Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
To live at liberty is perhaps the aim of us all, to live without authority or control, to observe freely, have the right of self-determination, and above all to have our stories told without prejudice or the judgement of intolerance rearing its ugly head as the world listens to a thousand souls yearning to be heard.

The lot of the toolmaker is fraught with the ebb and flow of time, for a period they can be busy making custom tools for society to grow, but when society consumes itself and refuses to invest in the talent that makes life worth living, then the Toolmaker’s Blues are there to be heard, to be seen, to be felt deeply and with regret on how the local community acknowledges that they have become stagnant and dulled by the pursuit of every purchase, every job and meaningful expression, to be given away for free.

It is in the simplicity of music that many battles are fought and won, the everyday alignment of words and images in a harmony that just catches the ear in a motion of peace and the result is that life can viewed as not being so bad; verging on pure, wholesome and more interesting than can be appreciated when revelling in self doubt and unjustified melancholy.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8/10
The soft delicate guitar fused with a the coming out of a serene waking dream and accompanied by a set of vocals that could lull you into believing all is well with the world is perhaps the only way in which to pay respect to Mark Harrison and his new album The World Outside.
