How long we must all wonder what it would it feel like to scream from the rooftops that This Is My World, that the decisions are mine, the simple exercise of traversing the land and not being tied by convention, by outdated dogma, of being led to our graves by those who have their own agenda, one in which seeks to control the lives of all that is within their sphere of direction.

There will be arguments in the years, even decades, ahead on how we observe the passing of time that history has placed us in, as 2020 rolls in 2022 and perhaps beyond for an indefinite period of time, of how we should commemorate, even lay to rest the moment When The World Stood Still.

Two sides of the same coin, both coming up heads and with wide brimmed smiles of comfort and insight radiating from in between the edges of American Folk; this is the place where a child of the atomic age rubs shoulders with the influence and study of far and wide culture, and the result is one of harmonious interaction and pleasing delivery, a significant spectrum of colour in a world that can at times find the coin landing edgeways on and confusing all who witness it.

The class just keeps flowing and surging through the releases under the extensive and noble effort that surrounds Finnish rockers Lordi and their seven series boxset Lordiversity; and three albums in the outstanding Humanimals takes its bow at the front of the pack and blows any thought of stagnation in the new year completely and utterly away.
Such is the strength of the songs that have burst forth that it can be seen as prophetic, almost visionary that it has taken such a band to do what others have failed to do in the past, continually deliver high drama, interest, and persuasion where others have faltered in their hunt for consistency over several albums in a short space of time.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
The word retrospective should always bring joy to the ears of the music lover. By its very existence it sounds more alluring, grander, more encompassing than the idea of a ‘greatest hits’ or the notion of a ‘best of’, for in its design it is surely meant to inform the listener of the totality of the music on offer rather than being picked as a crowd pleaser, an album which is designed to be in the charts rather than educating the intrigued with an entire catalogue of work.

How do we return to a starting point without it seeming as though we have come back to pay a debt or resume an acquaintance, the sure-fire way is to perhaps agree that unfinished business is a part of life, that it is not so much of a return, as an exercise in continuation, the added extra bonus chapter to a much loved and admired novel that no one was expecting!

A plan conceived when the clock is against you is one that will arguably make the old heart beat that little bit faster, and therefore be more memorable, than anything that is carefully and meticulously drawn up over the space of weeks, maybe months, and even years.

In A Town Called Nothing the Ghosts On Tape are worth their weight in gold, for in exposing the mystery that walks two worlds, the corporeal and the as yet unknown, we could arguably find harmony, we would certainly encounter spirit, and despite others believing there is some kind of morbid interest, a death hag stance in which the sound of the beyond interests us more than the joy of the living, it is that harmony of both worlds that inspires us to create art that encompasses both states of humanity.

Any form of art requires faith, from the person painstakingly producing the scene to which others are meant to be inspired, to the audience, singular or large scale, who are the hopeful beneficiaries of the human endeavour, who hope to be blessed by its appearance, by its magnificence.
