For everyone who's asking, this is from Steven Wilson's Insurgentes documentary which, if you truly care about the artist, will not be downloaded illegally, but purchased right here: http://www.burningshed.com/store/kscope/product/272/2332/

All copyrights belong to KScope and Steven Wilson.
I only posted this because I knew people would enjoy this, and it would make them buy Steven Wilson's DVD. I love this man's work and I feel he deserves your £11.99.

  • Alright everyone's gonna bash me for this... I don't like Steven Wilson. I love Porcupine Tree but I don't like Steven as a guy. He just seems so uptight and snooty. He looks like it in this video. I saw Porcupine Tree a couple years ago and he barely talked to the crowd at all, and he just had this "I'm better than all of you" look on his face all the time. I dunno. Somebody has to agree with me lol.

  • @lasoogneypubes I can somehow see where you are coming from though, if I step out of my shoes for a bit. On Insurgentes, Steven does criticise lots of things in music or how people choose to experience music nowadays, almost like he's preaching. But in the right groups of music fans, he has reached that level of status where many people will respect him for it. After all, everyone's entitled to an opinion, also Steven. But it's not cos I'm a fan or you are, that we have to agree with him.

  • Thank you so much for uploading the vid and putting the magazine cover link in the description! Took me ages to find it! :)

  • I want to see that akerfeldt pic with the sword wtf

  • Steven is right, Metal now is just cookie monster vocs and generic riffs, it is cliche

  • well that ones getting framed on my wall (couldent stop laughing:)

  • nice eyebrows Jonas

  • @lasoogneypubes

    Well, I understand your bad impression, but you should really meet him and talk to him, because he really is a great guy :)

  • Any album cover by In Flames or Dark Tranquillity is far from boring or tasteless.

  • Steven is a douche who takes himself way to fucking seriously... God forbid metal looks "evil" or "silly" from time to time.. Its all in good fun, who gives a shit.

  • @CreeCore94 To some they suck, to many others they don't... it's all a point of view and taste.
