We began this mission not long ago
How it concludes, now — that we cannot know
We’ve seen but a glimpse of what she can do
She can revise all that we thought we knew
A pheasant with clockwork wings
A sorceress pulling strings
She’ll tear the world apart
If we can’t stop her heart
She manipulates the tidal
Cycles with her homicidal,
Physics-changing incantations
World-destroying conjurations
I have no special power, courage, or might
But it’s no time to cower — it’s time to fight
I try to resist my rage, my fear,
I can’t back out of this, of what brought me here
I lean on the faith in things I can’t see
I don’t have an eighth of her lethal gravity
I try to resist my rage, my fear,
I can’t back out of this now that I’m here
She has spilled the blood of my dear friends
I’ll make her succumb to her own ends
She will fall, if she lasts at all
A pheasant with clockwork wings
A sorceress pulling strings
She’ll tear the world apart
If we can’t stop her heart
She’s wandered into my trap
I slam on the blasting cap
The ground underneath us shakes
The mountain behind her quakes
It’s time I embrace my fate
We both will incinerate
But I spend my final breaths
Defeating the sorceress

This time, there's really nothing to moan about! I've criticized the band's previous two albums for containing too much pointless improvisations, while, at the same time, I highly appreciated the brilliant songwriting. "Farmhouse Odyssey" have used the past three years wisely for perfecting the latter, and I like the way they root their music in the sound of the 70's, while avoiding the annoying stereotypes of this decade. I'm especially pleased to find a 12-minute track here, that doesn't sound like assembled from parts in the beginner's prog construction kit. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

Mysterious, yet nostalgic, Isolubilia is truly an ode to the romance found in the pursuit of a mystery. Musically rich in turbulence and serenity, majesty and humbleness, this album made me feel both lonely, yet understood as an isolated individual. Perhaps we're all fellow romantics, looking up at the same night sky, trying to wring our own meaning out of the stars. I hope that pursuit never ends. The John
