FAR CASPIAN Autofiction hails from 2025 and is
a limited edition and hand numbered (350 copies) LP pressed on Blue and White
Vinyl amd singed on the back cover! Autofiction,
the new album from Far Caspian, comes exclusively pressed to blue and white
colour-in-colour LP with gatefold sleeve and pull-out poster, limited to 350
copies and hand-numbered to order. Far Caspian is the moniker of Joel Johnson
and the record is about Joel learning to make peace with the cards he’s been
dealt, following his Crohn’s disease diagnosis in 2021. It addresses mourning
the loss of his life before, struggling to cope with not only his new reality,
but also an ongoing battle with OCD and anxiety. Autofiction finds the
Irish musician discovering the tools he needs to keep moving forward. “I’m now
at the point where I don't really let it define me,” he says. “The lyric ‘your
mind changed from a fear to a song’ [on ‘Lough’] is my expression of freedom:
to no longer be held down by something you’ve got used to. I’m trying to not
even make sense of it all, but just live in it, and be grateful for the things
I do have.”
