    I actually think Steven is quite an underrated guitar player. Would never describe him as a “limited” guitar player. Seen him live many times, he never misses a beat. His guitar tone sounds fantastic and he can riff with the best of them.

      some of my favorite solos in his discography are his own solos, waiting phase 1, shesmovedon, sound of muzak. Although Guthrie is the best improv guitarist on the planet id still take those early ptree solos

      And the way he articulates himself, it’s so balanced. A walking dictionary and yet straightforward, the guy wasn’t Charterhouse material for one (no slight). Prog rock’s so associated with high-prow types and yet here’s Steven. Relatable to a working class prog nerd like myself 😂

    I'm very excited for his new album. His recent "digital" style in combination with his earlier-album substance sounds like a good combination. I love everything he's done so far, even though I do prefer Raven/GFD over TFB. We got a rock album from him this year with PT, so I'm very pleased all around.

    I wouldn't tell Picasso how to paint--he's saying that his last records are not so conceptual in comparison, have to hear the next one to judge but truth be told, though, "The Future Bites" is an otherworldly album that I just can't stop listening to. Yes, the music had a "pop sensibility" to it, but it was entirely unique in my humble opinion. King Ghost, Follower, too many great songs to list...I am always excited to hear his next ideas. Go Steven! 👏

    Interesting that Steven describes these analog synths and certain plugins in this way while wearing his David Bowie shirt because it was David Bowie who once said about analog synths something to the effect of "It's not necessarily a string sound or a horn sound that I'm looking for. Anyone can have that. It's discovering all the little bleeps and farts along the way."
