More information: “Every prog band worth their salt really should do a double album, shouldn't they?” asks Frost* frontman Jem Godfrey.? This was one of the initial ideas as the band’s songwriter/keyboardist/vocalist approached working on Frost*’s 5th studio album 'Life In The Wires'. The album is Frost* at its most ambitious, offering nearly 90 minutes of music over 14 exquisite tracks. The album is the brainchild of Godfrey who was inspired to create the conceptual world for the album based on the group’s previous release 'Day And Age' (2021).
Fans of the band’s masterful debut album 'Milliontown' (2006) will enjoy the band revisiting the style that made that debut album one of the most successful prog rock albums of the last 20 years, a fact that was not lost on Godfrey as he was writing this new record. “With 'Day And Age', we made it a very specific point: we're not doing any solos, we'll do clever arrangements. And we enjoyed that discipline, but this time I thought it might be good to row back on that position a bit. Plus I wanted to have a little bit of a nod to 'Milliontown' with this album, because it's been nearly 20 years since 'Milliontown' came out and I’m still proud of it. The 15-minute title track has a few of those 'Milliontown' moments in it which were great fun to do again.”
This is the 2 LP (Black) 180g vinyl edition in gatefold sleeve with 2 page insert and poly-lined inners.
