Newest addition to the Wilson family. This is Lenny, a 3 year old rescue dog from Macedonia that had been treated very badly. We are gradually getting her to trust us, with the help of her little brother Bowie!

Opeth’s seventh album Damnation was released 20 years ago! Mostly recorded in Gothenburg, Sweden during the same sessions as their previous album Deliverance, it was later finished and mixed at my studio back in the UK.

Dear @WolfVanHalen , apologies, no disrespect was meant to your father, an extraordinary musician. I personally never owned any @VanHalen records and didn’t ever get into the style of playing, but he was clearly an incredible innovator.

While searching my cupboards for memorabilia for a book project yesterday, I found this. My 20 year old self scribbled out these cheerful words for a song called “A Radioactive Toy” 30 years ago, and in doing so kickstarted a project called Porcupine Tree.

Back in 1996, I worked hard on the guitar solo of @PorcupineTree 's 'Dark Matter' to make it tell the right kind of “story", starting off minimal and languid, then becoming more intense and animated. Here’s me trying to remember how I played it, with some mistakes naturally!

2006 at a show in the US, someone handed me a paper saying "Coldplay are Wankers." Liking Coldplay I held it up to question it but a photo of that moment went viral attributing the sentiment to me. I still to this day get asked in interviews about my legendary hatred of Coldplay.

I grew up surrounded by beautifully recorded records. I fell in love with the notion of making records, rather than being a musician. I wanted to be an 'auteur', someone like Jeff Lynne (Electric Light Orchestra) producer, writer, guitar player, vocalist.
