issue four preview:

       

Issue 4 of Carbon Nation contains an exclusive interview with Steven Wilson. It includes topics such as:

Whether Steven is worried about Deadwing being labelled a concept album:

Not really because it isn't.  A concept album to a lot of people means an album that tries to tell a story and has a narrative through it, this doesn't.  A concept album in the sense of Tommy, The Wall or Quadrophenia where you actually get told a story in sequence, this is not.

Whether a film of Deadwing is feasible:

It's certainly feasible.  I wouldn't have spent that much time on it if I didn't think it was.  It's not a particularly high budget film in the sense that it's not got lots of special effects and explosions and stunt scenes. It's a very claustrophobic, dreamlike, melancholic film.  It's not commercial.  It wouldn't have mainstream appeal, no, it would be more of a kind of European arthouse thing.

All this and much more in the full interview!
