Illusory Truths by Leyden Jars

Personal and political (the two are inseparable), this set of songs and sounds have grown with us through some trying times. Metabolist in approach, the songs have continued evolving, adapting to changes in environment and interpretation through alternating performance and recording. What became Illusory Truths was inspired by Cooper Bowman at Altered States Tapes getting in touch about a potential release. Time to commit to tape. Illusory Truths is made of rage, resilience and the need for hope in the most hopeless seeming of times.

Gobeithio…
Cyn bo hir…
Rhaid i ni wneud rhywbeth…
