A worthy heir to the spirit of Pink Floyd and a major figure of contemporary progressive rock, Steven Wilson managed to rekindle the flame of a genre worshipped by some and loathed by others… The former Porcupine Tree’s strength is his ability to inject a kind of pop spirit into his viscerally progressive compositions. And while his songs overflow with ripped solos, his bittersweet melodies remain very addictive. This is once again the case in To The Bone, the fifth studio album of the British musician. An extremely personal album, as Wilson himself explains he took inspiration from the bedside records of his childhood, in particular Peter Gabriel’s So, Kate Bush’s Hounds Of Love, Talk Talk’s The Colour Of Spring and Tears For Fears’ The Seeds Of Love. These references from the 1980s give a retro vibe to this impeccably produced album, which features XTC’s Andy Partridge, among others. You’ll come out of To The Bone with the feeling of having completed a beautiful trip back in time. A journey with plain influences wonderfully integrated by a musician equally talented for writing and producing. Enough to break the barriers of the rather reductive mold of progressive music. © CM/Qobuz
