Thank you for checking out my first solo album. I wanted to make an album of music unconstrained by instrumentation, genre, or anything else for that matter – just make an album of music exclusively catering to my own tastes. This is the result! I’ve been working on this for two years, and it has been the hardest, yet probably most rewarding, project I’ve done. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed making it!

The artwork was originally supposed to be a drawing. When I realised I did not have the skills to actually draw it, I decided to build it instead as a model and photograph it instead. Little did I know the time, effort and money this monster would consume. It took three months to make, and comprised of a 4x4x3ft handmade set with 30+ plasticine models. Of course, then I decided to animate the bloody thing to promote the albumā€¦

The vinyl comes in a gatefold sleeve with handrawn linernotes, illustrations and lyrics on the inside.

The CD comes with a 12 page booklet including the full gatefold album cover, and hand drawn credits, lyrics and sketches.

Both come with the digital download version as well as a small bonus pack of behind the scenes photos and the animations.

You can see the animations now on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/RobHarrisonMusic/” – Rob Harrison
