The Legendary Pink Dots 2025 Way way back in the early days I used to say a lot about The Terminal Kaleidoscope , a concept comparing the fragile planet we live on to a drowning human being with life flashing before his or her eyes, the images constantly accelerating. Its 2024, a little over 2 decades since the turn of this unbearably turbulent century and the concept appears to have become an unlikely soap opera where we are the cast. Lets hang in there..... - Edward Ka-Spel SO LONELY IN HEAVEN - THE CREATION So Lonely in Heaven is The Legendary Pink Dots second album since the World stopped for a Global Pandemic.With members scattered across three countries and two continents, our guilty confession is that quite a few Air Miles were consumed in its creation.Ideas were spun across Cyberspace for months, but the magic happened collectively in small spaces with the tape running. SO LONELY IN HEAVEN - THE MESSAGE The machine is everything we are. It sees everything, hears everything, knows everything and feeds, speeds, drinks us down, spits us out - we lost control of it at the instant of its conception.You may cough, curse and die, but the machine will resurrect you without the flaws, at your peak, smiling from a screen, bidding someone in a lonely room to join you.Its an invitation from Heaven, where anyone can be anything they want to be, but its a Nation of One.Youll be everything we are. Youll be a shadow of yourself. Youll repeat yourself- endlessly. Youll be desperate for some kind of explanation . Youll be lonely. So very lonely... creditsreleased January 17, 2025 Erik Drost- Acoustic and Electric Guitars, bass guitar; Randall Frazier- synthesisers, devices; Edward Ka-Spel - Voice, devices; Joep Hendrikx - live electronics, devices.
