about

"The eleventh day of the eleventh month in the eleventh year of our new millennium sees the arrival of MEMBRANES the most recent release by Matt Lord in the non-linear song jacket of his invention POEMS IN STONE.
When asked about the title of the new album ML had this to say:
"I've been thinking about the passage of time and the movement of our brains in that space and it seems to me that our very beings are passing through, in a pretty constant fashion, all manner of doors, gates and walls that we can't perceive with our usual senses. It feels like I'm going through membranes of a vast material, it makes me want to sing these songs."
The record is split between a solar and lunar side.
The lunar side is typically wabi sabi in it's texture having been recorded in a dilapidated agricultural barn in rural France.
By way of homage to the ceasing of the Mayan calendar ML composed the 16 minute opus PSYCHODUCT which takes up a good chunk of the solar side. This piece is an invocation of the Mayan King Pacal Votan and takes it's name from the tube that ran from his burial chamber to the very tip of his pyramidic tomb. For this ML enlisted the help of fellow noise workers Joey Chainsaw, Alice Kemp and Mike McInerney.
MEMBRANES is the second release by POEMS IN STONE for onec records." - Onec Records.
