The New Album
Dear Friends,
It is with great excitement and anticipation that we can reveal to you details of the release of our second album. Way back in December we reported back on a successful recording session and since then we have put the finishing touches to an album we are proud to let out into the big wide world. We didn’t anticipate for it to take such a long time, and we fully appreciate your patience!
The record is called ‘He Who Saw the Deep’. It looks like this:
Track listing:
1. When We Were Kings
2. A Father’s Son
3. We Saw the Deep
4. Hope is not Enough
5. Progress is a Snake
6. These Feet of Clay
7. Sirens
8. Sea of Regrets
9. These Broken Bones
10. A Divorce Before Marriage
11. Doves
Now this is the important part. We can’t do this without you.
With the new album comes a new approach to releasing it. The record will be released on our own record label called ILR. In order to make this a reality we have set up a project on a website called Pledge. This is an exclusive opportunity not only to get your hands on our album before it hits the shops, but also a plethora of other iLT goodies. These range from album artwork posters, lyric books, guitar lessons and vinyl only box sets. For a complete list of what we’re offering you, take a look around our Pledge page.
We have set a target for the money we require to set up the label, master, manufacture and market the record. No money exchanges hands until the target is met. Simple.
In other less exciting news, Simon has broken his leg. We will be drafting in a last minute replacement drummer for our Rock Herk festival show on the 17th of July. Details here www.rockherk.be.
Get well soon Mr Fogal.
With love

A very small update….
Just to let you know that contrary to what our website has been saying for the last month or so, we are not still stuck in Belgium, we all all safely home.
That is all for now,

Stuck in Belgium…
Day one: Set off early in the blazing Yorkshire sunshine, clear roads all the way to Dover, passports – check, Channel calm as a sheet of glass… France, Belgium… high spirits… then the trailer carrying our gear broke – one side of the A frame shearing fromthe body of the trailer. Fortunately it didn’t detatch itself fully and we pull onto the hard shoulder intact… wait for Belgian rescue which arrives with little delay (take note AA and RAC)… some to-ing and fro-ing later and we are recovered to Gent and have a plan for trailer-repair by a trailer-maker in a nearby town(!) called Kalken… but not until the next day which means that post-repair, we won’t have the approximate 12 hour road-time needed to get to Graz in time for the first show… resigned, we hunker down, tired, at a motorway rest-stop… sleep… sleep.
Day Two: Awake in sunshine – roadside ablutions then trailer and touring party relocate to said town for repair and recuperation – estimation of repair time 2-3 hours… ample time to consume ample quantities of chips drenched in mayo… the story continues…
