Steven Wilson: 4½ La version sur Le vinyle LP en Norme édition. Cette édition particulière a été publiée en Europe et Royaume-Uni dans la maison d'édition Kscope Le 22 janvier 2016.

New mini-album by Steven Wilson Multi-instrumentalist, producer, sound engineer and founder of the English progressive rock band Porcupine Tree Steven Wilson returns in 2016 with a new album. "4 1/2" is the title of the mini-album, which features a total of six songs. It is a sort of interlude that follows his fourth solo album "Hand." from 2015. Can't. Erase." and a precursor to his fifth LP, which will be released at some point - hence the title "4 1/2." The six tracks, which run a total of 37 minutes, include two brand new songs, two outtakes from Hand. Can't. Erase" and one from "Raven That Refused To Sing," Wilson's third solo record. Another highlight of "4 1/2" is a version of "Don't Hate Me". Based on a live recording, the 1998 Porcupine Tree song was recorded by Steven Wilson with Israeli singer Ninet Tayeb. For the recording of "4 1/2", Wilson was assisted by musicians Guthrie Govan (guitar), Nick Beggs (bass), Marco Minnemann (drums), Adam Holzman (keyboards) and Theo Travis (flute/saxophone). Fans and lovers of Steven Wilson's music should take note: With "4 1/2", Steven Wilson is shortening the time until his next solo album. Waiting can be so enjoyable. Review "'4 1/2' lives up to expectations: a virtuosic yet substantial art rock conglomerate that sits between Pink Floyd, Yes and King Crimson." (Stereo, February 2016) "In addition to these four tracks, 4 ½ also delivers "Vermillioncore," material from the making of The Raven That Refused To Sing, and a nearly 10-minute reinterpretation of Porcupine Tree's 1998 track "Don't Hate Me," on which Wilson is joined by Israeli singer Ninet Tayeb - also on Hand. Can't. Erase. On two songs - supports him." (Good Times, February/March 2016) "... complex arrangements, sweeping instrumental passages, harmonies with dramatic twists and melancholic moods - as usual, cleanly produced. A good shortening of the waiting time for the fifth work." (Audio, February 2016) "These 'outtakes' are also perfectionist miniatures from this energetic Brit, who plays pleasantly loose with the prog-rock idiom." (Stereo Play, February 2016)
