spitting image of Ninet Tayeb in that picture to me...

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

I don't think it's Ninet. Pretty sure she is married to Joseph Mizrachi

[SwedishGoose]

I'm pretty sure it's not Ninet too.... but she looked strikingly similar to me

[Schurftkut]

She's also from Israel, i guess that's why

[Zydar]

Sources says her name is Rotem Rom.

no-man will release Love You To Bits, its first studio album for eleven years on 22nd November 2019. Pre-order now: https://no-man.lnk.to/LoveYouToBitsSo

A gloriously ambitious statement unlike anything in its back catalogue, the album consists of two connected five-part pieces and combines shimmering Pop and pulsating Electronica elements in fresh and surprising ways (incorporating aspects of Fusion, Ambient and much more).

Twenty-five years in the making and lyrically chronicling the aftermath of a relationship from different perspectives, Love You To Bits features poignant melodies, big beats and breathtaking solos that collide with ethereal textures and bold experiments to create the most dynamic and diverse no-man release to date.

Adam Holzman, David Kollar, Ash Soan, Pete Morgan, and the Dave Desmond Brass Quintet guest.

Produced by no-man, the album was mixed by Bruno Ellingham and mastered by Matt Colton.

-------------
The album is just under 36 minutes long, and consists of two 5-part suites that take up a vinyl side each. The preview sounds groovy, and simultaneously sounds like nothing they've done before but also very much like no-man! Can't wait for this album!

-Marc.

[LCArenas]

I'm excited both for No-Man and Steven's Marriage. She looks really pretty and he looks really happy to marry her, too; I'm honestly Glad for the man. And I've really been looking forward to No-Man since Schoolyard Ghosts left me wanting for more a long time ago. Honestly Glad for no-man.

anyone else see the Instagram clips?

I am so ready for Steven-Wilson-bubblegum-80s-synthpop in which he criticises consumerism! Seriously psyched right now!

somewhat remisicent of Radiohead in some ways (think Fitter Happier), but then again, anyone is better than Radiohead. That being said, I like the idea he had with these two.

[RoeDent]

The first bit of music in the second clip sounded like Voulez-Vous-era ABBA. Like he's taken Permanating to the next level.

that too (of course) and I'm sure that can be a good thing

[Mladen]

I'd honestly be down for a complete album with songs like that. Make it twelve tracks, all four minute long dancy songs. I know Steven would make them jam packed with musicianship, catchiness and good lyrics.

[FlyingBIZKIT]

Might be a dumb question, but are these teasers related to the new no-man album? I've never actually listened to no-man so I have no clue.

Also, I'm supporting anything Steven does. Although Permanating is by far my least favorite song from his solo catalogue, I would be pretty cool with some more pop.

I was just going to post exactly this...

no-man is more quiet, atmospheric and the most songs I know of them have no or very little drums... I don't think it's a teaser for their new album. Here is a song by them:

Btw, as I was listening to the link I just postet myself, I realised how beautiful this is and now I'm going to listen to the whole album 

[Zantera]

While the new No-Man is supposedly disco music, SW doesn't sing there and judging by the snippets that's SW.

I would be down for a poppy SW album as well, I love variety and I like it when artists take risks and don't just stick to their traditional sound out of fear that the grumpy fanboys will start hating them if they try something different.

[KevShmev]

I want him to make an entire album full of Permanating-like songs, just to aggravate the fans who lost their mind over it.

Jokes aside, I agree with you, Zantera, and I have the upmost faith that SW will continue to mix it up on every album while maintaining the high overall quality.   

[faizoff]

Those clips are definitely intriguing. The one from today and the last one prior had some disco-esque samples and I wonder if he's headed towards a more 70s-80s synth pop sound.

"ARENA SHOWS ACROSS EUROPE AND UK
SEPTEMBER 2020
 
“Every time I make a new album, it's hugely important for me that it holds a unique place in my catalogue and won't simply be more of the same. Moving into the third decade of the 21st century and my second decade as a touring solo artist, it felt like time to apply the same philosophy to the live experience. I want to challenge myself to create something that confronts my own notions (and hopefully the audience's too) of how to present my music in a concert situation. This has become The Future Bites - a series of special events at larger venues, something on a grander and more immersive scale. I'm already hugely excited about them!” - SW

The Future Bites - September 2020:
Thu 17th - Motorpoint Arena Nottingham, UK 🇬🇧
Sat 19th - The O2, London, UK 🇬🇧
Mon 21st - Zenith Paris - La Villette, France 🇫🇷
Wed 23rd - Mediolanum Forum, Milan, Italy 🇮🇹
Fri 25th - König-Pilsener-ARENA, Oberhausen, Germany 🇩🇪
Sat 26th - Sporthalle, Hamburg, Germany 🇩🇪

Weds 30th - COS Torwar, Warsaw, Poland 🇵🇱

Interesting. I am inclined to think the smaller scale works best for his type of music, but I also think Steven is the kind of guy very well aware of that and will do everything to accomodate for an immersive larger show. But Ziggodome is quite big (17000), it will be interesting to see how much he manages to fill, though I guess the outer rings can be closed off.

[Buddyhunter1]

I just hope "The Future Bites" isn't the name of the next album

[The Letter M]

To celebrate The Future Bites Tour, there will be a very limited edition vinyl of my forthcoming sixth album (details/release date TBC). These are available to pre-order now. https://stevenwilson.lnk.to/TVINID

The problem is, we still have to put up with the grumpy "fanboys" (I have major issues with calling them fans) whinging and moaning about this.

[cramx3]

The tour sounds cool assuming he can pack those arenas well enough.  Kind of hard to create an immersive concert if the arena isn't packed but he might be able to sell well enough.  Certainly like the idea of trying this.

I'm guessing he will be able to (in Europe anyway, seeing as some of the shows he did on the 2TB tour were in arenas, Madrid and some others IIRC, medium sized halls in Germany though, no arenas here at that time, until right now that is)

[Fritzinger]

I already pre-ordered that limited edition of the new album and I can't wait for 31/12/2029.

Love the cover artwork too.

[Zantera]

It was weird seeing comments on Facebook from people being upset that he 1. got married 2. "selling out" playing big arenas. Even if SW never makes another album I like (which I find highly unlikely) I would still be happy that in his 50s he finally found love and he got his break and earning the type of money I feel he should have been making earlier in his career. Even if his dark prog days of melancholic sadness is behind him, how is it a negative that he's finally getting to play big venues?

[cramx3]

Haters gonna hate.  Never understood the dislike towards success some people have.  Sometimes artists change with success and I understand that, but sometimes they don't and still people hate.

How do you handle your anxiety for such a long period of time? I need some tips
