”Although flattered somewhat at the reviews and general reception
of our debut album Talking Trees S/T, I felt the songs and lyrics themselves
were evolving, tapping into a side of my songwriting which I had not been
aware of; a kind of subconscious stream of though moving in its own way.
”I had written a considerable amount of new material for our
follow up- I knew I had the right ingredients but they seemed singular,
oil and water. This continued until I was playing around with working
titles and 'delusionland' came to mind. This album could not have been
called anything else when I scanned the lyrics and realized that I had a
distinct theme running through. I arranged the songs and within one
day it all fell into place. I shifted to the Wildshine label and swam in the
new found freedom I had over my own work. It happened very quickly
and I hope that spontaneity comes across to you; the listener.
“I do like this album personally and feel that it is much more of a
‘that’s what I had in my head ' than our debut. I like it for its honesty
and believe it has that jagged edge which lifts the entire record into
another dimension completely.
“Go ahead and take a trip through my mind!”
