New album out now!

Several kind friends have pointed out that, while to me I seem to have been going on about this at tedious and self-aggrandising length, it's still actually quite hard for someone who isn't me to find out about it. Yay stealth marketing. So, here goes:

It was twenty years ago today*
Zander Nyrond told the band to play
And since then it's had a quality you might call hard-to-findness.
But he's rerecorded every song
So why don't you come along
And listen to the reimagined Filk of Human Kindness?

*All right, not today exactly, but this year.

Yes, friends, there's a new(ish) album of my songs available for download from Bandcamp.com, and clicking on the picture or the little verse above (no, I've never actually owned a copy of Sergeant Pepper, or indeed anything by the Beatles--odd that--so the scansion's probably all wrong) will take you to a page where you can listen to each and every one of the fifteen tracks and decide if it's worth ten squid of your hard-earned dosh. Songs include:

One! - a psychedelic journey through the orders of creation.

Rumour-Monger - as performed by Paul Bristow in the hit filk opera Before The Dawn. Well, close.

Sir Jock Of The Sword - yes, he's back!

Blue Madonna - the song of the story, from the Chronicles of Mershane.

and many many more, all re-recorded and most of them in completely new arrangements. Featuring one brand new song never before released on record. Comes with a PDF file that includes the cover picture featured above, track listing, full lyrics (which according to unalterable tradition aren't quite the same as the ones on the album) and the usual stuff you get in a CD booklet.

And if you like it, do please pass the word around. Tell your friends. Tell your acquaintances. Buy a t-shirt with the poster on it, or print this one out:



and bung it in your window. Help me overcome my natural modesty and sell this thing.

Thank you.
