I am curious about two things:
What even happened to Mr. Flautist
and
How many songs will be about women, dying violent deaths (I think it's 3 out of 6 on the Raven)

I am always pumped for anything Steven Wilson, can't imagine him topping The Raven though....Especially from the viewpoint of this site if he will have some poppy songs, he will get slammed.  I enjoy his Covers album, would not mind some of those songs with his full band. The female vocals sound like Aleena Gibson. I just hope he stops in Seattle for a show.

Yeah, I also find it difficult to think of him topping The Raven... but then again, I thought the same about him topping Grace for Drowning, and he did it, so, I guess we'll just have to wait and listen.

As much as I loved Grace and The Raven, if the new album ends up taking a different direction, I'll be okay with that. It would be tough to top the previous two albums, and it'll be refreshing to hear something new from Wilson.

Not much love for Insurgentes it appears? Surprising really. I find that to be excellent, especially as it was his solo debut. No Twilight Within The Courts of the Sun is surely one of his best ever songs.
All three of his albums are superb and I for one am pleased that he has concentrated on solo rather than PT which appears now to be consigned to history. Sounds like the new album will be a good one.

I like "No Twilight Within the Courts of the Sun" a lot too, plus some other songs from Insurgentes, but it is not nearly as great as a whole album as his next two ones. And as far as PT, I think it's time is past and gone and the band already offered the best it could give; it had already started it's way downhill and I believe it was the right thing for Steven to put it aside in order to work on different things, which may not have been adequate for PT to do (plus, I believe I read someone on the band wasn't fond of the jazzy things Wilson wanted to try). Perhaps the time will come when it will be right to bring PT back.

From what I'm hearing a lot more guitar and a lot less old-school prog then the previous album.
Looking forward to it!

I think Insurgentes is his best work since PT's Stupid Dream, but yeah, I'm in the minority.

Seconded, I like pretty much everything Wilson did but prefer when he's in his moody sultry song mode!

One of Swilson's best artworks to date.
Up there with Deadwing and Lightbulb Sun. Absolutely love it immediately.
Tracklist has some nice variety with lengths and i'd love to hear the shorter tracks.
A for sure buy on release date. May even pre-order it if it has some goodies.

Not a huge fan of the cover but the third vid certainly sounded more enticing than the first.
