about

Your Time Will Come is the debut album by Like Angels, the new solo project of How to Kill songwriter/guitarist Robert McLean. The 88-minute long double- disc album features 8 genre-defying guitar-driven instrumental pieces, continuing on his work creating soundtracks, soundscapes, visages and movements in How To Kill, but defining this collection as separate from the work he does with the 4 piece band, as he has composed and performed this collection solo.
Not long after the release of the How to Kill debut album (Like Angels 2010, which is where Robert has culled the name for this project from) the band went on hiatus following the Christchurch earthquakes. McLean leaving for Wellington, where he concentrated on his writing. During that time, he wrote/edited ten books, including 2019's Enduring Love, his collected poems. Returning to Lyttleton he re-ignited his involvement with music, both with a reconvened How to Kill and on his own.
With the band as a live vehicle, the solo work took a different but related direction: whilst keeping the cinematic expansiveness, the unusual rhythmic intensity, and sonic nuance of How to Kill, the developing demos had a wider range of references and broader sonic palette. Like the music he was listening to at the time - Bitches Brew-era Miles Davis, Krautrockers Can, mid-70s King Crimson, This Heat, Loop, Bark Psychosis, Talk Talk, early PiL, and African Headcharge, the tracks on Your Time Will Come unfold organically and gradually, but with purposiveness and drive. The album's pieces unfold in sections, using rhythmic and melodic motifs. Rather than being composed before being recorded and arranged, they developed organically and experimentally as the process unfolded. And even with influences as diverse the Afro-Beat of Fela Kuti and the black metal of Altar of Plagues, it has a definite mood and character: Your Time Will Come has a cinematic scope and emotional charge, often evoking the feeling of being at sea: the ocean's vastness, depth, and power, and our fragility compared to it.
Your Time Will Come ranges from the hard- driving Plantagenet Kings (Mohua) and New Day, the apocalyptic prog-infused post-punk Fountain of Youth (Destroyer of Worlds), the epic centrepiece Finisterre, This Burning World's focused ecological rage, the tectonic almost mystical movements of Cù Chulainn in Starlight, Your Time Will Come's unapologetically uplifting anthemic rock, and the classic synth, odd-time drum 'n bass drums, and Godflesh-esque guitars of Year Zero. Put it on and play it loud.
