More information: Signals is a celebration of Hawklords' 18 years as a recording and touring act since rebooting in 2008 and a reflection on the last 50-plus years of British space-rock music.
Featuring atmospherics, pile-driving drums, loops, bass playing and guitar lines to blow your mind plus exotic flute, the album is a trip through time to a past 'then' from a future 'now’.
Includes Hawkwind and Hawklords co-founder, the late Nik Turner on a song called WOTUGONADO (which sounds as if it fell through a wormhole in space from 1970).
The project is written by Hawklords co-founder Jerry Richards, alongside long-time writing partner and band member, Fred Reeves (aka Dead Fred), both of whom are former members of the legendary British rock band Hawkwind.
It includes a heartbreaking dystopian poem entitled Ganymede FM, which charts the flight path of an interstellar craft whose captain is now "lost to time". It also features the gorgeous 'Ave-like' chant of Stranger in a Strange Land which, at over 10 minutes in length, floats between this world and other dimensions with seminal flute performances from Bebe Aldridge and sublime guitar playing from Jerry Richards.
