For the return of Cosmic Eye Records we are proud to present Adam Cole’s TRAPPIST AFTERLAND 10th album; probably his most personal and intimate collection of acid folk tunes up to this day. During the winter rains in the hills just above the Adelaide plains, Adam Cole wrote this bitter-sweet collection of songs. The album was sketched out between visits to his mother, as she slowly deteriorated into dementia. Visiting her, Cole made the 1,600 km trip monthly to his hometown of Kiama, on the New South Wales South Coast of Australia. It's during these trips, his mother passing, the breakdown of his marriage, and his eventual return living there, that these songs took shape, making this album by Trappist Afterland a celebration of the bonds formed over lifetimes. Cole is very conscious of appreciating the present and seeks confirmation that communion with loved ones is something to be treasured, even though such moments are sometimes fleeting. The album also honors the idea that new green shoots can always be found, even during the most turbulent of times in one's lifetime. “Evergreen – Walk To Paradise Garden” is an intimate album which celebrates "sucking the marrow out of life", appreciating each moment, growth, separation, healing from trauma, the joy had, and even relishing the dark night of the soul. - Paul Skeers (The Pleroma) Tune in!
