KINGDOM OF KENT
Oh how the seas are bleeding with human blood
Ships full of anger, washed and wrecked in the mud
They're coming, they're fighting
Gnarled and all hell-bent
They're landing, expanding
They want the Kingdom of Kent
See all the men stripped naked on this land on the edge
No food or water or shelter can we pledge
The Romans have left us
It's now our own defence
Shore up our beaches
Save the Kingdom of Kent
You know we'll never see a time like this again
Beauty of green
The Garden of Eden was not as beautiful as this
Our love of this Kingdom is threatened by arrows and rods
We just can't stand by as they plunder and tear down our Gods
Gather your children and hold them to your breast
The castles have fallen, they never seem to rest
Our bloodlines infected
The purity has died
Our leaders desert us
The politicians lied
You know we'll never see a time like this again
Beauty of green
The Garden of Eden was not as beautiful as this
Our love of this Kingdom is threatened by arrows and rods
We just can't stand by as they plunder and tear down our Gods
Now we are running and hiding from their chains
Nothing but blood-lust is rushing through their veins
Our children are captured
Living in torment
Shields battered, skulls fractured
We've lost the Kingdom of Kent
You know we'll never see a time like this again
Beauty of green
The Garden of Eden was not as beautiful as this
Our love of the Kingdom is threatened by arrows and rods
We just can't stand by as they plunder and tear down our Gods

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper

They played a wonderful set at Summer’s End in October 2018 which was based around this album . For me it was one of the sets of the weekend. The record is a wonderful permanent reminder of the show. Tony Honour

got recc'd this on youtube and loved it- reminds me a lot of late 60's and early 70's records i used to hear playing out of my parents' stereo on sweltering summer days. OPAL
Throwing mathcore, emo, and ambient into the mix, Estonia's Kaschalot push progressive rock's multitasking approach to its limits. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 10, 2021

Though only their third studio album release, these veterans have been around for almost fifteen years--and they keep getting better with each release--which is hard to manage since their quality of compositions, performances, and production have always been top notch. A band that really should be heard! wafiii
