Liner Notes

Song title meanings: Jynweythek Ylow "Mechanical Music". Omgyjya-Switch7 "The first word is a swear word alluding to pleasuring oneself". Strotha Tynhe "To squeeze, to tighten". Gwely Mernans "Deathbed". Gwarek2 "Arch". Hy A Scullyas Lyf A Dhagrow "She shed a flood of tears". Kesson Dalef "Harmonious voice"? (NB “lef” means voice but “dalef” doesn’t mean anything). Ruglen Holon (This is probably meant to be something along the lines of “Rattle of the heart”, but it’s not correct Cornish so it’s unclear). Track translations from magakernow.org.uk the 'Cornish Language Partnership'. The title on the cover is stylized as "drukQs", pronounced to rhyme with "drug use" (druck queues). The titles on the spine and the discs are written in all lowercase instead of capitalizing the Q. One of the tracks has 2 different names depending on if you have the CD or the vinyl version. It's Penty Harmonium on the vinyl and QKThr on the CD.
