From the opening track to the final notes, it is loosely a concept album based around the books of Immanuel Velikovsky, and our interpretations of Earths ancient history tuned to song.

“How cruel are the planets that stay there and conspire evil in their rage . . the planets conspire in rage against us.”

There was a period when the Earth was Moonless is probably the most remote recollection of mankind. Democritus and Anaxagoras taught that there was a time when the Earth was without the Moon.

“How cruel are the planets that stay there and conspire evil in their rage . . the planets conspire in rage against us.”

It all started as a tribute. A thanks. A return of inspiration. 

Jeffery Cain (Remy Zero) handed Steve Kilbey (The Church) a disc mysteriously credited to “Isidore.” Much to Cain’s surprise, what was once an instrumental came requited by words and melody sung in Kilbey’s distinctive baritone – a collaboration was born. 8 years later Isidore has reappeared! Life Somewhere Else is a sprawling epic featuring another sterling vocal performance by Kilbey (perhaps his best ever) and Cain’s sterling sonic alchemy. Though short enough to fit on a single compact disc, Life Somewhere Else is spread across four sides of 180-gram vinyl – the medium where the album’s sequence is enjoyed best.

Haunting and beautiful, Life Somewhere Else has a power beyond its corporeal form. 
It’s a masterpiece.
