“Not a revolutionary narrative framework, perhaps… but a Frost* double concept album – who could possibly quibble?” There’s plenty that’s unpredictable about Life In The Wires

Frost* – Life In The Wires.

A dystopian reality where the individual is suppressed and controlled; and where actions are constantly under observation… A lone protagonist discovering a dissenting voice calling itself Livewire via an old radio… dreams of escaping an unsatisfactory existence and tracing the source of the broadcasts…
