RUSHHEAD666 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 QUOTE (Oracle @ Sep 22 2011, 10:05 PM) Ended up not preordering. Pink Floyd box sorta took importance over this since, as I believe, the new SW album was still a rumor back in May (when the PF box was announced). I will be buying his new album though, on vinyl and CD. Wilson is one of the artists I really consider to be worth my money. Oracle! I hear you on the Pink Floyd Box. Hell I want the Japanese SHM pressings of this, but man I've been buying every Japanese remaster and reissue over the years. When will it stop? Will these versions actually sound the best? Is it worth the money? I'm going to have to get a loan man. Japan is killing me. Japan just released more Thin Lizzy Cd Box sets. Starcastle Box Sets. Black Sabbath Box Sets. Also the first three DIO album boxes are coming with bonus discs. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fledgehog Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 the album is amazing. Definitely better than Insurgentes, and might even be better than The Incident -- still need time to judge that. I'm hearing lots of King Crimson influence, especially in Raider II (the 23-minute long track). Strong contender for album of the year, can't wait for my CD copy to arrive.

Burning Shed I knew I should have went with Burning Shed. I got an email today saying it shipped. A few hours later I got another email saying that it really hasn't shipped and they're not getting the album until Monday, which means it probably won't come until the end of the week. I really don't want to download the leak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shail Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 (edited) it's an ok album. some soundtrack stuff i can deal without. hearing keyboard sounds with abstract instrument noises doesn't make for good listening pleasure. album production is stellar. don't like the drumming at all. should have got gavin for the gig. some of the songs are really good. after two listens it's ok. like insurgents a lot better.

ColdFireYYZ Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I've read some reviews and there's a mixed reaction. For those that have heard it, is Remainder The Black Dog one of the better songs? I loved it, so if the album is on that level I'll be happy. I've been waiting for months and I've had high hopes for this. I don't want to be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soni Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 New album is a masterpiece. PERIOD. Steven outdid himself... BTW, from Opeth's facebook: The long awaited collaboration between Mikael Akerfeldt and Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree) is finally being completed. The project goes under the name of 'Storm Corrosion' and will have a self-titled record out in April 2012 through a yet unnamed label. This album could be seen as the final part in the odd trilogy of records completed by "Heritage" and Steven Wilson's brand new solo album "Grace for Drowning".

How cool is that! A trilogy where two parts are separate efforts and the third a collaboration. I have high hopes for an incredible release by SW and MA.

Tony R Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 Tip for the Blu-Ray If you click on the "songs" option on the main memory you get presented with the individual songs. Click on any song and you get various options to view video, or lyrics, alternative version, photographs etc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
