Wilson, Steven Hand. Cannot. Erase

2015, HAND.CANNOT.ERASE. is a dynamic 11-song conceptual set, bringing together diverse aspects of his expansive sonic history. Recorded in September 2014 at AIR Studios London, HAND.CANNOT.ERASE features the guitar-driven power, infectious melodies, and progressive sensibility of Steven's sprawling body of work. Wilson describes the collection as inspired by a news story, of a woman who died in her apartment and went undiscovered for three years. The basic concept of the record it's about a woman growing up, who goes to live in the city, very isolated, and she disappears one day and no one notices. Now, your initial reaction when you hear a story like that is, ´Ah, little old bag lady that no one notices; no one cares about`. But she was young; she was popular; she was attractive; she had many friends; she had family, but for whatever reason, nobody missed her for three years. The dramatic theme of HAND.CANNOT.ERASE. is punctuated with moments of rhythmic urgency, somber introspection, and soaring beauty.
