COSMOLOGY VOL. 1 (ORANGE MARBLED VINYL)
Coloured 12 Inch
Inspired by the teachings of The Earons (thats .22, .18, .33, .69 and .28 to the uninitiated, see www.earons.net for more background), a splinter group was formed earlier this year, with the express mission to bring back the message and connect it to a whole new audience. >Land of Hunger< is given a 2012 Reconstruction from The Cosmologist, a sturdy rework performed by the mysteriously concealed outfit, who identify themselves only as .40, and .44.

Meanwhile, in the real world, David Cameron’s politics take us ever deeper into a 70’s era depression with the Blues showing their true colours by putting rampant socially divisive individualism back on the agenda. These jams serve a timely reminder of our need for some Earons style Love and Positivity. It’s gonna get tougher, but no matter how hard it gets, even in a Land of Hunger people are Always Dancing. Try as they might to switch the lights off at the party, they can’t stop the music...
