Pacific Codex Review

Pacific Codex is the name of the seventh studio album released by British musician, songwriter and producer Steven Wilson under the pseudonym Bass Communion.

The album consists of two discs containing the title track mixed in Stereo in a CD and the 5.1 Surround Sound mix in a DVD-A. The song can be split in two sections as displayed in the cover of the Equation Records edition. All sounds were generated from recordings of Steve Hubback's metal scupltures, played by Steven Wilson and Theo Travis. This is the Bass Communion release with the most lavish packaging. It comes in a hard sleeve cover and contains the CD and DVD in a gatefold sleeve and a 36 page booklet with images of the sea. Only 975 copies were printed and they sold-out within two days after the release date.
