about

*purchase includes a bonus download A4 album poster (high-quality JPG), featuring album artwork and tracklist*

Graffiti on a railway underpass catches your eye; ‘Another Ruined Landscape’ it proclaims. Looking across at the neighbouring industrial estate, you can see its point.

The nearby public footpath channels you between tightly packed industrial units. Wire fencing protects you from skips overflowing with broken glass, blue drums of unlabelled waste and decaying machinery. Extractor fans drone and drip and whirr and groan. Wraiths of snagged plastic sheeting claw at you as you pass. Another Ruined Landscape, indeed.

The footpath expels you on to the raised bank of the river Stour; a natural barrier and border between the Southfolk and the East Saxons. Peering through the haze on your right you can see the distant cranes at Felixstowe as they pierce the heavens. Twisting your gaze left brings a pillbox into focus; open to the elements and gorged with beer cans. Nearby lies the White Bridge sluice as it rests; resolute and impassable. Another Ruined Landscape.

Finally, you drop your eyes and marvel at what the Stour has revealed at low tide. Unnavigable channels and creeks and rills and glorious, glorious mud flats. Birds rise and scream and fall and rest amongst its flotsam. Halyards clank, clank, clank their unsteady rhythms. A near-empty train clacks along with a solitary, masked, passenger staring blankly out at the bleak beauty of Another Ruined Landscape.

Drink it in.

It is yours.

This album invites you to experience two states of mind. The first track transmits tranquility and a feeling of well-being, and the second is darker and more meditative. I strongly recommend indulging in the experience! Kosmik Jukebox
