I saw him in concert on his birthday last year, in Portland. It was a magical event and we all sang to him. Bummer to have to wait 6 more months for the release, though!

Nice. I know that we will have to wait 6 months but he always said that his dream was to released the best album of his career for his 50th birthday.

He said that the album will be released on the day of his 50th anniversary. (November 3)
which band are u talking bout
50th anniversary? I guess you mean birthday. That sucks - I thought it would be released sooner. Guess tour will start 2018.
Just for clarification for those new to Wilson, In Absentia is by his former band Porcupine Tree. Sadly on a long hiatus - probably a permanent one.

Sadly indeed. PT is much better than his solo stuff IMHO. I keep hoping he'll release a new solo album that's more than 5 bpm but nope... need morphine to appreciate every one. He had one of the finest modern drummers around in Gavin Harrison; I miss him.

Exactly. QFT
The first time I heard Drawing the Line I thought it was brilliantly simple and yet pretty damned complex.
I don't think the last two Wilson albums were slow or boring....there are some really hard hitting and complex tracks, with adventurous structures. Try the Home Invasion/Regret #9 Song from Hand.Cannot.Erase. Porcupine Tree was definitely an awesome band, but more in the vein of 90's alternative rock. I grew up with that music, but I guess Wilson got bored with that direction and wanted to explore his own thing.

I agree with you about Gavin, he's also my favorite drummer.
Did you know that he's now with Pineapple Thief ?

I did not, but I do now and I'll be giving that album a good listen on Tidal. Initial impressions are a very PT-like sound on the surface.

It's a great album and yes the sound is very influenced by PT.

I have heard both the Atticus and the Eikon and loved them both. Different sound signatures for different needs/wants/likes.
In your opinion he what are the needs/wants/likes that are better suited for eikon vs Atticus ?

You don't need to miss Gavin, he's drumming with King Crimson and they're touring.
