My last album was recorded and released mid-lockdown during a global pandemic; Since then the world seems to have been taking on an increasingly surrealistic tilt, and ol’ Tom makes more and more sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn some ways the album is split down the middle: I’ve been playing in that folk-horror style for a while, and that’s still there (dream-making birds from the Mabinogion and the worst night of a rabbit’s life, etc.), but also it’s moving on to dally with science-fiction and esoterica (meditations on the set-theory afterlife, and pioneering rocket scientist-cum-Thelemite Jack Parsons, etc.). Around the time a lot of those were written I was reading a lot of pulpy science and strange fiction - by coincidence several that dealt with various ideas surrounding the concept of infinity. And so the album enters from the cosmic void and exits through the galactic plane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI’ve always felt a strong pull to the world of the weird, and I don’t think there’s a lot weirder than infinity: the product of a division by zero. Something that compels me about experimental and instrumental music has always been its ability to give form to the otherwise inarticulable. But I also believe talking about the meaning of it all sort of ruins the point. So I think about Tom O’Bedlam, who could either be a prophet or a madman. But if it sounds good who cares, we all get divided by zero eventually anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Redeye Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":51998443405525,"sku":null,"price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0299\/7534\/7333\/files\/201375044736.jpg?v=1757368095","url":"https:\/\/goner-records.com\/de\/products\/gwenifer-raymond-last-bight-i-heard-the-dog-star-bark","provider":"Goner Records ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
