5 stars Here it is ! The album that I wanted the most for 2015 ! Two years after the amazing "The Raven That Refused To Sing", Wilson come back. And he shows that he is more creative than ever.

First Regret : An introduction song which is very cool, with gloomy piano like at the end of Nine Inch Nails' Closer, but with a typical Wilson melody. A great opening.

3 Years Older : One of the longest song of the album, and also one of the best. Pure prog, with great melodies, furious and calm sections, really cool.

Hand Cannot Erase : The title track is in fact the worst track on the album. But it's not bad. It's just pop. Pop is not really a problem, but the others songs are better, that's all.

Perfect Life : A atmospheric song, pleasant and really apperciable.

Routine : A 9 minutes great prog song, with beautiful piano and vocal work.

Home Invasion : One of the best tracks. Begin like a jazz rock jam, with awesome keyboard riffs, and great vocals.

Regret#9 : A great synth solo and a f**in amazing guitar solo. Just beautiful.

Transience : An acoustic interlude, very nice.

Happy Returns : A more pop song that I didn't really enjoy.

Ascendant Here On... An atmospheric final, great closing for a great album.

A wonderful album by the king Wilson !

5 stars !
