"We are not taking this lying down. We have something to say and we are saying it. We dispute the plan laid out for us by other people.
You are allowed to enjoy music for what it is.
Our music is what we know and grew up with.
It is a part of our lives. Some of our lives have been long and some have been short. Our music is both remembrances of things past and our imaginings into the future.
We will not grow old as others grow old, we will simply grow.
Reality leaves a lot to the imagination; what we have done is turn imagination into reality"

Album
The current album ECILA is nearing completion.5 of the tracks have been recorded at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studio in Wiltshire. The remainder of the album has been recorded at Livingston Studios in London and is currently being mastered. The album takes the characters from Lewis Carroll's books and twists them into the fantasies and messages in the songs.
A well known promoter said in its publicity "If you want Jimi Hendrix on guitar ,Janis Joplin on Vocals, John Bonham on Drums and Flea on bass come and see The Ebony Tower". Who are we to disagree?
