A Light In Ethereal Night is the 5th studio release from Edison's Children. The band consider this to be the second installment in a trilogy that began with 2011's In The Last Waking Moments. That album told the story of a man distraught after experiencing something he could neither explain nor prove, left suspended between two incendiary possibilities: was his "alien abduction" real or has he descended into madness? The album's final track The Awakening ended without resolution.
A Light In Ethereal Night picks up the story where it left off.
Our protagonist returns to his farm to find an apparent extra-terrestrial crop circle of extraordinary geometric complexity. However, with every breeze, this crop circle disforms only to reappear. It’s symbols shifting every fifteen minutes with new, even more extraordinarily detailed patterns embedded in the wheat. Within hours. military convoys, news helicopters, and scientists have descended on the small holding. What was once one man’s personal torment has become a very public reckoning. First Contact is being played out across the world’s media - from the most-watched parcel of land on earth since Roswell.
And… the symbols… keep changing... Do “they” come in peace? Have they come to guide humanity forward, or is something far more sinister awaiting? The Truth is Out There… Disclosure of the 5th kind is hidden in the wheat.
Rick Armstrong says, We want the listener to feel what it would actually be like, not wonder from a distance. We want them to experience the mix of awe and dread… the electric atmosphere you’d feel rising up out of the ether!
Pete Trewavas follows up, The moment the world descends on that farm, the story stops being about one man and becomes about all of us. The intimacy of the story explodes into something enormous. As a musician, that kind of intense dynamic shift is everything.
Edison’s Children have woven voices of prominent UFO, UAP & OVNI investigators directly into the album’s soundtrack, not as a novelty but as testimony. Giorgio Tsoukalos, David Childress, Jason Martell, and William Henry from the ground-breaking and much-loved History Channel show Ancient Aliens contribute to the album. It gives the narrative genuine weight and places A Light In Ethereal Night in a category of its own.
Eric Blackwood says, We wrote the first album when this subject still made people uncomfortable. Much has changed. Governmental documents are being declassified in a monumental movement dubbed “Disclosure”; astrophysicists are now concentrating on anomalous areas of “high strangeness”; and a significant number of people are demanding that our governments become more forthcoming and transparent. This album feels more relevant today than ever. The world has caught up with the story we were already telling.
The wheat is still moving. The patterns are still shifting.
