The new Toehider album is one song that lasts 47 minutes and 47 seconds.

It look me about 3 years to write and record it. It really came out great and it sounds like a sonic journey through the last 50 or so years of prog rock and metal.

Thematically it’s a comment on remembering. Where are our memories now? Do we even need to remember that

The new Toehider album is one song that lasts 47 minutes and 47 seconds.

It look me about 3 years to write and record it. It really came out great and it sounds like a sonic journey through the last 50 or so years of prog rock and metal.

Thematically it’s a comment on remembering. Where are our memories now? Do we even need to remember that much? Or are we trying to remember too much? Are we better off forgetting? Are these memories even mine? How?

The whole thing tells the story of a man, a woman, a huge bird, a dumb alien, and 2 boats that get modded to facilitate an outer-space confrontation.

There’s two different endings. One on the CD, the alternate ending on vinyl.

There's also an amazing animated video for a portion of the song based on Salty's characters, animated by Eleanor Evans & Giovanni Aguilar.

Thanks for all your support everyone

THE ALBUM THE FANS BUILT!

Over the last couple of years myself and Salty put together 40+ pieces and asked the 250+ amazing individuals on patreon to vote on which 12 songs were the absolute magic, the primary examples, cat's pyjamas, the bunyip's baps, the certified BEST of the lot to release to the public in the form of an album.

Over the last couple of years myself and Salty put together 40+ pieces and asked the 250+ amazing individuals on patreon to vote on which 12 songs were the absolute magic, the primary examples, cat's pyjamas, the bunyip's baps, the certified BEST of the lot to release to the public in the form of an album.

Yes, the songs on this album were hand-picked by the most hardcore Toehider fans. Brilliant! Also this release will be a first for Toehider as it will also be available as a double 180gram gatefold-sleeve vinyl.



--a note to the lucky people that got in early on the 24hr sale last year--
I printed some patreon-exclusive CDs to give out to Toehider patrons, and I had some spares leftover. I asked them what I should do with them, and they said "sell them!", so that's what you got. This new album "I Like It!" has some selections from that exclusive album you were lucky enough to get.

'I LIKE IT' is out on Friday 4 September
(Bandcamp release date will be updated every few weeks, it only allows pre-orders up to 90 days in advance)

*NOTE* Vinyls may take a little longer than the release date. This is due to the lengthy process of vinyl production/checking test pressings etc.

The new Toehider album is called "GOOD".

World-acclaimed singer/instrumentalist Michael Mills has gone all out on this upcoming release. Featuring his unmistakable, otherworldly voice and signature bizarre storytelling lyrics, this album runs the emotional gamut and will leave you in tears, both the sad kind and the GOOD kind.

I've been working extremely hard on the next release, entitled "What Kind of Creature Am I?". For those that know the music of Toehider, I can guarantee I've taken the eclectic craziness, diversity, haunting stories and humour all to the next level. I'd even go as far to say that it's my best work to date.

With all the goodwill from fans over the past year, I really want to give people the kind of album and packaging that does full justice to Salty’s artwork and your incredible comments about the music.

With your help, we've done just that. Thank you!

The first full-lengther by Toehider.

“To Hide Her, from memory, was an album we did about 6 months after finishing the ‘12 EPS in 12 months’ string of releases. The first side of the album were sonds I’d already been working on, but the second side was approached as another challenge – ‘could I finish 1 song per day?’ Turns out I couldn’t and I think I did 4 songs in about a week instead.

Visually this is still one of my favourite things Salty has ever done and to not do a vinyl release of this with large scale artwork is an injustice!”
