Concept album alert!

Quote :

The songs on Heartland form a narrative concerning a "young, ultra-violent farmer" named Lewis, commanded by an all-powerful narrator named Owen [...] the songs are one-sided dialogues with Lewis speaking to his creator.

Pallett has noted that the album was "most inspired" by British electronic band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark.

11 minutes to go.

10 minutes to go!

Now, just a quick reminder.

This is my favourite album of the past few years.

So, behave yourselves.

OOh, this looks like fun!

Anyway, I think it's a stupendous work.

You lot will doubtlessly find it boring.

I'm wearing my lucky bright yellow 'ironic' DHL socks for the occasion.

This songs going on too long now.

Very of it's time.


Is this an Instrumental?




Sorry, just getting my practice in.

Bl*nking Ada, there are videos!

I'm in!

It's started!

Track 1 - Midnight Directives.

Organ!

Ooh ooh oohs.

I'm getting hints of Syd.

Bibbly-bobbly synths.

Maybe it's an xylophone?

Voice is too low in the mix.

I've just coped a look at the name of the album before this.

Epic orchestration!
