Storm Corrosion / Steven Wilson

Steven Wilson & Mikael Åkerfeldt have been two of the most influential & revered artists of the past 30 years. Responsible for inspiring an entire generation of songwriters & musicians, between them Wilson & Åkerfeldt redefined the prog-metal genre in the early 21st century, chiefly with Opeth's 2001 magnum opus 'Blackwater Park', which Wilson produced & Porcupine Tree's 2002 classic 'In Absentia' (the follow up album 'Deadwing' album also featured guest guitar/vocals from Åkerfeldt). With a shared passion for experimenting, the pair have created some of rock's most genre bending music of recent years.Amongst that list is their 2012 eponymous debut collaboration 'Storm Corrosion'. A passion project recorded at Wilson's No Man's Land studio in Hertfordshire in the UK, 'Storm Corrosion' surprised fans by serving as a vehicle for the pair to explore their shared love of experimental folk, soundtrack music & the avant-garde, not to mention a nod to their love of artists like Scott Walker, Talk Talk & Ennio Morricone.
