As usual, the album is out first on Bandcamp and will be out on iTunes in just a few days.
We proudly present the conclusion to our pleasant little tale and introduce you to the incredible Jessica Singer who plays our AI Queen. I mean, all that really happens is that they all sit down and have a delightful cup of tea, but you should listen anyway in case someone inadvertently changes the narrative.
Let's connect! Here is where you can find me:
I liked it, but am I the only one who’s lost at what’s going on in the last song, or is that normal?
Is it still incest if you could seduce your own great-granddaughter?
This was a great album. I didn’t think it was really possible to show and not tell in a concept album until I got to Han Mi’s Lament; that was brilliant!
An excellent end to The Ballad of Lost Hollow.
Please tell me there will be a sequel. There’s till so many questions!
Just finished it, that was a fantastic conclusion to the Lost Hallow story.
I am curious if there are any plans to continue with Lloyd Allen and Han Mi or not?
This was great! Really mixed feelings about the ending; parts were devastating and parts were hopeful. It was great to see the characters and their relationships developed more, and of course it was super cyberpunk-y.
(Lurker here but thought I’d drop a few words to celebrate the new release and the end of the arc)
Absolutely worth the wait, this album is such an emotional rollercoaster, I hate it (in a good way) and love it at the same time, not the ending I wanted but an ending the story deserved. In this arc I think the Cabaret still remains my favourite, the Carnival grew on me over time and the Gala… it really makes me have that feelings stuff, especially Helen’s Lament and Sublimity (though the “Han Mi” track from the Carnival remains my favourite overall I think), If I were to look for a fault I wish we had got more vocals from Han Mi in this one.
Narratively (and I’m avoiding spoilers as hard as I can in case someone who hasn’t listened yet drops by) I always love the interconnections between the New Albion stories… and is that a connection to… that other thing… that I see in the last track?
Anyway, my housemates are going to have to get used to this one for a while as it’s going to be coming up for a good while, and I eagerly away your next work (no pressure).
Connections to “that other thing” were already established in “The Path From (Lost Hollow to New Albion)”… Raven makes mention of a certain someone in that piece that established just such a connection.
Oh? Oh! I missed that one. And I don’t mean the reference, I mean the track. I swear bandcamp notifications shouldn’t be going anywhere near to the spam folder so I have no idea how that happened. But yeah, it’s obviously there.
Wonderful ending! Didn’t see that one coming…
AAAAAAAHHHH I’M SO EXCITEEEEEEEEEED AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
