Blackfield is a collaborative music project created by English musician Steven Wilson (founder of Porcupine Tree) and Israeli rock artist Aviv Geffen. Together, they have released six studio albums under the Blackfield name. The first two albums, Blackfield and Blackfield II, featured Wilson and Geffen working as equal creative partners. On the third and fourth albums, Welcome to My DNA and Blackfield IV, Geffen assumed a leading role, writing nearly all of the material and contributing a larger share of the lead vocals. Although Wilson announced his departure from the project in 2014, he later returned as an equal collaborator for the fifth album, Blackfield V, released on 10 February 2017. A sixth album, For the Music, followed on 4 December 2020, with Geffen again taking the primary creative lead. In 2000, Geffen—an admirer of Porcupine Tree—invited the band to perform in Israel. This led to a friendship between Geffen and Wilson and eventually to their first musical collaborations. Geffen contributed backing vocals to two tracks on Porcupine Tree’s In Absentia: “The Sound of Muzak” and “Prodigal.” Seeking to expand his audience beyond Israel, Geffen proposed creating a joint project with Wilson, which became Blackfield. Initially conceived as a short EP planned for release in 2001, the project grew into a full-length album. The self‑titled debut, Blackfield, was ultimately released in 2004.
