He’s in his mid 40s and he has several successful bands and solo projects on his resume but that hasn’t stopped Steven Wilson from seeking out new people to work with. It seems that every time he finds someone with similar tastes and passions he immediately wants to start a band. Storm Corrosion is yet another collaboration, this time with Mikael Akerfeldt, the front man of band Opeth.
The album was released in early 2012 was seen as a continuation of what the band members are calling a trilogy of each of their last releases and the Storm Corrosion release. To feel the true effects of the music you’ll have to listen to all three albums but you can appreciate it either way. Steven Wilson’s capacity for work and creation is truly amazing and he must get such satisfaction from constantly putting together new music and working with new sounds.
