Hawkwind – Into The Woods 2017


We can now announce that the new album “Into The Woods” will be released by Cherry Red Records on May 5. In many ways, it is the perfect sequel to last year’s acclaimed concept studio album and live stage show, “The Machine Stops”, which was inspired by E.M. Forster’s Sci-fi classic, a dystopian vision of the future brought to life with characteristic Hawkwind style.
