THE UNIVERSE

The Outer Void Intrepid Sailor

2006-01-09

This concept album is the brainchild of brothers Lachlan and Gus Franklin (“Architecture in Helsinki”). The narrative tells the fantastical story of an average man, who is chosen to pilot a supercraft to the far reaches of deep space to establish whether there is an end to the universe…and if so, what lies beyond? Influenced by the Beatles, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, ELO and Brian Eno.
