Metastatic Liner Notes:


"The sub-Sinatra element in some of these is superb, a kind of lithiumed channelling of 'Frank's Wild Years', although at the same time conjuring electro-visions of late Liberace in heavy red-shift dopplereffect. Torchsongs for the anthropocene.   The Vegas loungeshow at the end of history."   Louis Armand



"This album cracks open the rusted fabric of our personal realities to reveal what lies within – and just as significantly, what lies without. So, prepare yourself to see something you knew was there but could never fully focus on. Tom gets it. Prepare to be haunted. Prepare to have your jaw broken by a slap to the face of unfathomable power."  Simon Fish
