Dearest _, friend and fellow Inmate,

There are Cells inside the Asylum that only music can unlock.

While I’ve been underground building new Wards, new worlds, and new ways to stay stark raving sane in a mad one, I kept hearing a sound from long ago—it would wake me, always at 4 A.M.

The sound was the harpsichord solo that began the song that became the first key—the key that opened the door between me and you.

Opheliac was my first manifesto...my loudest and most perfectly ineloquent scream.

You likely already have it on a now unplayable CD—or somewhere deep in your streaming library—but I wanted to give you the highest-quality version, straight from my own master archive, to keep forever.

Click the album below to download—it’s waiting for you.

(Admin note: here's the link)

No passwords, no sign-ups. Just a gift for anyone who ever walked these halls by my side.

And yes, new music is coming. Because music was always the Master Key, wasn't it?

With all my heart,

~EA, Inmate W14A

No passwords, no sign-ups. Just a gift for anyone who ever walked these crumbling halls by my side.

And yes, new music is coming. Because music was always the Master Key, wasn't it?

With all my heart,
