Podcast appearances and mentions of Steven Wilson

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Gavin Rossdale — the iconic frontman of Bush — to discuss their powerful new album, I Beat Loneliness. Since bursting onto the scene in the early '90s with Sixteen Stone, Bush have become one of the most defining bands of the post-grunge era, selling over 20 million records worldwide and headlining stages across the globe. Now, on their 10th studio album, Gavin Rossdale and the band deliver some of their most urgent and personal work to date. I Beat Loneliness is a raw, defiant record that dives deep into themes of isolation, emotional endurance, and ultimately finding strength in vulnerability. From the fierce opener “Scars” to the anthemic title track and the poetic, socially charged “The Land of Milk and Honey,” the album showcases Bush's classic intensity while embracing new sonic textures and deeply personal storytelling. In this wide-ranging conversation, Gavin opens up about the emotional battles behind the songs, the cathartic power of turning pain into beauty, and the creative fire that keeps Bush evolving after nearly three decades. He also reflects on pivotal moments in his career and the excitement of embarking on a massive world tour with the new record. Tune in to Episode #236 of the XS Noize Podcast for an in-depth look at Bush's latest chapter — a story of resilience, reinvention, and the unwavering drive to connect through music.  Or listen via YouTube | Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | RSS – Find The XS Noize Podcast's complete archive of episodes here.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Scottish singer-songwriter Amy Macdonald to discuss her powerful new album, Is This What You've Been Waiting For? With over 12 million records sold worldwide and countless arena shows under her belt, Amy has become one of Scotland's most beloved artists. On her sixth album, she explores bold new sonic territory while staying true to her signature emotional honesty. Is This What You've Been Waiting For? is a defiant, uplifting record that tackles themes of survival, toxic friendships, and the courage to move forward. From the anthemic title track inspired by a moment of awe in Las Vegas, to the Springsteen-flavoured optimism of “Forward” and the fresh, danceable energy of “Can You Hear Me?”, the album reveals Amy at her most fearless and authentic yet. In this wide-ranging conversation, Amy opens up about her songwriting evolution since This Is The Life, staying connected to her fans across generations, and the excitement of returning to the stage for two massive hometown shows in Glasgow.

Duty geezer Leigh Allan and his son and west coast correspondent, Will, took the cowards' way out this week and recorded Sharing Sox before said Sox began a series at Dodger Stadium. Their prediction for that series may not be pretty, but the White Sox face no real pressure to win, as compared to when they next travel to Colorado and need to do well in order to avoid embarrassment. As for individuals, the chat naturally spent a lot of time on Luis Robert Jr. and the possibility there's no possibility of getting more than a basket of used baseballs for him by the trade deadline, despite at least one professional analyst saying he does have value, honest. That just as naturally led to discussion of other trade chips, such as they are, with pessimism anything could be had for Andrew Benintendi without eating bazillions of salary dollars. But there's optimism that some lesser lights who have played like brighter lights, such as Mike Tauchman and Adrian Houser, might do very well on the market, along with relievers Mike Vasil and Steven Wilson. That in turn led to a look at Baseball-Reference's team Wins Above Average by position chart, in which Sox starting pitchers and catchers fare well (Top 10), the much-maligned-before-the-season bullpen comes in about average (16th) and every other position rates 25th or worse. Once again, thank you, Colorado Rockies. Oh, yeah — we expressed admiration for Chase Meidroth, had our usual disagreement about the value of Miguel Vargas, continued to wonder how to evaluate the mysterious pluses and minuses of Lenyn Sosa.     Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Cam Muncey — guitarist, co-founder, and key songwriter of Australian rock legends Jet — to discuss his bold and unexpected debut solo album, Cam Muncey & the Delusions of Grandeur. Recorded in just 30 days with producer Jan Skubiszewski, Jet bassist Mark Wilson, and drummer Peter Marin, Delusions of Grandeur is an expansive, deeply personal record. Moving through dreamy shoegaze, melodic guitar-pop, 80s indie, swaying soul, and atmospheric art-rock, it draws on influences from The Smiths, Talk Talk, Curtis Mayfield, R.E.M., Mazzy Star, The War On Drugs, and Roxy Music. Guided by Muncey's warm vocals, the album invites listeners on a rich, genre-spanning journey. Highlights include “Already Gone,” “Don't Fade On Me,” “No Rock'n'Roll Star,” “I've Been Low,” “Breathing Again,” and the breezy pop of “Friendly.” In this candid conversation, Muncey shares what inspired him to step out on his own, the freedom he found creating without limits, and the lessons learned from touring with icons like Bruce Springsteen. Tune in to Episode #234 of the XS Noize Podcast for an honest, immersive look into Cam Muncey's world — a story of risk, reinvention, and musical discovery.  Or listen via YouTube | Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | RSS – Find The XS Noize Podcast's complete archive of episodes here.

In this special episode of The Learning Curve, guest co-host Ian Rowe interviews Steven Wilson, a senior fellow at Pioneer Institute and founder of the Ascend Charter Network. Their discussion centers on Wilson's new book, The Lost Decade, which concerns education's shift away from liberal arts and toward social justice ideology and anti-intellectualism. They examine the impact of this shift on student achievement, highlight successful education models such as classical schools and virtues-based curricula, and stress the importance of maintaining high academic standards. Wilson also touches on the classical learning test as a promising alternative to current, politicized assessments. Wilson and Rowe conclude with a call to focus on truth, knowledge, and honor in education to empower all students.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Sonya Madan and Glenn Johansson of Britpop icons Echobelly as they prepare to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their landmark second album ON with a UK tour this autumn. Released in 1995, ON became a defining record of the Britpop era — a Top 5 hit bursting with soaring melodies, razor-sharp lyrics, and timeless anthems like “Great Things.” To mark the milestone, Echobelly will perform the album in full across 14 dates in October and November 2025, alongside fan favourites and classics from their seven-album catalogue. Sonya and Glenn also reveal exclusive details about their upcoming eighth studio album, currently being recorded at London's legendary RAK Studios with acclaimed producer Danton Supple, known for his work with Coldplay, Morrissey, Patti Smith, and Dave Gahan. In a candid and wide-ranging conversation, the duo reflect on the optimism and bite of ON, their rise during the Britpop explosion, the highs and hurdles of their journey, and why Echobelly's message still resonates in today's world. It's a heartfelt look back — and an exciting glimpse forward.

On this special episode of Vinyl Verdict, Bell, Jamie and Adam go see a concert film! In a first for the podcast, we cover Pink Floyd's "Live At Pompeii" film, which was recently re-released to theatres in IMAX format. Along with restored visuals, the films' audio was reworked with a new 5.1 mix by Steven Wilson. Filmed partially inside the Amphitheatre of Pompeii and partially within a studio, the film explores their music prior to the release of "Dark Side of the Moon", and is bookended by a performance of the song Echoes, originally from the album "Meddle". But what will the boys think of the movie? Come along and find out, and be sure to let us know if you'd like us to cover other concert films and their soundtracks in the future!

L'hexagone était bien représenté dans ce numéro ! Et la relève est là avec un jeune groupe de rock progressif instrumental nommé HARKUS qui devrait attirer vos oreilles comme ils ont attiré mes cages à miel ! Originaire de Niort, ces trois jeunes gens viennent de remporter le tremplin de TERRES BRÛLEES, festival qui se tendra à Brûlain (Deux-Sèvres) du 18 au 20 juillet. Et si vous avez aimé l'extrait de leur album "Timeless" diffusé dans cet émission, je vous encourage à découvrir leur univers, ils se produiront le samedi 19 pour la 11ème édition de ce festival, attention talent !!  Un groupe arrive et un autre prend une retraite bien méritée : SILVERTRAIN. Phil York, chanteur et leader de la formation, a annoncé il y a quelques mois mettre fin à l'aventure qui aura débuté discographiquement en 1979 avec l'album "Witch Platform, Please ?" Retour ici sur ce 1er opus des 70's avant qu' un drame ne coupe la route à ces jeunes rockers...Mais c'était sans compter sur la dévotion et la détermination de Phil à relancer la machine dans  les années 2000 pour terminer en beauté avec l'ultime album "Bring Back The Silence", chaudement recommandé. Mais Phil n'a pas dit son dernier mot, un projet solo est en cours, à suivre donc... Connu comme membre de NEMO, je ne rendais pas compte avant de préparer cette émission que Jean-Pierre Louveton alias JPL avait sorti autant d'albums solo ! Son nouvel opus "Post-scriptum" qui vient de paraître et dont je vous avais présenté un premier extrait il y a quelques semaines est déjà  son 11ème bébé !! Sans compter son rôle de producteur, d'arrangeur pour pléthore d'artistes divers (même l'été !) et variés...Décidément quel talent !!  Pour terminer ce tour de France, GABRIEL KELLER dont je ne me lasse décidément pas de vous faire partager des extraits de son second album "Hope Despite Everything". Gabriel y aborde l'absurdité de la guerre et de ses conséquences individuelles, mais aussi dans la seconde partie de cette œuvre,  l'espoir, bienvenu dans une telle période d'actualité anxiogène...Musicalement inspiré par les années 60, 70 dont Les Beatles, Pink Floyd mais aussi par le rock prog contemporain de Porcupine Tree, Leprous, Ange ou la variété qualitative de Dutronc, Higelin ou Bashung, magnifié par la présence de talentueuses chanteuses et instrumentistes classiques : un album incontournable !    Petit détour par Cleveland, Ohio, pour y découvrir "Cinder", le 2ème album d'un groupe singulier : LUXUS TEMINUS, qui a la particularité de sonner métal...sans guitares !  Une prouesse, écoutez c'est assez bluffant !  Passage traditionnel en Italie, avec le projet ALBUS DIABOLUS, né dans la tête du métalleux  SAMAEL VON MARTIN, produit et arrangé par la talentueuse claviériste ELISA MONTALDO. Résultat attendu le 25 août avec la naissance de l'album "Compendio Esoterico Elletronico" mais en attendant, faites vous une idée avec un premier single extrait de ce travail également hors du commun !  Pour le reste, nous étions en territoire de naissance de notre musique préférée avec STEVE HACKETT, qui poursuit sa belle carrière, alternant les albums studios et les tournées, albums live reprenant le patrimoine de GENESIS. Ici, une célébration de l'ultime opus du groupe période Peter Gabriel en 1974 : "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" , enregistré à Londres en 2024 dans le cadre de sa tournée anniversaire consacrée à ce double-album concept, tournée qui se poursuit notamment en Amérique du Nord, Asie et Italie... Encore un Stéphane anglais : STEVEN WILSON, également sur les routes pour défendre son dernier album, le magnifique "The Overview" (peut-être avez vous eu la chance de le voir il y a quelques semaines salle Pleyel ?), mais qu'on retrouve ici en 2013 à travers "The Raven That Refused To Sing (And Other Stories)"  Il est une formation que j'avoue avoir trop peu diffusée dans cette émission (mais j'essaierais de me rattraper dans la prochaine saison) : MANFRED MANN'S EARTH BAND. Si les débuts étaient complexes, le groupe a su mener une belle carrière (officiellement pas terminée même si rien d'inédit n'est sorti depuis le débuts des années 2000). Ici pour un extrait de "The Good Earth" paru en l'An de Grâce 1974. Deux ans plus tôt, un groupe de trois musiciens sortent leur troisième album intitulé logiquement..."Trilogy". Il s'agit bien sur d'EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER dont les 2/3 nous ont malheureusement quittés...Reste une belle et originale discographie... Et puis une visite dans les 80's et l'album "The Present" des MOODY BLUES. Décennie qui débuta par le départ de son regretté claviériste fondateur Mike Pinder (il nous quittait à l'age de 82 ans l'année dernière), remplacé depuis le LP précédent par celui qui sortait alors  d'une d'une courte mais efficace collaboration avec Yes, le suisse Patrick Moraz...

He continues by discussing policy recommendations, calling for a renewed focus on rigorous academics to close achievement gaps and restore excellence and equality of opportunity in American education.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar chats with Saint Leonard—the visionary artist formerly known as Kieran Leonard—about the extraordinary journey that led to his third and most ambitious album, The Golden Hour. From recording his debut, Good Luck Everybody, at Stanley Kubrick's historic home to headlining sold-out shows at London's The Windmill and Third Man Records and supporting The Libertines on tour, Saint Leonard has built a reputation for fearless reinvention. In this fascinating conversation, Leonard shares the wild and deeply personal story behind The Golden Hour—an album shaped by Wild nights in Berlin's underbelly, Spiritual awakenings in India, Isolation in a GDR-era apartment during the pandemic, and Collaborations with Brian Eno and members of Fat White Family. Recorded at the legendary Hansa Studios in Berlin and Paul Epworth's Church Studios in London, The Golden Hour blends electronic textures, techno pulses, and Weimar cabaret flair—all woven together with Leonard's surreal storytelling and dark wit. Highlights include: Meeting Fat White Family by chance in Berlin and forming a band overnight Collaborating with Brian Eno and how it reshaped his sonic vision Wrestling with identity, paranoia, and rebirth during lockdown Using music to capture the absurdity of existence—with a wink The Golden Hour is not just an album—it's a full-blown experience: cinematic, unhinged, and unforgettable.

This week on Sinica, I chat with Jeffrey Ding, author of Technology and the Rise of Great Powers, a book that argues that a nation's ability to invent foundational technologies matters ultimately less in its overall national power than its ability to diffuse those "general purpose technologies," like electricity, digital technology, the internet, and — in the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution — Artificial Intelligence. I ask Jeff whether he thinks that China, with its powerful tech companies and its new enthusiasm for open source, may at last be closing what his book identifies as a diffusion deficit.2:19 – Jeff's argument for the power of diffusion in technological leadership6:07 – China's diffusion deficit 12:09 – Institutional factors that affect technology diffusion, and how culture can also play a role 19:49 – China's successes in (non-GPT) diffusion 24:29 – China's open source push 29:55 – Discussing He Pengyu's piece on semiconductors 32:19 – How Jeff might tweak his chapter on China in a second edition of Technology and the Rise of Great Powers Paying It Forward: Matt Sheehan of the Carnegie Endowment for International PeaceRecommendations:Jeff: The TV series The Pitt (2025 - ); and James Islington's The Will of the Many Kaiser: The album Perpetual Change by Jon Anderson and The Band Geeks; and Steven Wilson's new album, The OverviewSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Steven Wilson, Pioneer Institute scholar and researcher. A Simple Solution to Fix Failing Schools. Public education has been in the news these days, and everyone from the White House to the teacher unions is telling us what must be done to make sure our kids get the education they deserve. But just like securing the southern border was simpler than many claimed, the solution to under- performing schools is simpler than we've been told.
