NICE. Can't wait for this one!!!!

 

The official announcement from Steven's website:

There is now a website for the forthcoming SW solo record, which will bear the overall title "Grace For Drowning". Over the next weeks leading up to release, audio, video and other information about the album will be posted to this site, so keep an eye on it:

First clip sounds like Bass Communion
Nice

 

Me thinks that the track following this will come in very loud and crunchy.

 

I agree - I was waiting for one of those guitars from Continuum 2 to come crashing in!

Awesome news! I assume he will be playing a few dates on the East coast of the US, so I will definitely attend at least one of the shows. He has also compiled an impressive group of musicians for his touring band.

 

The publisher of Carbon Nation (www.carbon-nation.co.uk), Simon Clarke, passed along the following dates, which I suspect will be among those officially announced tomorrow:

Tuesday, November 8th /// Orlando, FL - House of Blues
Thursday, November 10th /// Baltimore, MD - Ram's Head Live
Friday, November 11th /// NY, NY - Best Buy Theater
Saturday, November 12th /// Philadelphia, PA - Temple Performing Arts Center
Sunday, November 13th /// Boston, MA - Berklee Performance Center
Friday, November 18th /// Chicago, IL - Park West

I have heard the entire double album, and it's an absolute masterpiece, you are going to really like this, including the 23 minute epic "Raider II", and it has "dynamics"!!

Cheers,

I hope to see some West Coast dates added.

 

Thanks for the post. I am really looking forward to this, I still have more PT to discover but it will be nice to hear his latest creations as well.
