Let's be honest with ourselves, 2020 has been dreadful. Ironically I was halfway through writing "Morning" when the world started to shut down in March - I was totally unable to continue it, the hope of revival in its lyrics seeming so far away. Afterwards I lost all my creative drive and was just thinking about surviving one day to the next - trying to still be useful while working remotely, taking care of our preschooler Penny with the daycares closed, and juggling all the stress and uncertainty on top of that.
But over time, as we adapted, pieces of inspiration started coming back to me. I had wanted to make something bigger with Albion for a long time, and I had also wanted to revisit The Day the Night Slept, which had been an experiment for me in finally recording my music. Putting these things together, it became a metal opera for multiple singers - I felt I could use this chance to collaborate with people and to pay artists who needed support during the pandemic (especially as I had the incredible fortune to have my day job unaffected). I worked both with close friends and people who I never even dreamed would appear on an Albion album - and as a result, I'm now proud to re-release The Day the Night Slept as a full expanded and recorded version!
Thanks to all singers and artists who contributed to this album, and everyone for supporting Albion's music. I hope that this small Christmas gift helps keep you going until the light returns for us all. Thanks to people's sacrifices and the incredible work in the medical community, morning is almost here.
