Strangers and Exiles was released by MapleNationWide/Universal and is in record stores across Canada
"Not a sound has been overlooked, and nothing is misplaced on 'Strangers & Exiles'. The complexity of the arrangements is oft times awe-inspiring and mind-boggling, and just grows more so with each listen. Full of surreal imagery, the folding repetition of lyrics adds to the pulsing, melting, and swirling beauty of the beast, for 'Strangers & Exiles' is a living and breathing thing. Welkin are polar opposites of The Mars Volta, yet the closest kin at the same time - a backwards statement that makes sense in the far-off universe that both bands exist in. Both will give fantastic visions, and both will give weird tripped out dreams should a person fall asleep to the otherworldly sounds of their music. Chalk it up to personal experience."
