Steven Wilson - The Overview
Steven Wilson releases his eighth studio album, The Overview.
The two-track, 42-minute album is inspired by the “overview effect” experienced by astronauts looking back at the Earth from space and sees Wilson return to expansive, progressive music, a genre he helped redefine and repopularise with both his solo and Porcupine Tree releases.
The two lengthy, ambitious tracks are each made up of distinctive musical sections that flow from one to the other, playing out as unique and continuous pieces incorporating everything from glistening electronics to post-rock and beyond. The album also features a set of lyrics by XTC’s Andy Partridge that help drive the story in ‘Objects Outlive Us.
Available on limited Mint coloured vinyl.
Tracklist:
1. Objects Outlive Us

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
