This album is the first album of new material by former insane picnic frontman Barry Lamb since 1991's "Seven Secrets". "Experimental music that will challenge your listening boundaries. This album is stark but with an ambient undercurrent. Influences are far reaching, as experimentalists such as Beaver & Krause, John Cage, Harry Partch & Amm meet alongside more contemporary elements such as PiL, Eno, Can and the industrial scene of the early 80's".

When composer and keyboardist Jasun Martz was touring with FRANK ZAPPA on his 1977/78 world tour as Frank's synthesizer programmer, Martz was also composing a symphony-THE PILLORY. The avant-garde, contemporary classical, experimental, prog rock, mellotron masterpiece featured over 40 musicians including members of Zappa's band (Ruth Underwood, Eddie Jobson and others).  The recording has been released on 4 different labels through the years and is considered a legendary release.  25 years on, Jasun has finally recorded the sequel and surpassed his original masterpiece with "The Pillory / The Battle" which is an astounding symphony comprising elements of emotive beauty, brash chaotic volume and moments of starkness. The 115 member Intercontinental Philharmonic Orchestra were hand picked from all corners of the earth by Jasun to perform this historic recording.
