专辑介绍
厌倦了，之后呢？
我们看了很多人表达着自己对于世界的厌倦：身处异乡、流离失所、理想与现实断裂。于是我们要问一个问题：除了展露疲惫，我们可以如何透过音乐处理它？
这张作品试图回答着这个问题，而我们的答案是「土断」。土断的意涵并不仅止于字面上，人与泥土的断裂，也是是历史上，把外来移民编入当地户籍的行动。异乡的出现是故乡的离异，失落是出自于想象与实际的落差。在我们对于眼前世界感到失望的同时，也得渐渐接受这些离散与距离感，是生命意识必然的一部份。与其闪躲，不如真切的拥抱心理的失落，学习与痛苦共处，然后把眼界从对于远方虚幻的期待，拉回自己最单纯的存在：双脚站立着的现在。
于是我们继续眺望旭日东升、迎着冬季必然到来的东北季风、面对着自己脑内血清素的失调、不断地逐水草而居。正是因为失去了名为故乡的神话，我们才得以存在于每一个当下，自由地选择下一个应许之地的方向。
“In a universe suddenly divested of illusions and lights, man feels an alien, a stranger.” —Albert Camus
We are The Strangers, a post-rock band based in Takao, Taiwan. Our works explore the disconnection between selves and the world. Imaginative Habitation is our second album. It aims to look into the relation between our living habitat and ourselves during alienation and banishment. Four songs included in this album express four aspects of imaginative habitation. “Kyokujitsu,“ or dawn, and “Northeast Monsoon,” stand for two inevitable phenomenas of our surroundings: warmth and coldness. “Serotonin” describes mental disorientation, whereas “Migration” demonstrates one’s physical unsettlement. For a person in exile, the concept “home” is not inherited nor defined, but rather, imagined. Instead of pursuing unpromising myths and kingdoms, we say embrace now, enjoy pain, acknowledge our existence, and imagine our very stepping ground as our promised land.
