Hey All, We finally made it out of the studio after three months working on three different projects in beautiful Penzance, Cornwall: 1) “One Day” – the instrumental album by Atlantæum Flood, which will be released on Schoolkids Records in November. 2) “Poison Stream” – the second MOAT album.

Winter in Königswinter
Christmas Day, Germany 2018. Here we are in the small Kloster Heisterbach graveyard where half a dozen untended graves, moss-ridden and illegible as to who are the inhabitants, lie worn and almost invisible in the grass amongst the trees. The monastery, built at the end of the 12th and beginning of the 13th century, flourished until the Cistercian monks’ suppression in 1803 and final destruction of the monastery in 1809. The picture, taken by Charly Wulff, reminds me of McDonald and Giles’ lone album cover from 1971 – or perhaps […]
