Skyclad "Irrational Anthems (Japan, TECW-25209, Teichiku Records)"

Irrational Anthems is an album by British Folk metal band, Skyclad, released in 1996; their sixth album in as many years. It was their first album without founding member Keith Baxter on drums and longtime guitar player Dave Pugh. The group remained a quartet, with Steve Ramsey overdubbing all guitars, and with the hiring of Paul Smith as session drummer.

The album marked the band's turn to a more folkier sound, moving away from the early years' thrash metal style.

The album title appears as a reference in the closing track "Quantity Time": 
Each moment in your company was of more quantity than quality. My hopes and dreams - transparent phantoms, this wayward son's irrational anthems.
It was released as a digipak and standard CD release.
