专辑简介

Graham Richardson's Last Days project returns with this 2009 full-length. Richardson has fully embraced his cinematic tendencies, expanding his creative palette to include spoken excerpts, a vocal collaboration with Fabiola Sanchez of Familiar Trees, and a script-based compositional approach. Drawing on a theme first explored in Sea's Arrival At Jan Mayen (in which its sailor is first excited by the prospect of a distant island home, then disappointed by its barren terrain), The Safety Of The North tells the story of Alice, her parents and their relocation to a remote northern land. Disappointed with the trappings of the city, they wish for a simpler, more rewarding way of life.
