presumably delayed until January so as to avoid competing in this year's Best-Of lists, which will (from my end at least) be fairly formidable
excited! especially considering yr strange scales & temperament hints

It was supposed to be called In Conflict but Fartland really speaks to me and I'm having second thoughts

i never thought in my life that the phrase "the stony hiss of cockatrice has cast us into serfdom" would be one of my favourite things to sing outloud so massive shout to you

Why do I feel like there are more than a couple Northern European metal acts who are cursing Owen for penning this lyric before they could?

Only a handful of albums of which, when listening to them, I'm still equally amazed and feeling blessed that somehow it exists in my lifetime and I got to know and love it. Heartland does it to me every single time.

i delayed listening to "in conlfict" for such a long time because i worried it would disappoint if it didn't measure up to "heartland." i ended up liking in conflict even more as it turns out, but this is still a special record.

<3 I'm working on a follow up to this album called Island, but I'm having to rewrite much of it because some of the lyrical material was ah too raw for me to manage, excising certain stuff that I don't want following me around. So far, it's long and slow and there are no electric instruments on it
― fgti, Sunday, 9 October 2016 19:48 (nine years ago)
I had a conversation with my brother yesterday about "the best album in our adult lives" and he insisted on aerial by Kate bush and I said heartland, ys or sound of silver, very much knowing the audience. He loved ys but hadn't heard the other two and has spent the day texting me about how fantastic they are. Man I fucking love heartland and in conflict.
