Our Take

Steven Wilson's latest offering, "The Future Bites," is a sonic rollercoaster that takes listeners on a journey through his musical evolution. The album is a futuristic blend of electronic and rock influences, with Wilson's signature melancholic lyrics and intricate instrumentation taking center stage.

From the opening track, "Unself," Wilson sets the tone for the album with pulsating synths and haunting vocals that draw the listener in from the very first note. As the album progresses, tracks like "King Ghost" and "12 Things I Forgot" showcase Wilson's ability to craft catchy melodies that stick in your head long after the music has stopped.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Personal Shopper," a satirical take on consumerism in the digital age. With its infectious beat and clever lyrics, this track is sure to be a fan favorite.

Overall, "The Future Bites" is a bold and experimental album that sees Steven Wilson pushing the boundaries of his musical style. While some long-time fans may be taken aback by the departure from his usual sound, the album is a testament to Wilson's versatility as an artist. Love it or hate it, one thing is for sure - "The Future Bites" is a captivating listen that will leave you wanting more.
