    OPETH’S MIKAEL KERFELDT + PORCUPINE TREE’S
    STEVEN WILSON TEAM UP FOR STORM CORROSION


    Storm Corrosion

    Roadrunner Records is pleased to announce the signing of Storm Corrosion.

    Storm Corrosion is the long-discussed and highly anticipated collaboration between two of the modern progressive rock scene’s most innovative and multi-talented artists: Mikael kerfeldt of Opeth and Porcupine Tree‘s Steven Wilson. The pair will release Storm Corrosion on April 24 via Roadrunner Records.

    A little background information on the genesis of this project: kerfeldt and Wilson have been friends since the late ’90s, when Wilson co-produced Opeth’s revered Blackwater Park album. Over the years, they’d often spoken of working on a project together, but it wasn’t until recently that they managed to make something happen, when Mikael flew over to visit Steven in the U.K. and they ended up in Wilson’s home studio throwing ideas around. That visit was the nascence of a whole self-titled album, written and produced by the pair, and mixed by Wilson.

    The sound of Storm Corrosion can best be described as enchanting, orchestral, ambient, epic (half the album’s tracks clock in around the 10-minute mark) and nothing short of surprising to the new ear. However, the musicians’ respective fanbases will be primed to appreciate the new output, with Wilson’s recent solo album, Grace for Drowning, and Opeth’s Heritage having brought them to a logical place to understand Storm Corrosion. This eponymous collection is almost viewed as one side of a musical triangle.
