It doesn't need to be good, it's Steven Wilson.
But I didn't like it much either. |
OMFG, did you just wrote STEVEN WILSON? some reviewer nobody cares about: 5/5: a masterpiece of modern literature. a pretentious and retarded website: 9.63/10: even though Steven has refused my marrige proposals just because I am a man, I cannot contain my emotions whenever I read his name. somewhere in the blogsphere 6/5: yes, I know what you will say, but what can I do? The guy's name is pure genious!

IDK about you, but I find that there is a lot of difference between a person of 13 and another of 16 years.

I just like every track. Saw it live, listened to it more.
The first CD is flawless, second one - is just good. Raider II drags for too long.

I had to change my underwear because such an angelic name in such large and demanding letters was simply too much for my manliness to handle.

The first half of Raider II annoys me because there's a part that sounds too much like the title track in Lizard.
Em suma, Grace for Drowning isn't very good.

Steven Wilson makes a lot of quality work.

Protip: Grace for Drowing = mid 90's Porcupine Tree + early 70's KC. Also, you should avoit writing His name otherwise I'd have to grab a towel.

Heehee, he does seem to get that degree of reverence.
Well, I don't know it by the track names yet. I just know I'm hearing a lot of jamming, a lot of Radiohead hand-me-downs and a guy with an uninteresting voice.

I've said this for a while now. Lightbulb Sun, with Signify mixed with some King Crimson. Great combo, does it well.
Also - i don't hear much Radiohead influence. Maybe his debut, on a few songs.

I'd say it's more Sky Moves Sideways and Signify with a bit of Up the Downstairs. I don't hear much of the late 90's stuff, though.

Grace for Drowning would easily be 4 stars if it wasn't drowned in 40+ minutes of melancholic tedium.
