The 7th album in an 18 year music career by Meiosis has landed. A journey through a fear of flying, through city life in New York, Berlin and Newcastle upon Tyne brings us to an emotional but uplifting occasions with a joyous celebration of the absurdities of life as we know it in 2016. It's wonderfully weird but somewhat oddly accessible.

Make a note to myself,
Some things never change,
I’ve been waiting for a long time,
Until this time comes of an age.
Pat him on the back,
Tell him, “If that’s the best you can do?”
There’s no point in coming back,
When you assume I acquitted you, didn’t you?
Follow your heart and your unmeasurable desire.
Blow them all apart and let the wind fuel the fire.
With all the airplanes overhead,
I will write to you.
When there’s freedom and respect,
I will call.
(Do you hear me call)
And you don’t have to run,
You don’t have to slog yourself over the hill,
You don’t have to follow some,
You’ve got your own free will.
The night is young & the days are long,
You don’t feel you owe it to yourself,
But with the Earth on hire, we could all retire…
To a future of wealth, health and self-worth.
Run around in circles,
Telling everyone, you’re “going straight”,
Your freedom of the city is coming soon,
And you’re running late.
With all the airplanes overhead,
I will write to you.
When there’s freedom and respect,
I will call.
