Rock / Neo Prog / Alternative / Prog Rock The debut solo album by Steven Wilson is quite simply an essential release, a huge
sonic adventure recorded all over the world and featuring many guest
musicians. Disc one is the already acclaimed 10 track album on stereo
CD, and disc two is a DVDA containing the album in higher resolution 24
bit stereo and 5.1 surround sound (in high res DVDA and DTS version
compatible with any DVD player), an 18 minute extract from ‘Insurgentes’
film, and 2 album trailers.
2 Disc Set (CD + DVDA) with a 24 page booklet packaged in a Super jewel case with
slipcase. Announcing Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson's debut solo album
'Insurgentes'. Acclaimed for his work with Porcupine Tree, Opeth and
Anja Garbarek amongst others, Steven Wilson's debut album Insurgentes
contains 10 new tracks that range from ballads and anthems to all-out
industrial noise assaults. The dark, cinematic and richly textured album
represents two years' worth of creative output and numerous recording
sessions worldwide in studios from Mexico City to Japan and Israel.
While Wilson is a member of several bands including Blackfield, No- Man
and Bass Communion, he explains that "when I began writing these songs, I
quickly realized that they would be best suited to an album under my
own name. It was an intuitive, almost unconscious writing process that
resulted in a kind of 'poetry of melancholy.'" Wilson recruited a
stellar cast of guests to work on the album including bassist Tony
Levin, Porcupine Tree drummer Gavin Harrison, and keyboardist Jordan
Rudess (Dream Theater), alongside Japanese Koto player Michiyo Yagi,
British guitarist Sand Snowman, and jazz flautist and saxophonist Theo
Travis. The final product inhabits a similar experimental realm as
recent albums by Thom Yorke, Portishead, and Nine Inch Nails.
This DVD-Audio 5.1 mix has become the new sonic standard by which all surround recordings should be measured.
From a music perspective there isn't much more to add (Hans Gruber
review here is very good), it's Steven Wilson at its creative best -
every song is beautifully conceived and executed. But also the music was
conceived from scratch in a way that it could really exploit surround
sound. I listened to the download of the album for about 12 times before
I got this DVD-A. As usual, Steven's songs grow on you with every
listen, and you start to understand and enjoy them more over time.
However, what makes this album really shine is the 5.1 mix:
1. The sounds balance between the front, center and rear speakers is impeccable
2. The album explores the complete spectrum of the human capacity for
audio, in many cases all sound frequencies (from very low to very high -
almost as high as white noise) are beautifully displayed at the same
time!
3. Really noisy passages are followed by very quiet and haunting passages, the contrast is mind-numbing and beautiful
4. When you play the album out loud, the workout that the subwoofer gets
is unbelievable. You better not have glass or breakable objects within
distance!
Steven makes a point that in today's iPod generation, the true enjoyment
of listening to an album with the right sound quality and fidelity, and
enjoying the accompanying artwork has been lost. Downloading individual
songs can never transmit the ideas that the artist puts together when
creating a concept album. And even though downloads are getting better
in terms of better sound quality options, they will never equal the
awesome quality that Advanced Resolution surround gives you.
Well, Steven backs up with words with this masterpiece. You can feel the
countless number of hours that he spent conceving, writing, playing,
mixing and producing the songs. It is pure quality and pure magic.
If you don't have a 5.1 system (DVD-A or DVD-V DTS), go get a good one
and play this album. You will be amazed and you will never look at music
the same way ever again!

NO A LA LEY LASSALLE
Es broma, desde que tengo las hernias no paro de leer cosas y parece ser que cada vez se opera a menos gente porque a la larga, en unos 4 o 5 años, los tratamientos con cirugía y los conservadores ofrecen los mismos resultados si te cuidas un poco. La operación ofrece unos resultados más rápidos peros, si las dejas tranquilas, la mayoría de las hernias se reabsorben y dejan de molestar. En mi caso, dado que el dolor desapareció al poco de tratármelo en serio en un hospital (llevaba ya tres meses arrastrando una pierna y aguantando antes de ingresar), es casi seguro que no va a hacer falta cirugía. Cada vez me muevo más y mejor y mi mejor terapia y el estimulante más poderoso, aparte de la familia, es la música como ésta que me pone en marcha cuando no tengo ni ganas ni fuerza.
