    I normally hate it when people fancy themselves as intellectuals, but Steven Wilson is so right it isn’t even funny.

    When is this movie going to be released on DVD? I just got Anesthetize the other day through amazon. co. uk and it just blew me away. WOW GREAT JOB LASSE! The most important progressive rock band in the history of music (in my opinion) are: Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree and ELP.

    @siksik237 Steven wilson is the initiator and creator of the new quantum rock, he is the best musician in the world enough to listen Insurgentes with good headphones to notice the new trend that I call the quantum rock

    I think i’m going to give up on waiting for this DVD and just act like the whole movie was this 1:59 clip. (along with the other trailers)

    Great stuff man!

    @xlicix youre right and so is Wilson, digital era of music is not bad thing at all, but in an interview about iPods and destroying them he said something like “its not wrong listening to compressed music from mp3 players but it has become too easy to close yourself into your own little bubble”. its like S. L. Jackson said in snakes on the plane, enough is enough.

    @JohnyVirgil There was a screening of the documentary in Monterrey, México, where I live (: I bought the CD+DVDA and it did not include the extract of the documentary, I guess they sell a different version of the album in México and the US

  21. JohnyVirgil Says:

    @xlicix Oh, awesome! How did you see the whole thing? Or, well, where can I watch the whole thing? ;-) I watched this and the extract on the Insurgentes 5. 1 CD. To my knowledge the DVD documentary in full wasn’t released, I’d love to watch it.

  22. xlicix Says:

    @JohnyVirgil If you watch the whole documentary, you’ll see he’s not completely against the digital era. He knows what it has done for music and hm and he mentions it.

    I appreciate the nice respomnses to my earlier comments but I don’t think those people got the point. Moneygrubbers in suits who are more interested in selling toothpaste than they are in music pick what gets “out there”. Just in my 50 years there have been countless bands that may have dramatically change the face o music that went unheard because the suits couldn’t attach a product to them.

  24. viewerone1 Says:

    Totally makes sense. I think this theory could be expanded beyond music engrossing all media, especially movies and politics. Manufactured like cheap furniture, these “products” we are expected to adore simply because the sovereign media gives them attention. Completely fake, but we still buy it. This pisses me off. We really should listen to the “kids in their bedroom” instead.

  25. JohnyVirgil Says:

    @CreamyBabe07 Well, everyone who gives a shit about music should care. I personally both agree and disagree with the points Steve has been making. I agree what he says here, but I disagree with the attacks he has on the digital age. I don’t think he realizes just what it’s done for music in general, and him. The digital age with ipods and downloading makes music more accessible and it helps people who are passionate about music get there stuff out there. The IPod and Download era will save music
