Hear New STEVEN WILSON Song “Pariah”

By Prog Sphere on May 9, 2017

Steven Wilson‘s new, fifth studio album To the Bone is scheduled for the August 18th release via Caroline International. A new song titled “Pariah,” which is a duet with singer Ninet Tayeb can be streamed below.

Wilson and Tayeb has previously collaborated on previous two SW releases: Hand. Cannot. Erase. and 4½.

Fusing driving futurist rock and spectral electronics to elegiac hyper-space ambience and dizzying, squalling guitars, To The Bone is Steven Wilson’s hat-tip to the hugely ambitious progressive pop records of his youth (think Peter Gabriel’s So, Talk Talk’s Colour of Spring, Tears for FearsSeeds of Love).

Lyrically, the album’s eleven tracks veer from the paranoid chaos of the post-truth era and the creeping self-loathing of the technology age to steely fly-on-the-wall observations of the everyday lives of religious fundamentalists with a welcome shot or two of wide-eyed escapism. Sonically and melodically stunning, To The Bone is a high definition snapshot of the disconcerting times we live in.
