Theman Simpulse (2010)

‘Ignacious Pig Freak’

Theman Simpulse -”One of 2010’s greatest musical enigmas and oddities” Classic Rock Presents Prog

 ‘Those Men have crafted one of the most ambitious, original, and experimentally brave albums of the last thirty years’ – Sea Of Tranquility

Now reissued twelve years after its initial release. This edition is complete with original book containing the Theman Simpulse story, double album with 41 songs and narration by actor Sebastian Abineri (Killing Eve, Sherlock Holmes, A Bridge Too Far)

Using narration and diverse musical forms ranging from pop songs to prog epics, from ballads to comedy moments, from dance to new millennium psychedelia, ‘Theman Simpulse’ chronicles the four second journey of a middle aged man’s thought process in response to a question ‘ What’s the matter darling, you don’t seem yourself?’ asks his wife at the breakfast table. The catalyst for an odyssey of self discovery for Theman as he passes through varying landscapes in and outside his own psyche in search of the answer. From the fiery demands of a disturbing priest to surfing mercurially through spirals of his own D.N.A.From being passed out of his own body in a stream of urine to entering the unconscious and meeting characters of numinosity supreme. From being evaporated up into the clouds at the hands of the archetypal betrayer to rebirth in a rural idyll. In four seconds the man’s impulse buffets from question to answer in a relentless quest for self knowledge.
