Steven Wilson

Barely a year after his last visit, Steven Wilson is back in Belgium, this time for a concert at the famous Ancienne Belgique in Brussels. The British artist is currently basking in the success of his latest album, ‘Hand. Cannot. Erase’, which has outsold all his other LP's, including those from his previous band, the legendary PORCUPINE TREE. In his luggage, he's also bringing us a brand new EP,  ‘4 ½’. This mini-album brings together “orphan” compositions that had not found favour on the two previous releases and a cover of a PORCUPINE TREE song, ‘Don't Hate Me’.

Life of Agony & Second Function

Even though LIVE OF AGONY currently cannot brace oneself up for writing new songs, nothing can prevent them from rocking the stage and perform together. After a very successful sold-out show in Hamburg in June 2015 the band is now back on headlining tour. As I really loved LIFE OF AGONY’s first two albums I was more than eager to finally see the band live. Well, about time regarding that the release of the first album was 23 years ago.
