“Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning.

Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance.”

From her last album Half Way Home, this live performance was recorded at Paradox/Incubate, on 10 September 2012.
Angel said of Half Way Home, “I think no matter how stable I am I will always be searching, I guess that’s what this album is about. The endless searching, the fruitless waiting, the idea of a home that is inside yourself.”
Her new album, Burn Your Fire For No Witness, is due for release in February 2014.
