📀 Album

🎶 About the Track
“Objects Outlive Us” is a multi-part suite (around 23 minutes long), and “Meanwhile” is one of its internal movements.
The whole piece explores themes like:
- Time passing
- Human mortality
- Memory and legacy
- How objects (things we create, own, leave behind) outlast us
“Meanwhile” acts as a reflective, atmospheric bridge within the suite — more ambient and emotional compared to some heavier or more rhythmic sections.
🎧 Musical Style
- Cinematic soundscapes
- Progressive rock structure
- Ambient textures
- Subtle electronic elements
Steven Wilson blends progressive rock with modern production, creating something immersive and philosophical.
