Releasenotes:
William D. Drake and Onomatopoeia Records proudly announce the release of their
new long-playing record, The Rising Of The Lights.

The album's title is taken from a mysterious cause of death which plagued London
during the 18th and 19th centuries. Drake discovered the malady in a Victorian
medical journal somewhere among Venice's labyrinth of canals while on an Italian
tour. "I liked the sound of the words: it stuck with me". This said, The Rising
of the Lights is a work at the very peak of health. Whether it be the ancient
grind of James Larcombe's hurdy gurdy, rediscovered gems from The Sea Nymphs
project, or the curious fixation on disease, a spice of old time pervades the
new compositions. But this record could not come from a different artist, nor be
created at a different time. To quote 'Ornamental Hermit', titled from the
long-forgotten eccentric English practice of wealthy families keeping an
elderly, grey-bearded hermit within their grounds, The Rising of the Lights is
'overflowing with joy and with pain'.
