Folklore

Rob Aubrey mixed and mastered it at Aubitt Studios, and credits also list Real World, Sweetwater, Ashwood and Regal Lane. The double LP (81:15) adds "Mudlarks" and "Lost Rivers of London" from the 2015 Wassail EP. Longdon sang lead vocals and played flute, acoustic guitar and mandolin, with D'Virgilio on drums, Spawton and Poole on bass and acoustic instruments, Gregory on electric guitars, Manners on keyboards, Hall on violin, viola and cello and Sjöblom on guitars, keyboards and accordion. The band wrote eight track-by-track posts in April and May 2016, none on the Transit of Venus song. Longdon described the title track as a bookend to Wassail, about oral tradition. It reached 5 on the Official Charts' Rock and Metal chart and 12 on the Independent Albums chart, but not the top 100. Prog's Jo Kendall wrote it takes a whimsical new route in storytelling, and ProgReport called it breathtaking and magnificent.
