Bright dirges from UDP's Man in San Francisco. Ballard enters the grave to surface at Evangeline Downs race track near Baton Rouge, Louisiana under a day-for-night sky. A longshot trifecta prophesied by its own fading newsprint pages…Stop Over Bombay…Continuum…Afterlife.

Includes three collaborations with Cedar Sigo. Wrapped in full-color fleur-de-lys mobius by Will Yackulic.
