All the lyrics used on this album were written by Andrew Liles' (Nurse With Wound / Current 93) father, Michael Liles. They were discovered when clearing out his spare room after his death in 2017. The poetry was written sometime in the late 70’s and has been given a life here.

As with most Liles releases this recording covers a lot of styles, from heavy rock to psychedelia, and even a track that wouldn’t be out of place in a West End musical. It is a compelling album full of unlikely twists and turns, a unique homage to his father's memory and words. Contributions come from Karin Park, Faust's Jean Hervé Peron, ex-Mayhem frontman Maniac, and Mared Lenny (aka Swci Boscawen).

Ltd x 250 copies (between random colour editions). This is the deep purple / black marbled vinyl in the pink Dirter-only sleeve.
