"The realization that The Art of Obscurity is my 25th solo album prompted me to do some deep thinking about where I am, where Iâ€™m going and what I still want to achieve from this life in music. In my heart I feel vital and passionate about the creative process and that my best work is the next one I finish. It doesnâ€™t necessarily work out that clean, but for me, it can be the only touchstone."

-- Iain Matthews

The strife and the ugliness in the world is the outward manifestation of this troubled relationship we have within on a whole.”
“It's disheartening that animal people criticize societies that enlist the help of actors or organize creative acts like 'I'd rather go naked than wear fur,' to increase public awareness to our cause. These are great/courageous ideas which time has come! Liberation of animals is REVOLUTION - not elegant performance/ intellectual competition. We should do most anything to advance the animal rights cause. All the bickering may make the one step forward... TWO STEPS BACKWARD???”
