Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
Eventually all is peace, even in the mind of the author and scribe who have spent their entire lives creating worlds that are mirrors to our own, or satires and punishments that the written word can hope to destroy lethargy, corruption, exhaustion, and intolerance, all must be that we become like the sturdy mountains of old, resolute, finite, towering over the lives of the people below…silent as sunlight watching water evaporate.

Words are powerful, they are the cornerstone of communication, without them what is intimated is often lost in maelstrom of contact, an empty e-mail expecting the reader to understand their task, a map without context, a song with no feelings or regrets…words are the basis of conversation and mean the world in a place of silence.

Only when it is completely dark, do you realise how much you have neglected the stars.
Neglect is everywhere, in love, in decency, in hope, in time, it is the silence that accompanies the memory that we are so busy making sure we stay afloat, that we have forgotten to see the potential above us; and whether it is born out of destruction caused by others, or by our own feelings of damage, of desecration of the spirit by the darkness we allow to stop us from seeing others in the heavens.

It could be the fault of the listener, after all tastes change and styles must evolve, and for the most part a music lover will go with the flow so far, and then discover quite by accident that their appreciation has waned; what they held dear has become an untethered support, it has become a drama of expensive cool.

It makes you wonder how many artists are forced to downplay their true vision just have their creation even in the public domain, how many writers allow a significant event to be pulled, how many painters are told to lose a certain temperament, what percentage of musicians are told if they wish to have their belief heard then they have to allow it to be altered by the studio, the P.R. machine, or the one who pricks their thumbs for the contract to be signed in blood.

What was once familiar will always come round again, only this time with an edge to it that will the reminisces feeling overwhelmed, and the new sound embracing the time-honoured as if it was a frequent visitor that had all the answers to the questions being asked.
From The Jam to working alongside a captivating frontman. This is establishment of the genius that Bruce Foxton has come to signify, and in his partnership with Russell Hastings has flourished accordingly, and the strength of their time together on stage has only enhanced what is evident in their new album, The Butterfly Effect.

There are those that understand, and then there are those who are wrong. To willingly open up and admit that the soul is suffering is not the act of misery, or the excess of emotions that some will describe as wallowing in self-pity or indulgence, it is heroism, it is accepting that the blues are part and parcel of a life that requires growth after the despair, of the personal unhappiness, and that even to be seen as melancholic is a finer attribute than to be shown as a sneering, unfeeling monster whose appalling lack of empathy for another human being in distress is revealed as those who lack judgment, who only wish to revisit constant harm upon the soul.

Observation, too few find their wit and their senses keen in the face of distractions, the constant barrage of noise masquerading as information, the titbit veiled as highly classified data, the softly whispered moment of gossip acting as evidence in trials and judgements, we have become deaf to the art of listening, blind to the reality of our existence and partnerships and struck dumb in an age of mass communication; this a truth of our moment on the spinning rock we call home, we see everything through closed eyes believing that our memory is untainted by others in our orbit.

Things Can Change…we must believe that, for everyday for the better, sometimes for the worse, we are presented with the truth of those three words, the power of their conviction and their universality. The understanding that we are immersed into a large overwhelming society where there are people that will go out of their way to provide fear, loathing, and hatred in the hope that your life can spiral out of control, is to only love those whose heart explodes with meaning and sincerity more.
