Steven Wilson’s sixth album, The Future Bites, explores how the human brain adapts in the Internet age. Following To The Bone’s focus on post-truth and fake news, this album dives into 21st-century addictions like retail therapy, social media manipulation, and loss of individuality—not as dystopia, but as a reflection of today. Musically, it shines with electronic textures, soaring acoustics, driving Motorik beats, and murky funk. Recorded in London and co-produced with David Kosten, it’s Wilson’s most polished and inventive work yet.
