Albums
Animals and birds are getting wiped out and the IML is concerned. Really concerned. So with this album we wrote songs and dedicated to them to a small number of those most in danger. We ask all downloaders to perhaps pop by the
World Wildlife Fund and make a donation in return for this sumptuous music. Listen on
Last.FM,
Jamendo or
Soundcloud.
Released September 2011
We went into enemy territory with this album, exploring themes harder than any themes we've ever explored before. The result is perhaps are most consistent album to-date. Despite a band size numbering in the teens and 14 tracks, this album, perhaps more than any of our others, sounds like we all got together in a bunker, and recorded it together. Attention!
Released December 2010
For this album we explored the worlds frequented by the wondrous Arthur C Clarke in many popular hardback books of the 70s and 80s alongside popular unsolved tricksy tales of ethereal happenings.
Released August 2010
This album entered a new world for the IML. By opting for two themes at once we stood the chance of getting completely mixed up but oddly there turned out to be lots of consistency. We knitted the tracks together with a short story for the first time (though there was a beautiful spoken word track on Superheroes of the Sea). This album contains some of the heaviest and some of the most sensitive moments from the group yet.
Released December 2009
Space turned out to be a killer of a theme. Unsurprisingly the topic created a lot of reverb, electronica, large noises and tiny tiny noises. Perhaps our most sonically coherent album, Superheroes of Space was probably our biggest party record. For specialist parties. This also formed the last album of what came to be known the Superheroes trilogy.
Released June 2009
That not so difficult second album. The sea conjured up stories of monsters, explorers and less freaky members of the natural world. We welcomed in some new members for this album and had our first full band collaboration with Windy Old Weather. We also kicked off the concept of changing who was running the ship to see how that would effect the end result.
Released December 2008
Our beloved first album. We wanted to pick a theme which we figured all the musicians that we were working with would be into. At this stage, we knew personally all the people involved with the project so knew we’d be safe with science. It turned out that the scientists that surrounded the science all had fascinating stories behind them, making it a lot easier to make emotional music about science than we’d imagined. And funny stuff as well.
