The sixth album from this artist from Great Britain.
Steven Wilson did the guitars and main vocals here.
He got help from a dozen of guests who added drums, percussion, bass, chapmann stick, guitars, keyboards, harmonica, spoken words and vocals.
Steven Wilson returned again after the very good 4.5 album from 2016.
He also returned with a more stripped down setup. Less musicians and a more concentrated sound.
The music is not that different. The music are mid-tempo art-rock with a lot of Pink Floyd influences. There are also some pretty strong post-rock influences. Sigur Ros is a band which has hugely influenced this album.
The lead vocals is a mix of Steven's own vocals and Ninet Tayeb's female vocals. Her vocals is more wailing than Steven's vocals. They are also very good.
The music is more based on moods than making good songs. The songs are indeed good on this one hour long album. The quality is not as good here as on the previous albums though.
This is still a good album and one well worth checking out.
