5 stars The Raven That Refused To Sing

This Steve Wilson solo album is very strong, with a definite concept album feel: themes coming and going throughout and holding the music together. Dazzling stuff - three songs get 5 star ratings!! The Watchmaker Luminol Drive Home (Demo)

I heard Steve Wilson play Watchmaker live and it scared me half to death. Very powerful performance (and loud) and disturbing visuals demonstrated a different side to the music I didn't get from the album. Conversely the album is much more layered and sophisticated in sound which were understandably missing live.

After dozens of plays, this album still keeps my attention. A classic I think. Five stars.
