Plastic Hollywood necrophiliac celebrity blues

by Jake Edwards on June 28, 2009

In the sixties people were mobilised against the war in vietnam, youth culture was finding it`s footing…but the world has been reduced to a quintessence of dust & there`s a recession – perhaps it`s economical, perhaps it`s intellectual, perhaps it`s at the heart of everything, Mr. Kurtz – quantum thought, belief and mysticism. Does anyone read Kerouac or Steinbeck?  What the heck? Is everyone wrapped up in a load of irreverent Hollywood plastic surgery necrophiliac celebrity lifestyle televisual bullshit? Another day another city…. or, lost in the wilderness writing lyrics of disposition and seeking unification through re-immersion, or reconnection with landscape…

“The project has gone beyond having a single production value input for me, I`m actually really taking the project beyond the simple idea of it as a product from or for the studio, it`s become more than a product that`s just x, y, z; I’ve invested myself completely into it, it`s become a spiritual and personal project.

“I think I spent so long working on the songs, investing them with time and travel, that they grew out of real experience, the road, loneliness, instability and at the time a connection with only the land.”
