The Central Office of Information is presented as a sublime package. A misplaced communiqué from a shadowy department, the packaging playfully acknowledges the mystery inherent within the concept.
With an incredibly strong logo and artwork from the hugely in demand Nick Taylor at Spectral Studio, the hand numbered CD is housed in an extravagant printed manilla string and washer envelope with concomitant faux-photocopied sheets, puzzling hand-stamped inserts and lost/recovered ephemera - all playing to idea that this is a glimpse of something fallen between the cracks that you shouldn’t have access to. No two copies are the same.
It’s hugely effective and provides the ideal setting for Alex’s fantastically dry and knowing soundtrack.
The package also includes a sticker, badge and download card.

Being a child in the 70s and early 80s had a certain spookiness to it. Spirits seemed more readily available. I recall a homesickness which would haunt me even then, as if I were from another place entirely. Life's a mystery which childhood makes even worse, so let us revisit it in all its haunting creepiness.
Who are the "pocket pavilions"? I can find nothing more other than this one song, and it's a very good tune I really enjoy. Fire of Renewal
