lyrics

You discover a solitary ship, masts and rigging ready for a long voyage. Strangely there is no one to be seen, no people, captain or crew. Walking across the gang plank, you find a note pinned to the cabin door with a human bone.

It reads: “This is the ship of mystery guided by the life lights of invisible Gods. It will take you anywhere in the New World if you can answer one question: you play with a cube, often used, six different faces telling a different story. You may now be a little confused, but answer correctly, or end your bid for glory. Two opposite faces will add to the same, and this is the way to seek. Say it wrong and you travel in vain, answer now, let me hear you speak.

flies the coop

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

Dinosaurs and Dungeon Synth? PERFECT. This is the album that really got me into dungeon synth again and made me continue my dinosaur obsession. winstonrandom

My favorite out of the three I believe.The sound is more aggressive and fits the cover art of what looks like a perilous journey for the protagonist. Fits well at being the second in the trilogy of albums. Every song is good and the cassette tape and package is of good quality. A Great buy that deserves a vinyl edition. Joshua Laleina
