Weakest song on here is Same Asylum as Before (rehashed riff, not so on the spot vocals). Detonation is pretty cool, but seeing how well he pulls off his pop attempts, it's understood why it's not emerging as a ''highlight'' (for me, the highlight here is Pariah, Song of I, and Permanating)
H.C.E. has no weak songs, what are you people inhaling?

Gotta say, as much as I’m mixed on the rest of the Future Bites singles, Man of the Poeple (which just premiered today) is definitely the best one. The first half sounds like something No-Man would have done during the Schoolyard Ghosts era

Man of the People is SW mimicking SW. And he lacks the voice to pull off those wails. For me, best songs on the album are ''Self'', ''King Ghost'' and ''Eminent Sleaze'', but with varying degrees of success.

I heard his new album is inspired by Autechre. Anyone can confirm? If so I'm pumped!!

I heard from trustable sources (my friend Sean) that this new Steven and the Wilsons album is gonna break ground and that will cause shockwaves in the electronic genre for a long time.

Having heard the entire album multiple times, Man of the People is my 2nd favorite, 1st favorite being the closer Count of Unease. Both are very Talk Talk influenced imo

Amazing how each of the solo albums manages to have worse album art than the one before. How long can he keep this up?

Everthing up until and including HCE is legit as album art imo. And I also dig TTB's cover. The new one tho looks bland. And it's the concept, but ... meh

Problem with the new album's concept is that it'd likely work better with a more subtle approach. But lyrically-wise, Steven Wilson has the subtlety of a screaming gorilla.
The excerpts I've heard seem like it's gonna be real hit and miss. King Ghost was the most interesting of the songs to be demoed, it's obvious he still has the knack to make these moody atmospheric pieces. Personal Shopper also has a very interesting feel despite the corny lyrics but Eminent Sleaze seem like a song that's supposed to be part of a bigger picture, but on its own, it's so uninteresting and monotone that I don't quite get it.
I'm still curious to hear the rest. To The Bone was pretty polarising but I liked most of it. Hopefully this new album will be the same.

Eminent Sleaze and Follower are my two least favorite Wilson songs I think. 12 Things I Forgot is the best Blackfield song not on their new album. Personal Shopper doesn't really do it for me, would like the bridge a lot if there was no spoken word, cause it sounds like The Sky Moves Sideways. King Ghost is a neat little ambient electronic track.

@Talons I was looking forward to Count of Unease when you told me you liked it but it really passed by without making any impression.
@Omair Yeah that's one galloping bass line, but for 10 minutes? Only luminol has that capacity!

Kind of excited for a succinct 40 minute Wilson project, and I dig the singles (though I vastly prefer Personal Shopper at its 6 minute music video edit). But after nearly 4 years of waiting? Kind of a sigh on that one.
